Simona $20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Valrico, FL
Hi! I’m Simona, a sophomore at the University of Tampa, where I’m an Honors College student majoring in Criminology. Working with children has always been something I genuinely love. I’ve been babysitting and serving as a camp counselor since I was 14 years old, and for the past two years I’ve also been teaching swim lessons to children of all ages. With over five years of experience caring for kids, from infants and toddlers to school-aged children and teens. I have worked with children of many different personalities, abilities, and needs. I’m patient, responsible, energetic, and committed to creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment where children can learn, play, and thrive. Whether it’s helping with homework, planning engaging activities, preparing meals, or simply being a dependable caregiver, I always strive to make every family feel confident and comfortable while their children are in my care.
Jeannie $20 per hour for 1 child
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."
