As a caregiver, my passion lies in nurturing the growth and development of young minds. With nine years of experience in child care, I am committed to providing a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment where children can thrive. I am a patient and calm individual with a creative and imaginative approach to learning. My friendly and approachable nature allows me to build strong relationships with children and their families. When it comes to communicating with parents, I follow their preferred method to ensure open and effective communication about their child’s day and any issues that may arise. I am also very comfortable enforcing household rules to provide a structured and consistent environment for children. My educational background includes coursework in early childhood development, which enhances my ability to provide age appropriate activities and experiences for children. I am comfortable caring for children of various age groups from infants to preschoolers. I am a mother of 4 children.
“Truly reliable and very communicative! She helped us out so much. We really appreciated having someone so dependable and caring. Would definitely book again!⭐️”
Hello! My name is Brigid and I have been working with Kids for over 5 years! I have my Bachelor’s of Science in Education and two teaching licenses in Prek- 12th grade education! I am a full time nanny currently but am always looking for some part time/occasional nannying or babysitting. I have over 5 years of experience with children as young as newborns to early high-school! Kids are my life and bring me so much joy. I have two younger siblings, (shown in my profile picture) 8 and 10, one with autism, that I have taken care of since they were born. Due to a difficult parental situation, I had lots of experience early on for caring for them as infants and toddlers, and let that carry me into working professionally with children since I was 15. I have great child care references I can provide and many past nanny/sitter familes I am still on great terms with and even visit for fun when I am back in my hometown! I am interested in all types of jobs, so feel free to reach out about anything! I make it a priority to make any space a child spends with me a safe one, and I encourage families of any and all backgrounds to not be shy to reach out, as I have grown up with a very mixed one myself:) Thank you for your consideration of me.
In short: I sincerely love working with kids professionally and am excited to work with families while in grad school. I have four years experience working in youth mental health, in school programs, clinical settings, and after-school services. I can handle just about any situation that may arise- I am Adult and Pediatric CPR certified, received EMT-B training in 2015, and have worked professionally with youth aged 8-20. I work with kids because I truly love it- the joy, curiosity, and growth of spending time with children and adolescents is like no other. I am pursuing a Master's degree in Marriage & Family Therapy at Saint Mary's- towards a goal of licensed, trauma-informed therapy with youth and their families. I have also been babysitting and nannying on-and-off for 15 years, for families with children aged 0-12. I have three younger siblings and certainly got plenty of formative experience there, strengthened by working for neighbors and family friends over the years. I also have experience with dogs, cats, reptiles, and fish of all shapes, sizes, and energy needs!
Hello! My name is Randi. I’m originally from California, and lived in San Francisco for about 9 years before moving to Minneapolis this past March! I work full time in Human Resources for a tech company, but I’m remote 2 days a week and have a fairly flexible schedule for evening jobs. I have 10 years of experience on Urbansitter and babysitting in big cities! I have a safe, reliable car and I am very comfortable with household tasks and errands as well! I love working with children, and part time childcare work is the perfect fit for someone like me who needs a more flexible work schedule! Feel free to message me with any questions, and I look forward to meeting you!
Hi- My name is Mike and I am offering pet care and household services. I am highly reliable and love to care for animals. I've had a variety of pets for over 40 years and most of my experience is with cats. If you need someone to run errands or some light work around the house, I can help.
“Mike is a true animal lover and did great with our fur babies when on vacation”

"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."
