Hey there, my name is Jenny. Nice to meet you! I have been working with Urbansitter since 2013, and I have made meaningful connections with families over the years. Though I’m currently pursuing a doctorate in Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine, I still find joy in babysitting when my schedule allows. I’m known for being patient, goofy, and communicative. My professional background is rooted in hospitality and technology, but I’ve always had a passion for working with kids in diverse settings. I coach volleyball and volunteer as a camp counselor at The Painted Turtle Camp. I’ve also had the privilege of tutoring elementary school kids via Reading Partners and mentoring with Access Youth Academy. Each of these experiences has enriched my ability to connect with kids and support their growth in fun and creative ways.

Hi, I’m Michelle! I’m an experienced nanny and household assistant who has cared for children of all ages (from newborns 4 days old to teens). Through UrbanSitter, I’ve worked with 15+ families, completing 100+ bookings that have included recurring schedules, 8+ hr shifts, overnights, travel support, and last-minute care. Families value my ability to smoothly manage siblings and multi-age groups while keeping routines balanced and fun. I try to be a calm, reliable presence as well as flexible and communicative. I support children’s daily routines while keeping them engaged in meaningful play and activities. I like to offer choices so kids feel heard while staying within safe, supportive boundaries, and I aim to keep days active, balanced, and screen-free. I love arts and crafts, reading, outdoor play, and hands-on activities, and I’m also happy to incorporate Spanish into daily routines! My style is adaptable, and I’m happy to follow each family’s preferences! I’m glad to help with errands, driving, and household tasks, and I’m also available for travel, events, and backup care. I’m CPR/First Aid certified, a safe driver with two Evenflo Revolve car seats (can be rear or forward facing), and comfortable caring for pets as part of the family’s routine. Whether you need regular care, date nights, travel support, or a reliable backup, I’m here to help and make things easier for your family!

I have over 30 years of childcare experience both privately and professionally. I am a homeschool parent to 4 young children, including 3 teenagers. While I was in college to obtain a bachelor's in education, I worked as both a nanny and in a daycare for the local school district. I believe that children are full humans deserving of the same respect we would give any adult. I prefer gentle parenting and guidance in lieu of punishment. As a mom, I am well versed with the complex inner workings of running a household. I cook, clean, and everything else for my own family. As for pets, I am a proud kitty mama and have assisted in raising over 50 neonatal kittens as a foster volunteer.

Hello, my name is Allyssa, and I am a current grad student at San Jose State University pursuing my dream of becoming a Speech Language Pathologist. I pride myself on being responsible, reliable, and full of energy, especially when it comes to working with children. Being the oldest of four, I have gained extensive experience caring for children of all ages. Back home in Orange County, I had the opportunity to work with up to four different families, ranging from ages 1-15 years old. Now, I am actively seeking part-time and one-time job opportunities that align well with my academic commitments. In addition to creating a joyful and engaging environment for kids, I can also handle meal preparation and provide homework assistance. On a personal note, I had the privilege of playing collegiate soccer, highlighting my dedication and teamwork skills. I am fully vaccinated and more than happy to share excellent references upon request. Looking forward to the chance to connect soon!
