Hi! I'm Claire & I've been a nanny for the last 20 years, working with 15 families & 24 kids between the ages of 8 weeks & 16 years. My favorite age to work with are toddlers-they're so curious & constantly learning! I strongly believe in teaching kids to express their feelings in healthy ways, while treating the others around them with kindness & respect. I'm enthusiastic about outdoor adventures, creative indoor activities, & learning through play! Pets are important members of families & I'm very animal friendly! However, I am allergic to cats & have a hard time working in homes especially with multiple cats &/or longhairs for extended periods.
“Claire is a warm and caring nanny! She is dependable and reliable. She cared for my children starting when they were newborns and is still a trusted adult for my 18 year old. She's wonderful with kids of any age and very patient with kids who have high needs (like my neurodivergent youngest child).”
I am a responsible and caring college student with several years of hands-on experience caring for children and pets. I am a pet owner myself, of my little nanobanano so I understand the importance of caring for animals. For the past six years, I have taken care of two neighbor children, starting when they were 6 and 11 years old. Over this time, I supported them with daily supervision, homework help and tutoring. This experience has taught me responsibility and how to adapt to different personalities and needs as children grow. I am patient and organized, with strong communication skills and a calm approach in challenging situations. I am comfortable helping with light household tasks, routines, and educational support. I genuinely enjoy caring for others and take pride in being always in a positive and enthusiastic mode. As a college student, I bring a strong sense of responsibility to my caregiving work :)

“I cannot say enough good things about Jenna. From the moment she walked in, she brought ease, warmth, and confidence to our home. As a new mom, I was anxious about leaving my infant with anyone. Jenna quickly became the only person I trusted. She is intuitive with children, dependable, thoughtful, and always goes above and beyond. Her kindness is unmatched. She will be an invaluable presence in any family’s life.”
I grew up taking care of my little brother who is on the autism spectrum. I’ve lived with and bred both dogs and cats, so I know my way around taking care of them.
Hi, my name is Caleigh and I'm currently a student at the University of Utah. I am offering childcare and pet care. I come from a small town in Colorado where I have been babysitting since I was 11. I got my Red Cross certificate in 2017 and began babysitting right after. I babysat my sister before my parents trusted her alone, and then I moved to babysitting for teachers and my mom's friends (ages 4-10). I have three cousins in my family (ages 5, 4, and 2) and have been babysitting them since they were very little. I have babysat children of all ages, including one family with a 3 year old and 5 month old (dealt with a diaper blowout). I also have a puppy at home for whom I have cared for and I have experience in house sitting with two dogs for a week straight. I also have experience in cat sitting while a family spent 10 days in Florida, I took care of their two cats. I would describe myself as a creative person, with an imagination to fulfill toddlers dreams and games. I am funny and comforting, and can calm children down who may feel distressed being with someone new. I am very friendly and am very comfortable speaking with adults to figure out what the child/pet needs and how to continue their routine. I am very kind and patient and will sit through whatever I need to in order for a child/pet to feel most comfortable with me and/or the absence of their parents. I can drive and have a truck with a full size back seat for car seats. I am artistic, with lots of experience in drawing and writing and love to explore the creative side of children. I ski and love camping and rafting and outdoor adventures. I adore children and love spending time with them, learning about their interests and wildest dreams.

"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."
