Hi everyone! Mya name is Mia and I am 22 years old. I am in nursing school and I am a certified nursing assistant. I am offering child care and dog sitting/ walking. I have always babysat growing up. The ages always varied from 6 months old to 12 years of age. I love children and babies and I am CPR certified as well. I also dog sit and I love to walk so me and your fur babies can get lots of exercise (if that’s something the dog would like). I have no issues with bigger dogs or any breeds. I have 3 dogs at home that I help take care of, so I am not a stranger to multiple pets either. I am very responsible and will make sure things go as smoothly as possible:)
Hello, I’m Kayla! I’m 23 years old and I’ve always loved kids. I took the working with children elective while in high school and completed the 9 hour communication skills core of knowledge training as well as the 90 hour preschool course but I unfortunately no longer have the printed certificate (I am looking to see if my high school might still have a copy). I also majored in Early Childhood Education last year at HCC. I am a very creative and imaginative person and I find that it helps me to connect with children more. I love doing arts and crafts, playing games and making up stories. I’m also a good listener and whenever a child or person in general has something to say, I make sure to give my undivided attention because I believe every voice and opinion matters, no matter how small. I’ve worked at a daycare and I’ve worked in an elementary school as a before and after care aide. I also have experience babysitting for family and friends. That experience is limited though (one family friend and my aunt) but I am hoping to gain more experiences and reviews through this site. I don’t have much experience with seniors and my experience with pets revolve mainly around dogs, though I do know my way around with cats. For household services I do light cleaning. I like a clean area and I believe cleanliness aides in cultivating a peaceful state of mind. I am also CPR and first aid certified.
I am a nurse practitioner (current practice owner) who never had children of my own and have always wanted them. I have medical experience beginning at Children’s Hospital in DC on their behavioural psychiatry unit, my nursing internship was a Cambridge hospital on the pediatric behaviour program. After becoming an NP in 2005, I spent several summers as a camp nurse at the Barrie School in Silver Spring, MD. I have also worked with their 4 year olds for aftercare and substituted in the baby room when needed. My other experience includes being the lead NP at JHH on their Meyer 6 unit for 4 years and some time in the Anesthesia department. Working with children has been my most fulfilling work. My extensive care of children in various situations should make any parent feel confident in choosing me as a caregiver.
“Very professional, punctual, thoughtful, great communication. Will hire again!”
Hello, my name is Starla and I am an energetic and fun sitter ! Although I am current law student (3L) , I have 10+ years of experience working with children of all ages. I am also pet friendly.
Hi! My name is Marianna and I am 23 years old. I'm a reliable and easygoing sitter with 8 years of experience caring for children ages 1-13. I currently work full-time during the week (9-5), so I'm available for weeknight and weekend babysitting. I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids and love creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment--whether that's playing outside, doing crafts, board games, movie nights, helping with homework, or just keeping them entertained and happy while you're away. I'm comfortable caring for multiple children at once and am happy to help with light housekeeping, meal prep, and pet care as needed. I also have reliable transportation and am comfortable driving for school pickups, activities, errands, etc. Families describe me as patient, dependable, calm, and approachable, and I always try to make both parents and kids feel comfortable. I'm happy to provide references upon request and would love the opportunity to support your family however I can!

"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."
