I am a 4th year Optometry Student and Nova Southeastern University. I have some experience children more so from a clinical optometry and vision therapy standpoint. I believe this to be a unique skill set that allows me to more observant of your child. I am CPR certified as it is required for my profession. I have five younger cousins that I’ve had the privilege to watch and help take care over the years. I have a little bit of experience as a caretaker as I was briefly my grandmother’s caretaker up until her passing. My boyfriend and I have a dog so I’m comfortable taking care and being around them. I believe I would describe myself as dedicated and passionate. With children, I can be very fun but I also know when it is necessary to be serious.

Hello UrbanSitter Families! 💕 My name is Tamara, and I would love the opportunity to care for your little ones! I’m 46 years old and have over 20 years of experience working with children from infancy through age 17. My professional background includes working as a Prevention Specialist, where I taught Interpersonal Cognitive Problem-Solving (ICPS) skills to preschool-aged children. I am also trauma-informed and have more than 15 years of experience working with high risk youth. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Human Services and am passionate about helping children learn, grow, and thrive in a safe, nurturing, and supportive environment. Whether you need an occasional date-night sitter, girls’ or guys night out, time to run errands, or simply some extra support for your family, I’m here to provide dependable, compassionate, and quality childcare you can feel confident about. I am also certified in Infant and Child First Aid and CPR, giving parents an added layer of peace of mind while their little ones are in my care. I would love to connect with your family, learn about your childcare needs, and hopefully become someone you can trust and rely on. I look forward to meeting you and your little ones! 😊💗 — Tamara

“Tamara was wonderful with our 5-month-old. She was engaged and attentive the whole time, followed our routines, communicated clearly, and was right on time. It was our first time hiring a babysitter and she made us feel at ease. We will definitely book her again. Highly recommend!”

Hello! I am currently studying for medical school and am working as a scribe full-time, but am looking for some extra work hours. I recently graduated from USF with a Master’s degree in public health. I have my BS in psychology/pre-med from Northwestern University. I have been babysitting since I was 12 years old when I received my safe sitter license. I am certified in CPR as a certified nursing assistant and lifeguard. I have watched children of all ages and abilities, and really value all that I have learned from them. Outside of watching children, I have skills in communication, cooking, tutoring, and cleaning.

Emily $17 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Emily and Ive been working in educational childcare since 2018 with a focus on children with intellectual and physical disabilities. Im going to USF for speech pathology and would love to babysit for your family. I am CPR trained. I do my best to avoid screen time and will opt for low stimulation shows when possible! I have my own car and no speeding tickets, so Im willing to help with pick up and drop off or any other driving based errands. I love to read, paint, and try new recipes and would love to share that in an age appropriate way, especially with themed arts and crafts options! I grew up going to Montessori schools so that philosophy is very important to me. Please let me know if you are interested and I am flexible on pricing!

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
