Hello, Imm Allison and I am a 42 year old living in Olathe. I have been here for 11 years. I moved here from Iowa to be close to my niece and nephews, who are now 18 and 14. I am a paraeducator at an elementary school in Overland Park. I have been doing that for 11 years now. Prior to that, I have worked in daycares and as a private nanny. I enjoy working with kids if all ages. In my free time I enjoy babysitting. I love the outdoors whether it's playing games, sports or simply just going for a nice walk. I also love swimming. I also enjoy playing board games and reading books to children. Other than babysitting, I enjoy reading good nin fiction books, spending time with friends and family and thrifting.
Hello! My name is Taylor and I'm 23 years old. I’m new to Kansas City, and I just began a part-time job as an Emergency Room tech at University Health downtown. I’m also pursuing my Master’s in Public Health and will graduate in December. I graduated from Mizzou in 2025 with my bachelor’s degrees in Health Science and Spanish, and my ultimate goal is to become a Physician Assistant. I haven’t babysat since I was a teenager, but I have 4 years of healthcare experience where I’ve taken care of patients of all ages. I am certified in CPR and Basic Life Support. I even had the opportunity to volunteer in the NICU at University Hospital in Columbia, MO. I’m organized, reliable, and look forward to providing your child with safe and entertaining experiences. ¡Hola! Me llamo Taylor y tengo 23 años. Me mudé recientemente a la cuidad de Kansas, y acabo de empezar un trabajo de medio tiempo como técnica de sala de urgencias en University Health en el centro. También estoy cursando mi maestría en Salud Pública y me graduaré en diciembre. Me gradué de la Universidad de Misuri en 2025 con mis títulos universitarios en Ciencias de la Salud y español, y mi meta final es ser asistente médica. No he trabajado de niñera desde que era adolescente, pero tengo 4 años de experiencia en el sector de atención medica, donde he cuidado a pacientes de todas las edades. Estoy certificada en RCP y soporte vital básico (SVB). Incluso tuve la oportunidad de hacer trabajo voluntario en la Unidad de Cuidados Intensivos Neonatales (UCIN) en el Hospital Universitario en Columbia, Misuri. Soy organizada, confiable, y tengo ganas de brindarle a su hijo/a una experiencia segura y entretenida.
Hi, I'm Lily and would love the opportunity to help you out. I am a part time college student so I have a lot of free time. I find so much joy in helping people and making new connections. I have experience with kids, pets, and household chores. I like to keep busy so anything you need I'd be happy to do. My experience I am the third of 10 cousins and an older sister. I have helped teach summer schools and Bible schools assisting with children pre-k to 6th grade. I can play games, assist with homework and anything else. I can help with pets too. My household has had 3 dogs, 4 cats, a bunny and snake, as well as fish. I can dog walk, scoop litter, feed, play, etc. I can also clean and organize your home. Last summer I helped elderly folks clean and declutter and enjoyed that so much. I can sweep, vaccume, wash dishes, and do laundry. If you have errands you need to run but don't have the energy, I do! I am a detail oriented person who enjoys keeping things orderly and doing things right. I would love to help in any way I can!
Hi, My name is Ca’Mari, and I am a college student at Metropolitan community college with a strong passion for working with children and helping them feel safe, supported, and cared for. My long term goal is to become a pediatric oncology nurse. I currently work at the YMCA in a before and after school care position, where I get to work with children, keep them engaged, and create a safe and positive environment for them. I also had the opportunity to complete a one-day internship at University Health in an OBGYN setting, where I was able to see healthcare professionals work directly with patients and learn more about compassionate patient care. I would describe myself as patient, caring, responsible, and easy to communicate with. I’m someone who genuinely enjoys being around children, learning their personalities, keeping them entertained, and making sure they feel comfortable. I’m also dependable and take the responsibility of caring for someone else’s child very seriously. My goal is for every family I work with to feel confident that their child is in good hands.

"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."
