Hi! I’m Shellita, a college graduate with 4+ years of experience providing occasional babysitting. I’ve cared for children through family and church settings and enjoy helping with date nights and as-needed care. Reliable, patient, and attentive.
“Shellita was absolutely amazing! Kaiden connected with her instantly, and she interacted with him so gently and thoughtfully. She’s incredibly kind-hearted, responsible, and nurturing—not to mention perfectly on time. Kaiden woke up raving about how much fun he had with her! Her positive energy was unmatched, and we can’t wait to have her back in our home. Highly recommend!”
Hello! Thank you for viewing my profile. I'm Kayla Spain, 25 years old. I have recently graduated from Alabama State University, majoring in Biology Pre-health. I have been caring for children since I became an older sister to my younger brother. I became a babysitter on a regular basis and also was there for my younger cousins as well. I have a lot of experience working with infants and toddlers. I've worked for a daycare at the age of 14- 18 where I prepared meals, developed lesson plans, and also maintained a safe and clean environment. I honestly love working with young kids and I make sure it's my mission to make sure they are keeping a smile on their face.
“I've worked with Kayla a few times now, and she has been wonderful each time. She is very reliable and so patient with my little guy. Always punctual and quick to respond, which I really appreciate. I'd gladly work with her again!”
Hi! My name is Kennedi! I am seeking employment where I am able to utilize my skills and experience. I am Reliable, dependable, and hardworking with effective communication skills. I have about 3 years experience of exceptional care and support for families. Also I've just had my own baby so experience definitely comes with that as well. I am eager to learn with the ability to adapt quickly to any situation. I love building strong bonds with children and communicating with parents also creating nurturing environments, fostering child growth. Some of my skills include organizing activities, managing household tasks such as laundry, dishes, etc., preparing meals and more. I also have my own car. I am Adaptable, responsible and passionate about childcare. I am committed to exceeding expectations as a family's support system!
I'd describe my personality as fun, attentive, and caring. I like working with kids because I grew up in a pretty large family and love being a part of the development and growth of children! I love seeing the moment a new skill or trait clicks for them, and I love helping them turn into the people they were created to be! I started working with kids in middle school through babysitting and working in the church nursery and kids classes. I currently serve as the deacon of kids ministry at my church and regularly serve in child care on Sunday mornings. I worked as a full time nanny for a few months after graduating college. I've been babysitting and nannying off and on since then, and most recently worked as an afterschool program coordinator with elementary and middle school students. I have experience with all ages, but especially love to care for toddlers and young elementary. In my spare time, I like to read lots of fun books, watch movies, and go for walks! I also love music and love to attend concerts in the Atlanta area!

"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."
