Hi! My name is Jawariya, but you can call me J. I’m a 28-year-old marketing professional with 11 years of hands-on babysitting experience. I’ve cared for children of all ages, from infants to pre-teens, and have worked with families both regularly and on an as-needed basis for evenings, weekends, and special occasions. My background includes years of consistent babysitting, as well as early experience through high school and college. I’m confident in my ability to multitask, keep children engaged, and maintain a safe, nurturing environment. Fun fact- I was in nursing school for 3 years and made a career change to marketing during COVID! I’m reliable, flexible with scheduling, and happy to provide references upon request. Feel free to reach out with any questions.

Hi! My name is Ornina, and I’m currently pursuing a career in Radiologic Technology. I’m a responsible, patient, and hardworking person who genuinely enjoys working with children. I’ve been babysitting for almost six years and have experience caring for children of different ages. Over the years, I’ve learned how important it is to create a safe, comfortable, and supportive environment where children can feel happy and cared for. I’m dependable, attentive, and always make sure to treat every child with kindness and respect. I also believe in encouraging good habits, creativity, and positive behavior in a fun and age-appropriate way. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and help make your childcare experience easier and stress-free. Please feel free to reach out with any questions!!
“Great babysitter/nanny, very engaging with the kids!”

"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."
