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.
“Armani was a great sitter. She was communicative, caring and our little one said he had a great time with her. ”
Hello families! My name is Tracy. I’m a mother, grandmother, and experienced caregiver with a background in pediatric nursing. I’ve spent many years caring for infants, babies, and toddlers and truly enjoy supporting children during these important early years. My pediatric nursing education and clinical experience gave me a strong foundation in child safety, health, and early development. Families often appreciate the calm, confident approach I bring to childcare, along with the added reassurance of my medical background. As both a mom and grandmother, I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable and confident with the person caring for their child. I focus on creating a warm, safe environment where children feel secure and supported. I’m very comfortable with infant and toddler care, including feeding, diapering, nap routines, and supporting developmental milestones. I enjoy reading with children, outdoor walks, music, and play that encourages curiosity and early learning. Parents often tell me they feel at ease leaving their child with me because I’m calm, attentive, and experienced in recognizing children’s needs and keeping them safe. I live in Seminole and am currently available for part-time childcare with infants or toddlers.
Hi! My name is Emily and Ive been working in educational childcare since 2018 with a focus on children with intellectual and physical disabilities. Im going to USF for speech pathology and would love to babysit for your family. I am CPR trained. I do my best to avoid screen time and will opt for low stimulation shows when possible! I have my own car and no speeding tickets, so Im willing to help with pick up and drop off or any other driving based errands. I love to read, paint, and try new recipes and would love to share that in an age appropriate way, especially with themed arts and crafts options! I grew up going to Montessori schools so that philosophy is very important to me. Please let me know if you are interested and I am flexible on pricing!
I have a BSW (Bachelor of Social Work) from USF. I am a licensed Realtor . I like to stay busy and have volunteered for over 30 years with a local hospital. Since Covid, I am not longer doing that. My greatest joys in life are my two sons and six grandchildren. I am active and enjoy taking my grands to the park and the pool. I also enjoy helping home schooling them. I have volunteered at my church for years, often taking people to doctor appointments and chemo. I have my own car and am able to run errands if needed. I love cats and dogs. I enjoy walking dogs. The last dog I took care of, Sunny, needed long walks. We did 3 miles a day plus. This was in Idaho. Not sure that is practical in Tampa in the summer.

"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
