Natalie $18 per hour for 1 child
Hi! I’m a university student studying biochemistry with minors in child psychology and pharmacology. I grew up in a big family and helped care for several of my younger siblings, and more recently I cared for my newborn niece while my sister started nursing school. I’m BLS certified, patient, and dependable, and I love keeping kids engaged with crafts, reading, outdoor play, and fun activities. I’m comfortable with children of all ages and happy to help create a safe, positive environment for them to learn and have fun.
Logan $20 per hour for 1 child
Hi! My name is Logan. I have had many years of experience babysitting children from newborn to ages 10+. I not only enjoy being around kids, but I also put a lot of effort into giving them appropriate support. My main goal is to provide a safe environment for your child (both physically and emotionally). I work full time during the day but have flexible availability over the weekend, in the morning (before 8:45am) and in the evenings (after 5:00pm). I look forward to hearing from you!

I am looking to find a family that wants a hands on, caring and very interactive nanny/babysitter.. I love to read to and do crafts with my littles and I believe in fresh air and running around outdoors! I have cared for infants to pre teens and I have great recommendations from my previous full time nanny jobs! I also lived with my Dad for the last 2-1/2 years of his life at an Independent living center. I loved making friends with so many vibrant and interesting people there.

"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."
