Hi my name is Noreen , I am a mother of 3 adult children and grandmother to two beautiful boys ( age 5 and 2 years old ) . I am Irish and legal to work in the US . Have lots of experience of caring for children throughout the years . Willing to do occasional babysitting . I drive my own car, car seat installed with a clean license so can do drop off and pick up when needed . I’m pretty familiar with parks , aquarium , zoo and all those fun places for kids . I am fully Covid/ flu vaccinated . Look forward to hearing from you ,

Noreen helped us with my 2 year old. She was so great taking her to the park and sending me pictures. She was so so sweet with my daughter. She was also able to bring her grandson along one day and they made great friends. Noreen is a Godsend. I would hire her again in a heartbeat.

Hello! My name is Maria,and I’m excited to be a new member of UrbanSitter! I work at an orthodontic office during the week, where I have the joy of connecting with children of all ages and helping them feel comfortable and cared for. As a mom to my wonderful six-year-old daughter, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your child. I bring that same level of care, patience, and attentiveness to every family I work with. We also have a sweet Norwich Terrier named Giuseppe, so I’m very comfortable around pets too! I look forward to getting to know your family!

I am an experienced caregiver with a strong background in providing attentive and reliable care for children, pets, and households. From 2021 to 2023, I worked as a part-time nanny for three children, where I developed skills in organizing daily routines, preparing meals, assisting with homework, and engaging children in educational and recreational activities. In addition to childcare, I have experience caring for pets, ensuring their well-being through feeding, exercise, and companionship. I am also skilled in household management, including light cleaning, organizing, and keeping a safe and welcoming environment. My reliability, and nurturing approach make me a trustworthy and compassionate caregiver for families.

Hello! Here’s a bit about me: I studied Fine Art and Photography in college, earning a BA in Fine Arts. Currently, I am channeling my creativity into launching an online art store. Prior to this, I spent several years working in the medical field in various roles, including serving as an EMT in the Bay Area, where my compassion for others made a perfect fit and helped refine the ability to stay calm under pressure. I am certified in CPR and First Aid and am also a certified doula. My caregiving experience includes many volunteer hours as a preschool aide when my son, now 25 years old, was younger. I have always enjoyed being around both children and seniors. I helped care for my elderly father in his later years, and I have always had pets; currently, I share my home with two wonderful dogs. Caregiving is a natural part of who I am, and I find joy in providing support, warmth, and a reliable presence to the families I work with.
