Looking for a nurturing and engaging childcare provider for your little one? I'm a 30-year-old with a passion for child development (and a Master's in Clinical Social Work in the works!). With years of experience, I bring warmth, humor, and love for creativity and curiosity. My background in neurodiversity allows me to connect with all kinds of kids, from those with special needs to those thriving typically. Understanding attachment theory helps me create a safe and supportive environment where your child can blossom. Let's chat and see if we're a good fit!
Hello! My name is Tana and I am 24 years old. I have been babysitting since I was 14, and have experience with all ages of kids. I also have experience working as an Au Pair in Italy, and as an assistant language teacher in Bosnia. In my free time I like to spend time outside, crochet, read, and play guitar. I have a very positive attitude and love to have fun. When I am spending time with kids, I love to do arts and crafts, play outside, cook/bake together, dance, and play with toys.
Hey, I'm Damaris! I'm 19 and in college! I really enjoy being around kids and l've been babysitting my cousins, family friends, and neighbors over the past few years. I'm patient, caring, and easy to get along with. I can help with homework, play games, or just keep the kids busy and safe while you're out. I'm easy to work with, reliable, and always make sure to follow directions.
“Damaris is my neighbor and has babysat my daughter here and there during the summer! She is extremely responsible, caring, and attentive. My daughter, who is 5 years old, really loves her! She’s a great babysitter, and whoever gets the chance to work with her is lucky to experience a stress-free situation when it comes to childcare!”
I've been a childcare provider for over seven years, motivated by my passion for fostering children's growth and development and my positive experiences in previous babysitting roles. I believe in creating a nurturing and stimulating environment for children to learn, play, and grow. As a patient, calm, creative, and friendly caregiver, I enjoy playing various games with children, including outdoor sports, board games, and educational games that enhance their learning. I'm comfortable enforcing household rules and have experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to preteens. I'm comfortable caring for up to four children simultaneously and am available to provide references upon request. I hold CPR and First Aid certifications, and I follow the parents' preferred communication method to keep them informed about their child's day or any issues that may arise. I look forward to the opportunity of meeting you and learning more about your childcare needs.

"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."
