Hey you :) My name is Amara and I have recently moved back to the US after working abroad for 2 years. Professionally, I am a Mechanical Engineer, but as I am considering a life/career change, I am temporarily looking for part time work. I am an aunt to 4 boys and 2 grand nephews, a cat mom and have had a lot of experience over the years caring for children and different pets (cats, dogs, hamsters, even a bearded dragon!). I have cared for children within my family as well as for non family members. (infants, toddlers, young children, 10+) I am a great home cook (one of my passions is food/cooking). I also have about 5 years of experience with math tutoring and general educational guidance/coaching (mostly for grades 6 through college, but willing to tutor lower grades as well.) I am very creative and love crafting as well (art, sewing, crochet, etc) I am a big DIYer I would love to connect and discuss how I can help you or your family!
Hi! My name is calla, I am 18 and currently working on my associates degree in biology through Lansing Community College. I love nature and I have a strong passion for child care and animal care. Most people would describe me as calm, respectful, and creative. I would much rather catch butterflies, play board games, and build snowmen with your kids than sit them in front of a T.V I have no problem enforcing rules such as bedtimes or chores, I only ask that you communicate these expectations with your children beforehand. Aside from my requested times I am willing to come in if there is an emergency, or an unexpected event. I have experience with children of all ages and I am comfortable with all pets (no allergies or fears!). I am willing to show vaccination records or any other records you need from me. I look forward to meeting you and your family! :)
Hi, my name is Caden, and I am currently a sophomore at Michigan State University. I offer childcare, care for children and adults with disabilities, senior care, house sitting, and pet sitting. I am an experienced caregiver with years of experience working with children as both a babysitter and a camp counselor. I also have over 300 hours of volunteer experience assisting adults with mental and physical disabilities. I am responsible, patient, energetic, and dependable, with a strong ability to keep children engaged through games, activities, and outdoor adventures while ensuring a safe and positive environment. In addition to childcare, I am comfortable helping with household tasks and pet care. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care and create a positive experience for every family I work with.
Hi! My name is Gracie and I am a current college student at MSU. I offer childcare and household services with hands-on experience. I have experience in caring for toddlers and children through babysitting and helping care for family members. I have been involved in caring for and supporting my younger brother with Down syndrome, which has taught me to be patient, attentive, and understanding to each child's individual needs. I enjoy activities, spending time outdoors, doing crafts, and helping with homework. I am also comfortable with simple meals, cleaning after children, and household tasks.

"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
