Hi! My name is Nicole, and I’m a responsible, caring, and sweet person who truly enjoys spending time with children and pets. I have 2–3 years of experience caring for kids between 1 and 7 years old. I love creating safe, happy, and loving environments where kids can learn and have fun. Some of my favorite activities to do with children are arts and crafts, reading stories, dancing, and outdoor games. I’m patient, respectful, and always make sure the children feel comfortable and cared for. In addition to babysitting, I also enjoy pet sitting — I love dogs and feel very comfortable taking care of them, whether it’s walking, feeding, or playing. Families describe me as reliable, kind, and gentle, and I always do my best to make their day easier while keeping their children and pets safe and happy.

“Cheryl was a FANTASTIC caregiver for my (then) 4 year-old child. We’ve since moved from the area, but my child STILL asks for Cheryl all of the time! Cheryl is the mother of adult children so she’s well-versed on kids of all ages, and needs. She knows how to create a safe, yet fun environment for kids. She’s a true childcare gem; compassionate, loving, empathetic, and so knowledgeable about all different aspects of childcare! Your kid(s) will absolutely adore Cheryl, and so will you!!! Bonus points because not only is Cheryl great with kids, she’s ALSO absolutely wonderful with pets!! - she happily took care of our dog while caring for our kiddo!”
Hi! I'm Keziah, a full-time college student studying Business Administration with several years of childcare, tutoring, and camp experience. I've worked with children ranging from infants to pre-teens in both group and one-on-one settings, including supervising children during camp activities and public outings around town. I'm known for being calm, responsible, organized, and dependable. I enjoy creating a fun and comfortable environment for kids while still maintaining structure, safety, and attentiveness. I naturally communicate with children in a respectful and encouraging way that helps them feel heard, confident, and comfortable. In addition to babysitting, I also have experience helping with homework and tutoring in subjects like math and English. I'm certified in Adult and Pediatric First Aid/ CPR/AED, and my availability can be flexible around my college schedule, especially evenings and weekends.
“Keziah has been wonderful with our children including our twin toddlers. She has handled the chaos of our young family with grace and handles the unpredictability of twin toddlers and a preschooler with poise.”

"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."
