Hi families! 🤍 My name is Alejandra, and I’m originally from Puerto Rico! I’m currently a sophomore at Loyola University New Orleans, majoring in Public Health on the pre-med track. Working with children has always been something I genuinely love! My mom is a teacher, so I grew up surrounded by education and developed a passion for helping children learn, grow, and feel supported. I have several years of babysitting experience, worked as a summer camp counselor for three summers, and have also provided tutoring and homework assistance. I’m fluent in both English and Spanish, and I love incorporating creativity, learning, and fun into the time I spend with kids! Whether it’s arts and crafts, outdoor activities, helping with homework, preparing meals, or bedtime routines, I always do my best to make children feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I’d describe myself as patient, nurturing, responsible, and dependable. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your little ones in someone else’s care, and that’s something I never take lightly. I believe that good communication, consistency, and respecting each family’s routines are just as important as making sure the kids have a great time! I’m primarily available for date nights, evenings, and weekends, and I’m happy to discuss both hourly and flat rates depending on your family’s needs. My goal is simple: to make your life a little easier while giving your children the attention, kindness, and care they deserve. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family! 🤍
Hi! My name is Jovan. Here's what you should know about me: I understand what it means to juggle multiple jobs, school and paternal responsibilities. I have experience with children ages 6wks to 18 yrs old. My previous education experience includes being a Paraprofessional/Ast. Teacher, RTI Lab Instructor (response to intervention), working with students that have 504 accommodations, Lead Infant &Toddler Preschool Teacher, and working with my own daughter prior to kindergarten. My most recent position was teaching 4th Grade ELA. In this role, I increased 4th grade Mastery LEAP scores by 6 percentage points. Other experience includes Supervisory, training development and management roles. This means, I'm a creative leader. I work well with kids because in all the seriousness and hustle and bustle, I never lost my imagination. I set standards and I use a holistic approach that will encourage your kids to be good people! All kids can learn and I challenge them to do so! Other things about me are: My name is Jovan and I'm a chocoholic! I love movies! My daughter and I have 80's movie nights. I love reading and learning new things. My friends don't Google, they Jovan! Lol. I'm a first generation college student and I love helping other first gens! I'm extremely close to my family and it's something I value. If selected for your position, I hope to be considered extended family!
Hi! My name is Asia, I'm 19 years old, and I'm a caring, responsible, and dependable babysitter. While I don't have professional paid babysitting experience yet, I have experience caring for children through family and friends and genuinely enjoy spending time with kids. I'm currently an online student, which gives me some flexibility with my schedule. I also work in retail part time primarily on Tuesday and Wednesday nights and weekends. Because of my schedule, I'm mainly available during weekday daytime hours, with some additional availability depending on the week. I'm patient, attentive, and happy to help with activities, games, crafts, homework, simple meals, and keeping children safe and entertained. I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable leaving their children with someone they trust, and I'll always do my best to provide reliable and thoughtful care. I'm happy to answer any questions and provide more information about myself!
Hi! My name is Maddie! I am a senior at Tulane University, where I am studying psychology (specifically child psychology) as well as political science. I have lived in Boston my whole life, but my mom is from NOLA so I have spent a lot of time here growing up, and I loved it so much I had to come to school here! I have been officially working with kids since the summer of 2022 where I worked as a counselor at a sleep away camp for seven weeks. I have worked at that camp every summer since, and have acquired many different skills that allow me to work well with children. I have also been babysitting for neighbors and family friends since I was around 13. Since then, I have gotten my lifeguard certification which makes me CPR, AED, and first aid certified for infants, children, and adults. I am extremely patient, especially when it comes to kids with special needs or preferences. On top of this, I have been raised with pets (dogs and cats) my whole life and am very happy to take care of them too! I have my drivers license and a car with me at school, so I would be able to do pick ups and drop offs if needed.
Hi there! My name is Maddie and I am a student at Tulane. I have been babysitting children from ages 3+ over the past 6 years and am open to sitting for all ages. I am very responsible and make sure to follow parents’ orders very closely while ensuring the kids are having the best time possible. Some of my applicable strengths are cooking/baking, doing craft projects, and helping with homework/tutoring. Additionally, I have grown up with many pets my entire life and love animals. I am willing to sit any type of pet!

"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."
