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!
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.
Hi! My name is Emily and I’m currently a part time healthcare worker with several years of childcare experience. I’m hoping to connect with a new family to provide part time and/or occasional care. My previous experience includes: - 5 years as a float teacher at a childcare center, caring for children ages 2 months to 6 years old - 1 year as a part-time nanny caring for an infant - Summer nanny caring for two school age children I currently work in healthcare in the pediatric setting, and I love working with kids of all ages. I’m excited to learn more about how I can support your family!
I have worked in Early Childhood since High School. Now, I work with seniors on activities in an assisted living setting. I love taking care of people and helping them out. I love kids and I am a very safe, caring, and fun person.

"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."
Laura F., mom of two
