Hi! I'm a current undergrad studying biology and working in a research lab. I have previous experience with toddlers-teenagers as a former Kumon employee. Also, I have personal experience caring for my 4 nieces and three nephews! I’m very patient, punctual, communicative, and I can easily adapt to different household schedules, rules, and values! Not to toot my own horn, but I'm also fun to be around! I love being outdoors, being creative, playing games, cooking, and finding new hobbies. Regarding pets, I've fostered and/or adopted many cats throughout my life and I have some experience with dogs. These are the main points I'd like to advertise about myself: 1. I have experience with children of all ages. 2. I'm dependable, respectful, and organized. 3. I have tutoring experience. 4. I'm willing to learn new things and adapt to other's lifestyles.
“Orion is a great babysitter. She watched our 1 and 3 year old and they had tons of fun together. Our 1 year old had a bit of tough time with a possible ear infection and she was able to handle everything calmly and took good care of him until we got home. We would highly recommend Orion! ”
I have over five years of experience working with children in both professional and personal settings. For five consecutive summers, I worked at my church’s summer camp, where I was responsible for supervising and engaging groups of children while their parents were at work. My role included organizing fun and educational activities, leading games, helping with crafts, preparing snacks, and ensuring each child felt safe, included, and cared for throughout the day. In addition to my camp experience, I’ve regularly babysat for families in my community, caring for children of various ages. I’m confident managing daily routines, including mealtimes, nap schedules, school pickups, and bedtime. I also assist with homework, encourage creative play, and maintain a calm, nurturing environment where kids can thrive. I’ve also been trusted by neighbors to care for their children and pets while they’re out of town. This has included feeding and walking pets, keeping routines consistent, light household tasks, and making sure the home stays tidy and secure. I’m known for being dependable, patient, and attentive. I genuinely enjoy building strong, positive relationships with kids and helping families feel supported. Caregiving isn’t just a job for me—it’s something I take pride in, and I always strive to go above and beyond to make sure children are happy, safe, and engaged.
Hi my name Is Deborah, I am a 25 year old mom of a 5 year old boy and 10m old girl (both have to come with me) both are well behaved. I have my own transportation and I am looking for a happy family to offer child care too while I go back to college to finish my nursing certification. I love being a care provider. I have 5+ years of experience with kids ranging from 0-17. I also have experience in special needs children’s care. I have worked with several families through the Urban Sitter app and I am excited to assist someone new! I love all animals, I grew up on a ranch with many animals and I am happy to accommodate any animals special treatment, diet, needs etc. I have little experience caring for senior citizens other than helping my own grandparents but I am happy to help in anyway! I also am willing to be a household assistant by helping run errands, cook , clean etc.
I have one year of experience working as a caregiver for a family in California, where I supported an elderly mother with daily care while also helping maintain a calm, organized, and loving home. In this role, I was responsible not only for senior care, but also for caring for two dogs and two cats, ensuring they were well-fed, exercised, and comfortable. I also 5 years of pet sitting experience via Rover with 5-star reviews and have many references. This experience taught me responsibility, patience, and the importance of creating a safe and nurturing environment for every member of the household. I also have experience caring for children through helping look after my younger cousins. I naturally connect well with kids, and they tend to feel comfortable and at ease around me. I am gentle, attentive, and enjoy engaging with children in a positive and supportive way. I am eager to learn, flexible with routines, and happy to follow a family’s specific needs and values. I take pride in being dependable, kind, and compassionate, and I truly enjoy helping families feel supported and cared for.
I have a masters in criminal justice and have over 10 years experience working with children of all ages. Prior to working in the banking industry, I worked with the City of Houston in the Parks and Recreation department for 12 years and was trained to work with special needs adults and children.

"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."
