I love kids of all ages & have a lot of patience. I’ve been a nanny, babysitter, & gymnastics teacher. I’m currently in nursing school specifically wanting to be a pediatric nurse. I have a flexible schedule, drive my own car, CPR certified, & overall know how to bring a smile to a kid.
Hi! My name is Mariam, and I work in a Pediatric Emergency Room, where providing safe, compassionate, and attentive care to children is my top priority. Through my experience in pediatrics, I’ve worked with children of all ages and learned how to stay calm, patient, and observant in all situations, giving parents peace of mind that their child is in good hands. I enjoy engaging children in fun, creative, and age-appropriate activities such as arts and crafts, games, reading, and playtime. I also have a passion for cooking and am happy to help with meal prep or snacks as needed. Creating a safe, nurturing, and positive environment is always my goal. In addition to childcare, I offer pet care services. I’ve cared for friends’ dogs, primarily small breeds, and am comfortable with feeding, walking, playing, and giving them lots of attention. I treat every child and pet with care, patience, and respect.
“she’s so amazing & wonderful with my kids! has a very bubbly personality and always willing to help out when needed!”
I have 5 years of experience working with infants, toddlers, and preschoolers in a daycare setting. I’m also currently a part time nanny for a 4 year old and a 2 year old 🙂
Hi mom/dad! A little about me: I've been a caretaker for my younger brother for his whole life pretty much haha along with extended family members' children. I have experience taking care of children aged 0-13 for over. As for pets, I owned a few German shepherds growing up and loved and cared for them deeply, also fostered a bichon frise for a few months in 2022 and it was some of the best few months of my life! Adore animals with all my heart, especially dogs! Did not grow up with cats, but I do not shy away from giving them cuddles when given the chance. Love bunnies too! I'm also a rising junior in college working on personal projects and classes along with some free time on my hands, so availability for babysitting is fairly flexible during the week. A few hobbies of mine: going on road trips either with friends, trying out new places to eat, and thrifting. I'm always available for a video call so we can get to know each other and see whether we are a good fit for each other!
Bringing eight years of experience working with children aged newborn to 11, I'm eager to provide a nurturing and stimulating environment for your little ones. My background includes a college degree, coursework in Early Child Development, and experience as a Certified Teacher. I'm also certified in CPR and First Aid. I'm comfortable caring for up to three children. I enjoy playing outdoor sports, board games, and educational games. I am patient, creative, and friendly. I'm also comfortable enforcing household rules. I will communicate with you daily, providing updates via text or phone and in person at pickup. Motivated by my positive experiences babysitting and a desire to support families, I'm happy to help with cooking and meal preparation. I look forward to the opportunity to bring my passion for childcare to your family and create a fun and safe space for your children to grow and learn.

"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."
Laura F., mom of two
