Booked by 2 families in Macon, TN

Hey ! I’m Sunshine and I am 19 years old. I currently work at an aftercare/preschool center, but I have been babysitting for years now. I love working with kids and typically work better with older age groups! I am also open to pet sitting, dogs or cats, and house sitting! I have done pet sitting and house sitting off and on for the past couple years as well :) I also did first aid and CPR training classes a couple years ago! I wanted to add to be more clear with my schedule; I am open any weekend, but I am only available past 6pm on weekdays.

I booked with Sunshine for drop-in pet sitter services while I was out of town. She was very friendly, courteous and easy to work with! She was absolutely wonderful with my pets - a dog and cats - and took great care of them. I would highly recommend Sunshine and will book with her again!

Desarae $15 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Desarae and I am a mom to 4 year old twins. I am CPR/AED certified and have over 10+ experience working with children ages 5-17 and 2+ years working with seniors. I previously was a caregiver for two years and also a clerk/coordinator/summer instructor at an after school program. I am comfortable with homework help, light housework cleaning, cooking, laundry and arts & crafts! Being a mom myself, I am open to negotiating as I believe it takes a village. I’m currently in school for clinicals so feel free to reach out to me for any availability you may need. I’m more open to availability if I am able to bring my twins along too! If you have any questions, I’m more than happy to answer them!

Hi - My name is Patricia and I'm currently a senior in Memphis. I am offering childcare for my grandchildren and others in my neighborhood. I love being a babysitter and have been watching my newest grandchild this year. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts, tutoring, and even dance lessons.

Perfect in every way!

"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."
