Booked by 2 families in Edina, MN
Hello! My name is Bekah and I am a NICU nurse. My journey to nursing is rooted in my desire to care for others and integrate my background in sociology with hands-on work. I grew up caring for my siblings and cousins, always wanting to take part in things like diaper changes and bottle feeding, even when I was a bit too young. I am instinctively attuned to the needs of others which lends itself to my future career and to caregiving in general. I specialize in over night newborn care and being a “mother’s helper.” I can assist with feeding, lactation, sleep, and other newborn needs!

Hailey $18 per hour for 1 child
Hi! My name is Hailey and I recently graduated from the University of Minnesota with a bachelors of science degree in environmental science. I am currently taking a gap year before going to get my masters and wanted to work in an environment where I can gain more experience with younger audiences and make an impact on youth! I enjoy reading, hiking, painting, baking, running, and much more. I am available to work Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays anytime between 1-10 pm, Wednesdays 5 am- 4 pm, and Saturdays 12:30-10 pm!
Kierra $15 per hour for 1 child
Hello! My name is Kierra and i am 21 years old. I currently work in a Autism clinic that ranges from 3-7 year olds. I enjoy working with kids and building a bond with them! I offer caregiver services, food, cleaning and pets! ( I really love pets especially cats). I’ve been surrounded by kids my whole life due to my family lol. I’ve taken care of mostly all my little cousins since I was 13. Between diaper changing and feeding and bathing i have seen it all, from babies to senior citizens. ( my family owns a caregiving service!)
Jenise $18 per hour for 1 child
Hi! My name is Jenise, I am currently a junior at the University of Minnesota pursuing a political science major, and child development minor. I am currently offering child services, along with pet care services. I love babysitting, and have been working with kids of all ages since I was 15. Some of responsibilities have included driving, crafts, cooking, bed time, and homework help. I’ve been around pets forever, and I have a cat myself! I also love dogs too and enjoy going on walks and playing games with them! Please feel free to reach out here!
Marta $15 per hour for 1 child
Hi! My name is Marta and I’m a student at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities, based out of northeast Minneapolis. I have a car and am willing to travel pretty much anywhere in the metro area. I am comfortable with small children, although no infants at this time due to my lack of experience there, as well as animals and seniors if needed. I have chronic pain but can do light housekeeping tasks and small errands if needed! Overall, I am a very competent and motivated worker and others would be able to attest that. I’m also extremely upbeat, fun, and positive! I’m determined to not let my chronic pain get in the way of my ability to work, so I’m taking proactive measures to manage it! I’m very flexible right now, as I’m only in school part-time. I don’t mind driving kids to sports games and appointments, it’s just lifting heavy objects like a ton of groceries that’s hard for me! Please let me know if you’re interested, thanks. :)

"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."
