Hello, I have over 7 years of experience working with children, primarily infants and toddlers. I am certified in CPR and First Aid and have completed 17 units in Early Childhood Education. I am passionate about nurturing and caring for babies and take pride in creating a safe, loving, and engaging environment for children to thrive. I am comfortable with working in homes with pets, as I have several of my own. I look forward to the opportunity to meet you and provide excellent care for your little ones. Best regards, Natalie
Hi, I'm Asialynn and I’m 29 years old. I truly believe in the power of caring for others. My journey started young, at 15 years old, when I began looking after kids for family and friends. I've had the joy of caring for little ones from ages 1 all the way up to 10, and it's always been a special connection. I love kids, and they love me back. I'm all about jumping into fun activities with them, whipping up tasty meals, and even keeping things neat with cleaning. A great example of my commitment is the three years I spent regularly caring for a family friend's daughter, from when she was two until she turned four. Beyond the younger set, I've also dedicated myself to caring for the elderly. For the past year, I've been a caregiver for an elderly lady with Parkinson's, and before her, I supported another wonderful senior. In these roles, I handle everything from preparing comforting meals and assisting with bathing and cleaning to running essential errands for groceries and medications, and even attending doctor's appointments. What really drives me is seeing the difference I can make. I genuinely love taking care of people, and I always aim to leave things better than I found them. It comes from a good heart, and I pride myself on being truly genuine in every interaction.
I have worked closely with multiple families providing attentive and compassionate care for children of different ages. My responsibilities have included planning age-appropriate activities, preparing meals, managing nap and bedtime routines, school drop-offs and pickups, and maintaining a clean and organized environment. I focus on building strong, trusting relationships with both children and parents while supporting children’s learning, independence, and overall well-being.
Hi! My name is Elizabeth! I am 22 years old and have been working as a classroom aide with students on the Autism spectrum for almost 4 years now. I have experience in toileting (changing diapers/pull ups), preparing snacks/lunch, and am willing to drop off/pick up children from school. I am caring, kind, and dedicated to ensuring the best possible care and comfortability for both parent and child.

"UrbanSitter is my go-to for quality sitters! I can book weeks ahead of time or easily find a same-day sitter when in a bind. I even hired a part-time nanny during a daycare transition. Customer service is helpful and babysitters respond in a timely manner."
Laura F., mom of two
