I am a mother to three beautiful girls ages 13, 22, and 26. I also have an adorable 1.5 yr old grandson whom I spend a lot of time with. I have been working as a caregiver for seniors for the past two years. I love working with and helping people of all ages. I practice patience, kindness, and love in everything I do ❤️ I provide care for a senior on Mondays and Fridays, so my availability is limited to Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. I am currently booked with a family through May, but will be available to additional families beginning in June.
“100/10! I wish we could have Suzanne here everyday! She is so attentive with the kids, and comes ready with activities to keep them engaged for the day! They are already asking for Miss Suzanne to come over again :)”

I was a bilingual / ESL teacher for 10 years and have plenty of experience working with children from ages 5 and older. I love the spontaneity and unpredictability of working with kids. I have a dog of my own and plenty of experience with animals, as I also have been a volunteer at PAWS no kill animal shelter.
“Paul noted that he recently joined Urbansitter and our booking was his first sitting job via Urbansitter. He showed up on time, was friendly and jumped right into playing/watching our son Miles who really enjoyed spending the time with Paul. Paul is attentive, punctual, fun, flexible and friendly, definitely would hire again!! :)”
Rashida $18 per hour for 1 child
Hello! My name is Rashida, and I have a deep passion for working with children. Over the past five years, I've gained extensive experience caring for kids in various settings. I've had the pleasure of working in daycare, infant preschool, and elementary schools, specifically with children from kindergarten through fifth grade. Throughout my career, I've developed a strong understanding of child development and have honed my skills in creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for children of all ages. I believe in the importance of fostering both educational growth and emotional well-being, ensuring that each child feels valued and supported. My approach to childcare is centered around patience, creativity, and consistency. I love incorporating fun, educational activities into our daily routines, whether it's through interactive games, arts and crafts, or outdoor play. I also prioritize open communication with parents to ensure that we are working together to meet the unique needs of each child. I'm dedicated to providing reliable and compassionate care, and I look forward to the opportunity to support your family and contribute to your child's growth and happiness. Thank you for considering me as your nanny! Best regards, Rashida

"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."
