Hi my preferred name is Remus. I’m an 18-year-old high school senior with years of hands-on caregiving experience. I’ve spent much of my teen years helping care for my family, and at gatherings I’m often the go-to babysitter, keeping kids safe, entertained, and engaged. I’m also very helpful with elder adults, assisting with daily tasks and providing companionship. I’m reliable when it comes to cleaning, organizing, and maintaining a tidy home. I have a genuine love for animals and am comfortable caring for pets as well. I’m patient, responsible, and dedicated to creating a safe, positive environment for everyone.
“My kids absolutely loved Remus! ”

Hi! My name is Faith, I’m 22 years old and I am currently in my final year of nursing school at IUPUI. I am the oldest of 4 girls, and have tons of baby cousins, so I’ve pretty much been a babysitter my whole life. I am CPR certified and I am interested in Pediatric Nursing. I have so much love for children and teenagers. I can help with tutoring in math, and I can also help run errands, if necessary. I also do not mind taking kids to and from practices, or picking them up from school/daycare.

"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."
