I have raised 3 wonderful, successful children. I was keeping my grandson the past year and am doing Senior Dementia care most mornings so needing hours to complete the week and enjoy taking care of others. I have done my time in the corporate world too. Please consider my gifts to help your family! Everyone deserves kindness and grace. I am a teacher by trade so have the education qualification as well as experience. Thank you, Carol

$18 per hour for 1 child
Hi! I’m Cassidy, a college student at NC State going into my junior year studying Nutritional Science and Business Administration on the pre-med track. I have been babysitting on and off for about four years, with most of my experience focused on kids ages 3 to 7. I also volunteer every Sunday at my church where I have cared for children ages 2 to 9 for the past three years. In addition to childcare, I have shadowed at multiple doctors’ offices and currently spend my semesters shadowing pediatric and family medicine doctors at UNC’s North Chatham Pediatrics & Internal Medicine. Through these experiences, I have gained hands-on exposure to patient care, including knowledge and experience in wound care and CPR. I love working with kids and feel confident handling a wide range of situations with patience and empathy. I also have experience caring for smaller dogs. I enjoy going on walks with them, playing, and making sure they are well fed. Additionally, I love talking to and helping seniors and have experience in senior patient care through my shadowing, as many of the patients I have seen have been older adults. When I’m not studying or working, I enjoy baking, working out, and going for runs. I’m friendly, energetic, and happy to help with playtime, homework, arts and crafts, or whatever your family needs. I’d love to meet your kids, pets, or seniors and help out whenever you need!

"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."
