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 Cailey and I’m a caring, responsible, and dependable babysitter with 4+ years of childcare experience working in a daycare setting. I enjoy working with children and creating a safe, fun, and welcoming environment where they can learn, play, and feel comfortable. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, and I’m experienced with caring for children of different ages (and multiples) and helping with daily routines, meals, activities, and bedtime. I’m patient, and dependable, and I always prioritize the safety and well-being of the children in my care. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and provide reliable, caring support when you need it!
Hi I have been a career nanny going on 15 years. I have nannied anywhere from newborns all the way through school age children. I have a certification in Early childhood care, have been an instructor for cpr and first aid. I have 2 cats of my own and my current nanny family has 2 dogs and a kitten which I help out with. I also have some experience in household management, running errands, groceries, etc..
Hello, I'm Melody I'm 25, I'm taking care of kids since I'm 15. I love spending time with kids, teach them new skills. My favorite thing is to see them grow
I have always been a natural born care giver. Growing up with a brother nine years younger than myself in a single parent household, I took on a lot of responsibilities at a young age. I also babysat for a number of families in our neighborhood. Caring for my brother, making meals and helping out around the house. In my adult life I have worked as a full time nanny for a family with two young boys, an area that I was of course quite familiar to me. I have also been a step mother. I love kids, and although I don't have any of my own (yet!) I have enjoyed being a part of my niece's and nephew's lives and those of my friend's children. I am a very creative person. I love to learn and explore. I went to the University of Minnesota studying fine art. I later became a pastry chef. I have a passion for food and cooking. I love to teach and have fun. I think that learning should be fun! I am easy going. I love to get outside and explore nature. I am always there to lend a listening ear, a hand to hold or a shoulder to cry on. People have told me that I am a very kind, and insightful person. Honesty and values are very important to me and I take that very seriously. If you choose to hire me, I will hold your children accountable with kindness. I do not believe in yelling. In fact I very much dislike it. If I sound like a good fit for you and yours please get in contact. 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."
