Currently experienced in caring for a 4-year-old girl and a 2-year-old boy, providing attentive care while supporting their daily routines, development, and individual needs My previous experience working as a unit clerk in an ICU at HCA strengthened my ability to remain organized, dependable, calm and attentive to important details. Understand the important of safety, communication, responsibility, and following instructions carefully. I am bilingual in English and Spanish and enjoy creating a warm, positive environment where children feel comfortable, cared for, and supported.
Hi! My name is Destiny, and I am a college student that is patient and reliable. I truly enjoy working with kids. I offer child care, light help with home tasks, and help with simple homework if needed. I have experience with infants, toddlers, school-age children, and pre teens, and I love doing fun activities like crafts, reading, outdoor play, and learning games. I’m comfortable helping with routines, meals, and keeping things organized. I also enjoy making easy, healthy meals. I always make sure children feel safe, supported, and happy.
Hi there! My name is Lilly and I am thrilled to be considered for the role of making your family's life just a little bit easier. Before I was anything I was an older sister, my experience with childcare began with two significantly younger sisters I still play a large role in raising. In addition to my personal experience, I have worked in volunteer roles as a tutor and summer camp academic instructor in a local children's home and with Hillsborough County Public Schools (if you need a homework helper, I'm your girl!!). In addition to the basics like CPR, I would say I'm formally certified in the arts of snack distribution, copycat Broadway performances of the songs from whatever show or movie your kids can't get enough of right now, arts and crafts and schedule adherence. I also am more than willing to tidy up while I'm over! (I'm great at cleaning too... not to brag or anything...) In terms of pets, I'm a lifelong animal lover! Cats, dogs, exotics, I love animals big and small! I have experience with dogs, guinea pigs and other rodents, fish and hermit crabs specifically (as my own pets over the years). However, I have cared for many cats before and if I'm given a care instructions list, I'm confident I can make friends with any critter.
Hello UrbanSitter Families! 💕 My name is Tamara, and I would love the opportunity to care for your little ones! I’m 46 years old and have over 20 years of experience working with children from infancy through age 17. My professional background includes working as a Prevention Specialist, where I taught Interpersonal Cognitive Problem-Solving (ICPS) skills to preschool-aged children. I am also trauma-informed and have more than 15 years of experience working with high risk youth. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Human Services and am passionate about helping children learn, grow, and thrive in a safe, nurturing, and supportive environment. Whether you need an occasional date-night sitter, girls’ or guys night out, time to run errands, or simply some extra support for your family, I’m here to provide dependable, compassionate, and quality childcare you can feel confident about. I am also certified in Infant and Child First Aid and CPR, giving parents an added layer of peace of mind while their little ones are in my care. I would love to connect with your family, learn about your childcare needs, and hopefully become someone you can trust and rely on. I look forward to meeting you and your little ones! 😊💗 — Tamara
“Tamara was wonderful with our 5-month-old. She was engaged and attentive the whole time, followed our routines, communicated clearly, and was right on time. It was our first time hiring a babysitter and she made us feel at ease. We will definitely book her again. Highly recommend!”
Hi there! My name is Angelica and I’m an experienced caregiver with a background in early childhood education. I’ve worked as a teacher assistant and a toddler teacher at Best Friends for Kidz Daycare. I’ve also been a babysitter for several wonderful families over the years. As of June 2026, I will have an associates degree in general education from Hillsborough Community College. I also a mom to a sweet 2 year old, who occasionally joins me for care at a reduced rate of $15/hr (optional, and entirely up to parents). Currently, I babysit for a family every Friday caring for a 2-year-old, so at this time (2026), I’m unavailable Fridays before 5 p.m. I’m kind, patient, loving, and trustworthy, with a reliable car, CPR certification, and fluency in Spanish. I’m happy to provide references, including my long-term Friday family I’ve been with since October 2024. If you’re looking for someone dependable, nurturing, and engaging to care for your little one, I’d love to connect and see if we’re a great fit! Thank you for your time and consideration!💛

"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."
