I'm a warm, dependable caregiver with 20+ years of experience from infants through adolescents, and a Master's in Maternal and Child Public Health. I'm also CPR certified for children and adults through the American Red Cross, recently renewed. I believe great childcare starts with getting to know each child and respecting the way each family does things. I like to learn your routines and expectations so I can provide care that feels comfortable and consistent. During our time together, I keep things safe, calm, and fun-whether that means helping with homework, playing a game, getting outside, preparing a meal, or settling into bedtime. I've also worked as a teacher, tutor, and mentor, and I love helping children feel confident, curious, and capable. I'm patient, attentive, and happy to meet kids where they are, and I want parents to feel confident that their children are in caring, capable, and trustworthy hands. I'd love the opportunity to get to know your family!
“Sara has been watching our kids regularly since they were babies, and they still light up whenever they hear she's "coming over to play." She's incredibly reliable and always arrives early. She stays in close touch throughout each visit, sending updates and pictures of whatever fun they're having together, and she's always respectful of our kids' routines, asking thoughtful questions about our expectations for the day. Bedtime is where she has impressed us, she's masterfully guided our kids through bath time, stories, and getting settled for the night, calmly and consistently. Whenever we're in a logistical crunch and I'm stressed about how to make it all work, Sara is the first person I think to call. She's been steady and dependable for our family for years, and she's genuinely a joy to have around and one of the most thoughtful, caring, and knowledgeable people I know. We'll keep booking with Sara, and I recommend her to any family looking for a sitter they can truly rely on.”
I have worked at an elementary school taking care of 25 kids. Being creative and finding activities for kids to do is very important. Painting, drawing, any games that they like. It’s also very important to lead Children to make sure rules are followed so they are safe at all times. Through getting to know them and being a good listener, over time they will feel more comfortable.
I am a senior in high school with a strong passion for working with children. I have taken a Child Development class for two years, where I have learned a lot about child growth and care. Through this class and other experiences, I have worked with children as young as three years old up to almost five-year-olds. I truly enjoy engaging with kids. I love playing with them, talking to them, and creating fun. In addition, I am actively involved at my church every Sunday, where I work with children aged 5 to 10. I help supervise activities, play with them, and encourage positive interaction. I also have experience caring for animals. I have three dogs that I have cared for over the past four years, and I also offer dog-walking services. This experience has taught me responsibility, patience, and attentiveness qualities I bring to all childcare responsibilities. Overall, my experience with children and animals has given me the skills to provide a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for any child.
Hi! My name is Reyna. I am a paralegal by profession and I am fluent in both English and Spanish. My experience with childcare began through helping care for my younger siblings and children of friends and family over several years, starting with babies as small as three months. This experience taught me the importance of patience, compassion, and creating a safe and nurturing environment for children. In addition, I am very active and enjoy hands on activities and being outdoors. I do work full time during the day so my availability is mostly evenings and weekends.
“Amazing ! ”
Hi! I have over 2 years of experience working with children as an au pair, where I cared for children ages 3–11 while working with two different families. I also have 2.5 years of experience as a nanny and Spanish tutor. I currently work as an Environmental, Health & Safety Specialist, which has strengthened my knowledge of safety, emergency preparedness, and creating safe environments. I truly enjoy working with children and would be happy to provide your little ones with a safe, fun, and caring environment!

"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."
