Hi! My name is Sarah. I am a physician assistant student looking for occasional babysitting jobs. I am 27 years old, have a bachelor’s degree in psychology, and have 10 years of childcare work experience, including: babysitting, nannying full-time, tutoring, and coaching gymnastics. I have experience working with children ranging from 3 months-13 years old. I love to stay active and spend time outside, and also enjoy reading, arts & crafts, and being creative. I strive to be a fun, engaging sitter and love meeting new families! I also provide overnight childcare, school drop-off/pick up, house managing services (ex. help with laundry, groceries, meals, extracurricular activities). I drive a reliable SUV and have a safe driving record. I hope to hear from you soon!
Hi - My name is Grace. I'm 23 years old and graduated from Hillsdale College this past May. I work a full time job during the week, so I am looking for part-time and occasional jobs after 5:00 p.m. during the week and during the day on the weekends. I have experience working with kids coaching beginner and competitive gymnastics for ages 4-12. I also have experience volunteering at my college's preschool. I can plan educational or fun activities for the child if desired. I am not allergic to any pets.
Hi, my name is Kate! I have lived in Capitol Hill for the past four years, but I'm originally from St. Louis, Missouri. I am offering child care, household services and can help with any pets. I love being a babysitter and have a lot of experience watching toddlers and kids from a young age, including my cousin, who was born when I was 13! I babysat him multiple times a week until I left for college (and after), as well as other kids in my neighborhood. My older sister and mom are both elementary school teachers (kindergarten and 1st grade!), so I also have a lot of fun experience helping out in their classrooms! I grew up with a dog and currently have 2 cats, so happy to also help out with pets where needed.
Hello! - My name is Jess and I'm a recently graduated Summa Cum Laude from Rochester Institute of Technology with a double major in American Sign Language Interpretation and Women, Gender, & Sexuality Studies. I am offering nannying/babysitting services with included house care services as well as basic pet care. I love working with kids and have been babysitting/nannying for around seven years (since I was 15 years old). I have experience with infants, toddlers, and school age children. I have worked with a family with two children from age 18 months and 3 years old to now 7 and 9 years olds. My responsibilities included pick up/drop off from school/activities, tutoring/schooling, potty training, crafts, planning/organizing activities, managing schedules/play dates, meal prep, packing lunchboxes, light housekeeping, and swim instruction. I also worked at the YMCA as an 6 months - elementary age swim instructor as well as a lifeguard. I love arts & crafts will be sure to create lots with the children. Additionally, I love to bake and would be happy to make lots of fun (& healthy) goodies in the kitchen. I also will curate many indoor and outdoor activities to ensure lots of play time. (I love a good rainy day dance party!) Along with childcare, I also provide light housekeeping including picking up after the children, washing dishes, children’s laundry, and any other applicable household tasks. Due to my degree, I have fluency in ASL as well, so I am confident working with Deaf children and implementing ASL into care for hearing children. I am happy to work with families with pets as well as provide pet care for cats and small dogs. My services include feeding, walking, picking up after, enrichment, and play time. I am excited to meet you!

"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."
