Hi parents! I work as a nanny for a family already but would love to talk about occasional opportunities when I’m available! I have experience with working with kids as a babysitter, nanny, respite worker and behavior therapist working with children anywhere from four months old to eighteen years old. I have around 3 years of experience working with kids with developmental disabilities including nonverbal kids with AAC or PECS devices. I’m very outgoing and love going to farmers markets, a park, Legoland (have a yearly membership since I go with my niece so much) or anywhere really! I also love to be at home sometimes to relax and read, build lego sets or participate in creative hobbies! I love doing puzzles, magnet tiles, building forts and basically anything the kids love to play. I have two large dogs and a cat so I’m experienced with taking care of animals and always willing to learn for any other animal to help take care of them! I’d be happy to help with pick ups/drop offs, taking kids to the park or elsewhere and getting to know your kids hobbies so I can make sure to have fun stuff for us to do and talk about while I babysit. I would be open to discussing how I can help you with daily life while babysitting as well! Please feel free to reach out with occasional opportunities!
“Kiara was incredible with our baby. Very attentive to his needs and made us as parents feel very comfortable. ”

Hi my name is Amanda, I’m 29 years old. I’m the oldest of four. I joke I’ve grown up with a baby on my hip for as long as I can remember. Early Childhood Education is my passion. I’ve been working with children at different capacities for the last thirteen years. Most of my work with children involve babies 2 weeks to 24 months, however I have experience with all ages. I have worked as a one on one nanny, in a childcare center. Most recently I work at the YMCA as a lead of the Child Watch center for the last four years. I enjoy the challenge and journey of helping a child grow and helping to shape their minds. I’m very caring, present and quick thinking. I’m CPR and first aide certified, I renew every 2 years.
“Amanda was early, kept great communication before meeting me, and was very professional and great with the kids. I would hire her again and I highly recommend her.”
hello! My name is Taylor. I am 26 years old and have over 10+ years experience in babysitting, nannying and day care work with children ranging from infants to middle schoolers. I love being able to hang out with the kids & help them in any way possible! I currently work as a behavior technician with children in schools! As a behavior technician I implement ABA strategies to help children! I’m good at engaging children through multiple activities in order to meet their educational & physical needs. I am CPR certified and first aid certified! I am also fully vaccinated! I am interested in a occasional nannying position. I am located in San Diego! I am able to start ASAP!!
“Taylor is the best. 2 minutes after meeting her I felt so comfortable leaving my 3 month old with her. My daughter had a great time playing with Taylor every day. Taylor really helped us out over a period of 2 weeks where we needed childcare. I only wish we could use her full time. We will definitely be asking Taylor to babysit again!”

"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."
