“I had a wonderful experience with Emily. She is kind, reliable, and truly cares about the children she watches. My son loved spending time with her, and I always felt confident knowing he was in great hands. I highly recommend her!”
Growing up my grandma owned a daycare and I would help her take care of kids and plan arts and crafts time for them. I also have recent experience over the past 2 summers of working at a stay away camp looking over multiple different age groups of kids over the age of 6 full time. After my first summer I was promoted to leader of my cabin group and have learned to keep things together, better my communication, and still keep kids happy! Pets wise, I have 3 cats and a dog so I know how to manage!
My name is Yasmeen! I’m a medical student who genuinely enjoys working with children. Through my studies and experiences, I’ve developed strong communication skills, patience, and an understanding of child development and safety. I love creating a positive, supportive environment for kids, and babysitting allows me to combine my passion for helping others with the joy of caring for children. I have experience with kids from infancy through toddlerhood and am passionate about meeting the unique needs of each age group and engaging environment for every child I work with.
Hi families! I’m a bilingual, Spanish-speaking individual with over six years of experience in the healthcare field, specifically in chiropractic care, and I have a strong passion for working with children. I hold an Associate’s degree in Science and am currently pursuing further education. Although I haven’t worked as a professional caregiver, I’ve had the joy of caring for children in my family and among friends, ranging from ages 1 and older and it’s been an incredibly rewarding experience. I’m detail-oriented, reliable, and always eager to help others. My faith is a cornerstone of my life, and I’m actively involved in my church’s youth group. In my free time, I enjoy spending time outdoors, going on walks, exploring new coffee shops, and experimenting with cooking and baking. I love trying new things and creating meaningful, positive connections with those I care for.
I am currently a freshman at Elmhurst University in Illinois, and play for the volleyball team. I am studying marketing. I grew up in Las Vegas and attend Bishop Gorman High School. I come to Vegas during school breaks and work there as well as in Elmhurst. My older sister has two kids that I have been helping with since I was 11. They are now the ages of 7 and 1. I drive now so I take them to their extracurricular activities and entertain them with fun activities including crocheting, knitting, painting, coloring, playing outside, as well as cooking. I am super comfortable helping with running errands and cleaning around the house. I have 2 cats and 3 dogs so working with animals is no problem! I love playing with animals as well as taking them out for walks!

"UrbanSitter has supported my needs for reliable and joyful sitters. Whether it be for work, recreation or last-minute emergencies, we've made wonderful relationships with local sitters who have become a part of our family!"
Natalie O., mom of five

"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
