Hello my name is Samantha (26) and I am a UTSA graduate of 2021. I have a Labrador retriever who loves to play. On my free time I like to relax and spend time with family and friends. On the side I am a freelance filmmaker. I work on film sets for feature and short films as grip, gaffer, or camera crew. My services include babysitting and dog care. While babysitting I like to play with the kids, have dance parties, and watch their favorite tv show or movie. One of my favorite things about babysitting is getting to know the child and making a connection with them. I really enjoy spending time with the kids I babysit and making them feel safe while parents are out. If you have any further questions please feel free to message me.
“Samantha was amazing, my son loved her ! We will be working with her again ”
Hello my name is Selena and I am 21 years old. I am originally from California but I moved to San Antonio for college. I am currently a sophomore attending A&M University-San Antonio. I am offering child care, senior care, pet care, and household services. I am the oldest of three siblings and I when I was living at home I helped my mom with babysitting them when needed so I would say I have tons of experience with all ages. I also have experience babysitting elderly as my neighbor from back at home would pay me to watch her mother that was in her 80's. As for animals I myself own a cat along with a snake. My neighbors would hire me to feed their dogs and watch their houses while they were out of town so I also have experience with that as well.
“Thanks for your help on such short notice, I appreciate Selena she was on time and asked great questions to assure she could provide the best care for my daughter! Would hire again 🩷”
From a young age, I knew I had a heart for care. My journey into caregiving began in early childhood education, where I worked with infants and toddlers, nurturing their development during their most formative years. I quickly discovered a deep sense of purpose in creating safe, warm environments that supported not only physical care but emotional connection as well. As my experience grew, I was drawn to working with children on the autism spectrum. I took specialized training to better understand their unique needs and communication styles, and I found joy in celebrating every small milestone—whether it was a new word, a smile, or a moment of connection. My approach has always been patient, compassionate, and grounded in building trust. Alongside my work in childcare, I also found myself gravitating toward seniors care. Supporting elderly individuals—especially those facing isolation, dementia, or limited mobility—gave me the chance to offer dignity, companionship, and meaningful daily interactions. I’ve learned that caregiving at both ends of life’s spectrum requires many of the same values: empathy, patience, respect, and a willingness to truly listen. With years of hands-on experience across generations, I’ve come to appreciate the deep rewards of caregiving. Each person—whether a baby, a child with autism, or a senior—deserves to feel seen, safe, and valued. And for me, being able to provide that care is more than a job; it’s a calling.
I love kids! I have been babysitting since I was 13 years old. I started with some neighborhood families and moved to being a nanny for another family. I love to teach children and keep them engaged without screens such as going outside to play or reading a book. As a nanny in the past, I would clean, cook, take the kids to dance class, and run errands for the family. I also have a background with childcare during ministry. I taught Sunday school class every Sunday for 3 years. I am a charismatic and outgoing person who loves to entertain and make anyone laugh. I treat everyone with respect no matter the age. Children should be allowed to think and dream in my opinion, and I encourage that!

"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."
