Hi, I'm Fiona. I'm from the UK but I've been living in the US for 7 years. I’m offering child care and senior care. I have been working with children for over 20 years in many different settings. I've taught music and dance classes to mums with little ones, taught dance in Primary Schools, been a full time nanny to a beautiful baby boy from 3 months until he was 2. I cared for a little girl from the age of 3-5. We loved baking together and going on outside adventures. More recently I was the director of a thriving children's ministry for a church. I was in charge of the welfare, curriculum programming and entertainment of over 150 children between the ages of 0-11 every Sunday. This included a nursery. I was in this role for 5 years. I have an undergraduate degree in Dance, and a Masters in Writing for Children from the University of Winchester, UK. Right now, I work for an organization where I write Bible studies for children who struggle with reading, helping them to engage in creative ways. I've also taught seated dance classes in senior homes across London. I spearheaded and intergenerational project called "Connecting the Generations", bringing little ones and seniors together through music and movement. I love to sing, dance, bake, read stories, and spend time outside. I aim to see those in my care thrive. I always bring approachability, warmth, patience, and fun when I'm looking after kids and seniors.
Mom to 10- and 12-year-olds. Love kids, host neighborhood friends, and care for them all. Active, creative, responsible, and patient. Warm, dependable presence who creates a welcoming home. Enjoys art, movement, and meaningful connection, balancing fun with structure and thoughtful guidance.
I’m a recent college graduate who recently moved to Los Angeles. I’ve spent my summers at camp, first as a camper and later as a counselor, where I loved helping create the same meaningful experiences I had as a camper. I also have experience tutoring students throughout high school. In my senior year of college, I took an elective that partnered us with a local school, meeting weekly with a small group of students — it quickly became one of my favorite classes, and solidified my passion for working with kids in educational settings.
Hi! My name is Maggie and I am a 26yr old NC native that’s been in LA for 1.5 years. I’ve worked with kids of all ages my whole life as a tutor, nanny, summer camp counselor, lifeguard, babysitter, and aunt of 4 toddlers. I have a full license and clean driving record. I love arts and crafts, cooking and doing anything outside.
Hello. My name is Bridget and I am new to Urban Sitter although I am a lifelong caregiver. I’ve worked with all ages, including babies, children and seniors. I’ve worked in many different settings, including the mainstream Kindergarten and First grade as academic and classroom support, as well as a Paraeducator in special education supporting one specific student throughout their school day, ages 5-12. Both of these were at Elementary School level for the past 10 years, Also, I’ve worked many summers in the district campus daycare with babies aged newborn to two years old, as well as in the preschool with ages 2 1/2 to 5 years old. I’ve also tutored middle school students, both mainstream and special needs, in the home setting during distance learning. Prior to this, I’ve worked in the theater and stage setting as an actress working with oral deaf children learning to use their voices with confidence and breath control. We used the stage as a tool for projection. These children were aged 4-12 years old, and I worked with them after school and on weekends, on and off, for years. Personally speaking, although I am a single mother of two young adults and one about to be, my earliest and greatest on the job experience came when I was 10 years old, and was older sibling to a to a one-year-old baby sister, and newborn baby brother. Real hands-on learning while carrying the most precious cargo. I would also like to add that I think and act in real time in every situation. Over the years I’ve had to utilize emergency life saving techniques five times, such as the Heimlich maneuver, and CPR, all with life-saving results. On one occasion even stabilizing a stroke victim while waiting for medical help to arrive. I take everything very seriously, but I also like to have fun. I love to make people laugh, and kids and the elderly love to laugh with me. I also housesit, do housecleaning, and pet care as needed. Thank you very much for your time. Sincerely.

"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."
