My name is Hope, I love working with kids and helping their family and I am also a twins and I have three dog named Woody and Blue and Ben and their are Labrador and labradoodle and this is my first babysitter because I am going to post University in the Fall to studies Early Childhood education.
I’m a mom of 5 kids and grandma to 10 kids between the ages of 2 and 17. I have many years of nanny experience and I was a stay at home mom for many years as well. I am easy going, flexible, warm and caring. I am CPR certified and a very safe driver with a clean driving record. I love to read with kids and get them outside. I am currently only looking for occasional jobs.
I am a caring, dependable, and experienced caregiver with a passion for creating safe, nurturing, and organized environments for families. As a mother of five grown children, I have many years of firsthand experience caring for children, managing a busy household, supporting different stages of development, and creating a home environment built on patience, kindness, and consistency. Now that my children are grown, I have the flexibility and availability to dedicate my time and energy to supporting other families. I bring the perspective, maturity, and confidence that comes from years of parenting, along with a genuine love for helping children feel safe, valued, and encouraged. My background also includes wellness, holistic living, household organization, and preparing nourishing meals. I enjoy creating structured routines, helping with daily activities, preparing healthy snacks and meals, keeping spaces organized, and providing the thoughtful support that helps a household run smoothly. I am patient, reliable, and attentive to the details that matter. I enjoy engaging children through creativity, outdoor activities, learning, cooking, and encouraging curiosity. I am also comfortable assisting with light household tasks and caring for pets. Families can count on me to be trustworthy, responsible, warm, and proactive. I take pride in becoming a dependable presence who helps make everyday life easier and more enjoyable for the families I support.
I am a certified teacher who has 25 years of experience as an educator. I offer child care and senior services. I am certified in ages birth to six grade. I can tutor your child in reading and writing. In addition, I am skilled at addressing the social-emotional needs of children. In addition, I have provided senior care for my dad and grandmother. I can provide services such as cooking, running errands, and companionship ( walks, playing board games, etc.).
Hi! My name is Tori Lawson, I am 20 years old and I am going into my senior year at the University of Alabama. I am going back to school on August 14th so I am completely available until then. I have experience babysitting my younger cousins, I have been babysitting them since I was 13 years old. I also worked as a counselor for a summer camp. There, I was taking care of children ages 3-14, while mainly focusing on children ages 6-10. I am absolutely a dog lover!! I have a small shish tzu at home, but am very comfortable with dogs of any size and age! I also take care of my sister’s cats when she is away from home so I would be comfortable helping out with cats as well. I do not have any experience in senior caretaking, however I would love to help out with driving to appointments, cooking dinner, or other tasks the job may require. I am also happy to work as a household assistant with cooking, cleaning, or whatever you might need!! One thing to know about me is that I am currently majoring in psychology, as well as minoring in sociology and neuroscience. I plan to continue my education and pursue a career in child psychology, where I will be able to help children work through problems and guide them to a better future for themselves.

"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."
