Hi-my name is Kyle, I am a grandpa and experienced special education teacher (30 years. I am offering child care, senior care, household services and pet care. I am a special education teacher with 30 years experience. I am looking for summer/temporary gigs. I am also available during breaks throughout the school year. I have worked with kids from all backgrounds, elementary-aged through young adult. I love dogs and cats, not interested in caring for reptiles and rodents. My experience working with the elderly is limited to my day-to-day experiences with my parents (it should count).
AAS Degree Early Childhood Development, 10+ yrs Preschool Teacher, raised 3 children of my own 19yr old girl, 15yr old girl, and 13yr old boy, I also am a Lifer Auntie of over 20plus niece and nephews, and great niece and nephews. Not a grandma yet but I love doing art activities and crafts, playing games, doing puzzles and knowing how to respond in a emergency because I have 20plus years of CPR and First Aid training.
Hello! My name is Emily and I am an 18-year-old looking to babysit and work with children near me! I'd describe my personality as a very passionate and bubbly person. I am very outgoing and welcoming! I like working with kids because I feel that I can always make them smile and help them have fun. They make me forget about life and just play and have fun. I started working with kids when I was 12 years old. I have babysat for 6 years and have worked with kids ever since. I am now in college for Early Childhood Education and tutoring at an elementary school! I have my babysitter license, CPR/first aid certification, and BLS certification. These past few months I have also been experiencing working as a CNA with my certified nursing assistant license. In my spare time, I like to go to the gym and bake. I love to spend time with friends and family more than anything! I cannot wait to hear from you and I hope that you can find exactly who you are looking for!
I have experience working with both children and teens in a mental health treatment center as well as at home respite care/PCA and childcare. I've worked with children and teens with ADHD, FAS and trauma. I have a BA in psychology and music which drives my love for exploring each of my client's unique individuality and their creative interests. I also received my certification in Usui Reiki 1 and 2 Healing Touch this winter. Please reach out if you would like to learn more about me!
Hi, care seekers! I'm a college degreed grandmother of 6 precious humans, and I'm a naturally caring, empathetic person. My BA is in a social services major, and I've worked both personally and professionally with adults, teens, and all ages of littles. I am patient, have that special "grandma energy," and can do everything from sing songs with your toddler to assisting your adolescent to make sense of that hard essay. As a good, health-aware cook, I can prep your ingredients for dinner (who doesn't need a sous chef?), or prepare the whole thing for the family, so you can come home to a hot meal, if that's what makes your life easier! Let me throw the laundry in the machine, load the dishwasher, iron your work shirts (does anyone do that anymore?), water the plants, get the mail, give your kiddo his snack, address your party invitations, play board games, and be there so your teenager has someone to ignore! Do you have an elder in the house? I will help your aged mom remember to take her meds, be sure she doesn't fall, play scrabble with grandpa, and prep their favorite sandwich with just the right amount of butter (that's important). I am respectful of all religions (or no religion), and will be sure to uphold your family's priorities so that your children have continuity within your home's environment. Just explain to me what your values are, and I'll consistently reflect them to your kids and elders (even if they are not my own values). I am friendly with all ethnicities. Do you have a special party coming up? If I'm available, we can work out some help with all the details to make your party run smoothly. I can prep a mean appetizer plate, set your table just so, assist with serving and clean up, and wrap those little gifts for your holiday event. Everybody needs some holiday help, right? Hit me up with what you envision, and we can lighten your load so you can have a little fun at your own event! Bonus: Sometimes I can even work on a holiday. I no longer host the Christmas, Thanksgiving, and Easter feasts (my adult kiddos do that), so if you are desperate for someone to peel the potatoes or make candy cane reindeers with your kindergartener while you wrap presents (or vice-versa), just ask me if I can make that happen. Let's collaborate to brighten up your stressful life!

"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
