Hello there ! My name is ilma and I have been babysitting for about 2 years now, and also grew up in a family of 10 taking care of a lot of younger siblings so this has been my whole life, I am a full time college student for the most part just looking for a way to make extra money, big animal lover and a certified first aid
I'm a mother who raised my son with gentle parenting rooted in child development. As a single mom, I co-raised children with a trusted group of single mothers. I've cared for nieces, nephews, and cousins my whole life. I've also been a professional housecleaner. I'm trauma-informed, certified in health coaching, and believe in meeting children, pets, and senior adults where they are with patience, creativity, and respect.
Hi, I am Brandi. I am currently in my junior year at Metropolitan State University. I am offering child care, senior care and household services! I love spending time with family as it’s important to me! I have been babysitting for a couple years now. I enjoy doing activities such as coloring, playing games, and crafts with children. I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean and run errands as well. I am comfortable with senior care as well, I have been a caretaker for my grandparents for quite some time now. My grandpa recently passed, and I believe everyone deserves to be taken care of properly at no matter what age. I can drive to appointments and do other tasks as well. I adore animals, I grew up with three cats. Now I have 3 dogs, I am happy to take dogs on walks and engage with pets!
Hi, I'm Anna! I'm a student at the University of Minnesota studying Animal Science, and will be graduating in May. I'm offering occasional babysitting, petsitting, and housesitting services. While I do not have as many years of experience babysitting or being a nanny, I do have experience working with kids of all ages! I've babysat kids ranging from 2 years of age to teenagers, and have cooked, cleaned, changed diapers, and entertained for the kids. Most importantly, through the 4-H, FFA, and Big Brothers Big Sisters organizations, I've learned how to facilitate educational and entertaining learning through a variety of activities. I'm very comfortable working with any type of pet! My experience with animals and veterinary medicine is a great asset while watching over your pet. I'm also comfortable performing a variety of household chores, and would be happy to help you out! I have a clean record, access to personal transportation, and am CPR trained for both humans and pets. I am mostly looking for occasional jobs due to a constantly-changing school and work schedule. I look forward to potentially working with you!

"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."
