Hi, I’m Payton! I work in higher education and help coach the UW dance & cheer team. I have a deep passion for childhood development and learning, particularly the ways that daily actions contribute to this, as evident by both my bachelor’s and master’s degrees in education. The way babysitting fits into this is so much fun. Some of my favorite things are getting outdoors, crafting, playing alongside children, and helping kids learn. I have babysat regularly over the past 7 years, but have been babysitting, tutoring, and teaching dance since high school.

I have been babysitting and working with kids since I turned 13 and started walking to babysitting jobs in my neighborhood. I love going on walks, reading, and doing crafts! I currently work at a general contractor coordinating our high school and college internships. I am looking for occasional nanny jobs.
“Emma was great! On time, engaging with our son, and listened well to instructions for the day. She was responsive and had a rave review from the kiddo when we got home!”

Nice to meet you families! My name is Melissa and I have been working as a caregiver for the last 8+ years. I truly enjoy the company of children and nurture their artistic side. A little bit more about me. I have a background on Architecture and Graphic Design. I love art & crafts, and doing these projects with kiddos is fun (except for the mess). I have a lot of experience with kids between 2-8y/o and experience with babies from 3 months-18 months. I’m excited to be part of your crew of back up childcare!!!
“Melissa was great with our 10 month old he was very happy! They played and she helped him with nap time! Thank you Melissa!”

"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."
