Hi – I’m Jen! I am a young professional working for a local insurance brokerage firm doing Health & Benefits Consulting for companies. I am looking for a fun way to earn some extra money. I love kids and decided to try Urban Sitter. I grew up with a younger brother & sister (twins), as well as many younger cousins. My first job was babysitting family and neighbors. In high school I became a nanny for 3 elementary aged girls. My most recent experience has been with newborns/toddlers. I have a 6 year old niece and a 3 year old nephew, who I am very close with (they would give me rave reviews). I also have friends who are new parents. I enjoy playing with kids, doing crafts, being creative and if the weather is nice heading outdoors. I would be more than happy to help with homework and/or tutoring as well. I look forward to meeting you and your kids! ***Depending on location/date/time I may require a minimum of 4 hours for bookings. Thank you in advance for your understanding!***

Hello! I'm a 35 year old that is very active and creative. I've been babysitting, nannying, dogsitting, and housesitting for over 20 years. After college in 2013, I was an Au Pair in Madrid, Spain. I've worked with children of all ages from 2 months to 15 years of age and have watched over 200 children. These jobs have included homework help, driving to activities, cleaning, park visits, crafts, diaper changes, giving medication, cooking, feeding, bathtime, bedtime, etc…you name it, I've done it! I have also done many overnight stays while parents are away. I enjoy babysitting because children are always learning and imagining, and I love to be a part of their growing process! I love to be outdoors, read, do yoga, hike, ski, explore, be with friends, travel, bake, write, and try new things!

Aloha! 😊 I’m Geeneave, but I usually go by GG. I am 31 years old and have had many years of experience as a sitter/nanny since I was 16 years old—from newborns to teenagers for family, friends, neighbors, and agencies. I’m also a mommy to a beautiful 6 year old gal! ✨ I have many different hobbies of indoor and outdoor activities. I absolutely enjoy doing makeup and trying different foods, arts & crafts, gardening, playing volleyball, singing & dancing, and traveling. My rates are flexible—starts at $23/hr per child and an extra $1/hr for each additional child. I have my own policy of a 2-hour minimum for a flat rate of $55. As for child transportation, it will be an additional 0.65 cents per mile if driven in my car. If you have to cancel, please give me a 24-hour notice or there will be a $25 cancellation fee. I understand things happen, so the 1st cancellation booking will be waived. P.S. I am vaccinated and can provide proof. Mahalo for taking the time to read about me! ♡ *Flexible w/ rate & availability posted*
