Alexandria $20 per hour for 1 child

I come from a diverse family and have been taught to accommodate the needs of almost all children. I have helped run a summer kids camp, (the age groups ranging from 3-15 year olds) where we accommodated kids of different needs. I have a 1 year old Australian shepherd and A 6 year old son. I am usually doing school work, at the baseball fields, or hanging with the family. Now that you know a little about me I can’t wait to meet your little ones :)

Sarah $18 per hour for 1 child

Caring for others has always come naturally to me. Whether it’s looking after kids, helping seniors feel supported, or making sure pets feel loved, I believe everyone deserves kindness and patience. I’m dependable, attentive, and great at creating a warm, safe environment. I also enjoy keeping things organized, preparing meals, cleaning, and making daily life a little easier. Most of all, I love building real connections and making people feel valued, comfortable, and cared for.

$22 per hour for 1 child

Hey y'all! My name's August and I'm from Austin, Texas. I'm currently a student at the Clive Davis Institute of Recorded Music at NYU and will be in New York for the entirety of the summer. I've taken care of children my whole life from siblings to neighbors, as well as children with disabilities. I'm quite extroverted and active so working with kids gives me lots of energy! I'm also great with animals, having both cats and dogs. I'm very attentive and truly care about going the extra mile to ensure both you and your loved ones feel safe and supported. I'm always willing to provide extra help around the house if needed!

August is friendly and trustworthy care provider. He sat often for us for our 7/8 year old and was happy taking our child to the park. He isn't a sitter that is on their phone all the time and is patient and supportive. He followed our directions and never cancelled. He has since moved away but we enthusiastically recommend him for child and pet care.

Hi! I’m Cat, a super bubbly, hands-on caregiver with 7+ years of childcare experience. I’ve worked with over 30 families in the Bastrop/Austin area, and I’ve spent the last 2 years as a full-time nanny. I’m CPR certified, dependable, and always bring positive energy into every home. I love being interactive with kids whether that’s playing games, helping with crafts, getting outside, or supporting routines. I’m confident with all ages, from infants to school-aged kiddos. I’m also an animal lover, so pets are always a bonus! I look forward to meeting your family and helping however 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."
