Hi! My name is Josie! I am currently a student at the University of Utah living in SLC! I am 20 years old with over five years of babysitting experience. I am fun, responsible, and reliable with an open and flexible schedule to care for your little ones! I am more than happy to provide transportation to and from your child’s activities, homework help, meal preparation, and even pet care if needed. I am also CPR certified. I look forward to working with you!
“Josie is truly amazing with both our infant and toddler! She’s gentle, patient, and incredibly nurturing. From bottle-feeding and diaper changes to engaging our toddler with play and stories, she handles everything with care and confidence. Both kids are always calm and happy when she’s around. She follows our routines perfectly and keeps us updated while we’re out, which gives us so much peace of mind. Josie is reliable, responsible, and clearly experienced with little ones. We’re so grateful to have her and highly recommend her to any family looking for loving, trustworthy childcare for young children.”
Hi! I’m Carissa. I work in the medical field and am CPR/BLS certified, so safety is always my top priority. I primarily babysit for kids ages 2 and up and love creating a fun, caring, and dependable environment for them. I’m currently looking for part-time or date-night babysitting jobs! Feel free to message me and see I can sit for your kiddo!
“Punctual, friendly, communicative, and engaged. The kids had a great time.”
Welcome to my profile, I’m Kensy, a bilingual (English & Spanish) caregiver with years of hands-on experience supporting children from infancy through school age. I’ve worked as a nanny, daycare assistant, and currently serve as a paraeducator in a dual language elementary school. I’m confident caring for infants, including feeding, changing, naps, and soothing routines, and I truly enjoy helping little ones feel secure and loved. My approach is rooted in patience, creativity, and respect for each child’s individuality. I have experience incorporating Montessori-inspired methods that encourage independence, exploration, and meaningful play. Whether we’re doing arts and crafts, reading, or singing songs, I strive to make each day engaging and enriching. I’m also happy to support families with light household help and simple meal prep. If you’re looking for a dependable, nurturing, and experienced caregiver, I’d love to be a part of your child’s journey!
Hi I’m Sara! I have a natural passion for helping others, which is why I find joy in babysitting. With multiple years of experience caring for children, I strive to provide more than just supervision—I aim to be a supportive mentor and a helping hand for your family. Whether it’s assisting with homework, preparing healthy meals, or engaging playtime, I am dedicated to making sure your children feel safe and happy. I love baby sitting because I get to hear all of the cute things kids say and watch them learn. I have over 10+ years of customer service experience and love to cook!
“Sara responded to our last minute posting, and did a great job taking care of our 5 year old, who requested that we have her come back. She was very professional, helpful, got all of our daughter's bedtime routine done, and conversed well with her. We would recommend her to other parents, and plan to ask her to come take care of our daughter again. ”
Hi, my name is Sara. I’m a mom to 2 great kids ages 11 and 9. I am offering childcare, senior care, pet sitting/care, and household services. I have a lot of kid experience, from raising my own, to volunteering at the elementary school, to watching my friend’s kids. I also used to work at an elementary school and with kids in a living history experience. I have been caring for pets through another app for 11 years and have worked as a veterinary technician. I am confident with all animals. I have cooked professionally since 2002 and can accommodate various dietary restrictions. I love kids and animals. With my own kids I try to keep them busy outside or with crafts, and off of screens as much as possible.

"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."
