I have several years of childcare experience, including nannying for a one-year-old for the past year and caring for a two- and three-year-old for two years. I’ve also worked at summer camps, so I’m comfortable planning activities and keeping kids engaged. I’m outgoing, reliable, and easy to communicate with. I’m currently in graduate school for counseling, which has strengthened my ability to connect with children and support their emotional development. I also have experience caring for cats and dogs and am very comfortable with pets. My schedule is flexible.

Hi my name is Perla and I am a single mom that is going back to school to obtain a speech and language pathology certification. My bachelors degree is in child and adolescent development. I am pet friendly and have pets of my own and am excited to work with families while my kiddos are at school. My kiddos are 6 and 8 so I have plenty of first hand experience as well. I am also a native Spanish speaker. Feel free to reach out with any questions.
I am a career nanny and have been working with children in their homes for over 18 years. I love caring for infants but also love taking toddlers out to explore the world. Watching children learn and grow never gets old!
Hello :) My name is Morgan, and I’m here to offer a variety of services for you and your family. I have more than ten years of experience caring for seniors, infants, toddlers, and children of all ages. I adore animals and have been working with cats, dogs, chickens, and horses my entire life. My empathy, perception, and eye for detail allows me to connect and build relationships based on trust and genuine understanding. I love to cook, and pride myself on my timeliness and organizational skills. I’ve helped care for my own grandmother with dementia, as well as many other seniors with a variety of needs and medical requirements. I have experience assisting children with special needs, provided tutoring, and engaged in medication management. I have also worked with children in a clinical setting as a behavioral health paraprofessional. I have my own vehicle, and am happy to run errands if needs be. I’d love the opportunity to discuss your family’s individual needs and help in any way I can!

"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
