I am currently a senior at the University of St. Thomas, majoring in Business Administration and minoring in Leadership and Management. I am 21 years old and have been working with children since I was 14. I started as a gymnastics coach, where I have worked with children of many different ages and personalities. This experience has taught me how to be patient, responsible, encouraging, and adaptable while still making sure kids are having fun. I currently nanny and babysit for three families, mainly for occasional date nights, and I am looking for opportunities to help families more regularly when needed. I have also worked with younger children at the USA Cup and have experience caring for my younger brother as he grew up. I genuinely enjoy working with kids and helping make parents' lives a little easier. When I am with kids, I love finding ways to keep them active and entertained rather than just sitting around. I enjoy arts and crafts, creating fun games and activities, playing outside, taking kids to their favorite places, driving them to activities, and supporting them at their sporting events. I have a sports background myself, so I especially enjoy working with active kids and families. I am a very patient, creative, bubbly, and caring person. I also understand that being a caregiver means taking responsibility for more than just watching the kids. I always clean up after activities and meals and try to leave the home even better than I found it. I am happy to help with household tasks when needed and want parents to feel like they can rely on me. I am also very comfortable caring for pets. I have a cat of my own that I love, two dogs at my mom's house, and I have cared for pets while nannying for families in the past. I am both a cat and dog lover and am happy to help with feeding, playing, walks, and general pet care. Overall, I would describe myself as dependable, energetic, organized, and someone who truly enjoys helping others. My years of experience working with children, along with my leadership background and outgoing personality, allow me to create a safe, positive, and fun environment for the families I work with.
Hi! I'm a current Macalester College Spanish and Sociology major who is passionate about working with kids. I have 4 years of experience as a summer camp counselor and one year of experience in after-school programming. My background has given me extensive practice coming up with engaging, creative, and educational activities for kids of all ages. I have received extensive safety and childcare training, including CPR and First Aid. I love cooking and baking and know how to teach age-appropriate food-safety skills to cook with kids. I grew up with food allergies, so I know how to take the best precautions to help kids with dietary restrictions. Another passion of mine is helping kids explore the world outside-- this fall, I'm taking a course specifically on Outdoor Environmental Education, so I have lots of new activities to try out!
I have been babysitting for over 7 years working with children as young as 6 months up to age 10. I aspire to be a teacher and have received teacher training, so I know how to make learning fun and keep kids engaged. I love to sew and do arts and crafts, read, and play outdoors. I have a car for easy commutes and am very flexible to meet your childcare needs.
-I have 10+ years of experience in education/caregiving -I have 2 teaching licenses (Early Childhood & Elementary) -I am bilingual (English & Spanish) -CPR trained -Clean driving record -No criminal background -I am organized, caring, patient, and flexible -I love pets
Hello! My name is Bekah and I am a NICU nurse. My journey to nursing is rooted in my desire to care for others and integrate my background in sociology with hands-on work. I grew up caring for my siblings and cousins, always wanting to take part in things like diaper changes and bottle feeding, even when I was a bit too young. I am instinctively attuned to the needs of others which lends itself to my future career and to caregiving in general. I specialize in over night newborn care and being a “mother’s helper.” I can assist with feeding, lactation, sleep, and other newborn needs!
“Reliable and good with kiddos. Would recommend”

"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."
