I am a dedicated and experienced mother with hands-on caregiving experience across all stages of life. I am highly adaptable, patient, and organized, with a deep understanding of children’s developmental, emotional, and daily care needs. I also have experience supporting elderly family members, providing compassionate assistance, companionship, and help with daily routines. My background includes managing a household with pets, ensuring a clean, safe, and nurturing environment for everyone. I am skilled in multitasking, time management, meal preparation, light housekeeping, and maintaining structured yet flexible routines. My personality is warm, reliable, and attentive, with a natural ability to anticipate needs and respond calmly in dynamic situations.
Dependable, conscientious, empathetic retired English language tutor enjoys caring for seniors and tending pets. I have been a full-time care-giver to my elderly disabled mother at home. In addition to senior care-giving, I have raised one dog, one fish, four rats, and four cats. Before starting a family, I earned my first master’s degree in library science. My interests include hiking, reading, and gardening.
I am a doctoral student in clinical psychology. Native fluency in English, Cantonese, and Mandarin. I am offering childcare and language tutoring services. I enjoy being a babysitter and have experience in caring for infants, toddlers, and kids. I also have professional experience in working with kids with neurodivergent and mental health needs.
Hi I'm a mother of three and grandmother of two--and my daughter in law is also expecting baby #3! I'm offering child care. I owned and operated my own shipping and packaging service center- and then became a full time stay at home mom! Currently, I am a teacher's aide and noon/lunch duty supervisor and babysit part time, via app. I'm very allergic to cats, and I never use harsh chemicals or scents (sensitive to these) in my home cleaning. I'm available on a part time basis while my children are in school or afterwards, as well as Saturday/Sunday. Currently, while my 13 yo daughter is on summer break I'm available mornings and afternoons and she would love to join me in babysitting.
Hi! I’m Michelle :) I am currently a graduate student enrolled in a school psychology program. I have 7+ years of working with children (2-18y) with special needs in private settings and schools. I’ve also babysat for family members and friends. I am offering childcare and household services, such as laundry, school pick-ups and daily errands. I love music ( I’ve taught my sister how to play the piano!) and all things sports. If you’re looking for someone who’s very involved with play and conversation, comfortable with behavioral needs, or someone who can be kind yet firm, I’m the one for you!

"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
