I know how hectic life gets and I am here to make it a bit easier for you. I assist in keeping busy families running smoothly by providing caregiving services to those you love the most. My educational background in psychology and over 10 years' experience in human services ensures that you have someone working for you who will keep your loved ones engaged, safe and happy. When you choose me, you are choosing someone who will become an extension of your family. That is able to assist with not only the fun things but also those issues that are more challenging. As someone that believes in work hard play hard I can often be found relaxing on a Gulf Coast beach on my down time. I look forward to working with you!
I come from a family with two younger siblings and two older siblings, so I’ve always been around and comfortable caring for children. I’ve also volunteered with children through dance and community programs. Living on my own for the past year has helped me become very responsible and independent, especially with cooking, cleaning, organizing, and managing multiple tasks at once. I’m outgoing, kind, patient, and dependable. I’m comfortable keeping children entertained while also making sure they are safe and supervised. I’m able to multitask, stay calm when things get busy, and complete responsibilities in a timely and safe manner. I’m also bilingual in English and Spanish and am comfortable caring for children of different ages and personalities.
Hello everyone, my name is Sophia and I am currently a student at the University of South Florida! I am offering child care, senior care, pet care, and household services. I love babysitting and being around kids. I volunteer at an elementary school every week, providing tutoring services in English. Fostering educational and learning opportunities for children is important to me--I am open to providing tutoring services during babysitting shifts. Beside tutoring, I also am part of a subbing agency where I work with children from ages 1-5. I am dedicated to creating safe and comfortable environments for your children while you are away. I also have skills in cooking and crafting. I also have experience pet-sitting. Responsibilities included walking, feeding, bathing, and keeping company. I love all animals, but dogs and cats are most up my alley! I volunteer for a senior care agency, where I call seniors with chronic illnesses 2-3x a week to check up on their physical and mental health--fostering real relationships. I do not feel comfortable providing medical care. Responsibilities I would be open to provide: Driving, running errands, cooking, and spending time with them. Feel free to message me with any other specific responsibilities you are looking for! I provide many household services: cooking, cleaning, laundry, organizing, etc. I will not be able to bring my own supplies, so they will need to be provided.
I go to college at University of South Florida and I am in school to become an elementary teacher! When I was in middle school up to my sophomore year of high school I would volunteer at my old daycare and was a teacher assistant. I am very passionate about becoming a teacher and working with children is my favorite thing to do. I loved playing with and creating lesson plans for the younger children and it inspired me to become a teacher.

"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."
