Hi there, my name is Sam! I’ve been working with kids since I could remember and I’ve always loved it. I used to work at Disney World so if your kids love Disney we’ll definitely get along. With my experience in childcare and other relational jobs I’ve had I’ve learned to become very patient, kind, attentive, flexible, trustworthy, and creative. I can help with cooking, laundry, and other light household duties. In my free time I enjoy reading (especially about leadership, self-development, and communication), staying physically active, and finding new recipes to try. Thank you again for your consideration and I hope to hear from you soon!

NEW clients: Please message me before offering a job. I often get requests that expire before I can take action, job offers that have no information, or requests for schedules I cannot accommodate. I feel much more comfortable and safe accepting an offer with a family that has read my profile clearly and that provides complete information. My calendar is very well-kept and frequently updated. I a currently on leave from my full time daycare job and have a bit more flexibility with my schedule. -Pre-K teacher with 8 years of daycare/preschool experience -passionate about arts and antiracism -queer-friendly -pet-friendly -exp. caring for infants-middle schoolers

Alex was friendly and caring from the start. Our 17 month old had a great time and was appeared to be looking for Alex after she went home. Our toddler was having a hard time napping and Alex used her skills from working in childcare to keep her on schedule - thank you Alex!

Hi there, my name is Becca! I am a registered nurse and a recent graduate of North Park University, where I earned my Bachelor of Science in Nursing l. I have experience with newborns to preteens. I have worked in a nursery for the past 9 years and through this experience I have learned to take on a very patient, kind, calm, adaptable, creative nature to connect with children. I enjoy implementing milestone activities with young children along with reading books, and doing arts and crafts during our time. In my own free time I love to bake, hike, read, and travel. I also am a lover of animals! I am newer to UrbanSitter and I would greatly appreciate an opportunity! I'm excited to have the opportunity to work with your family and to get to know your children! Best- Becca (she/her) Provided Upon Request- Proof of CPR/BLS certification, Covid-19 Vaccination, & References/Resume

Hands down best sitter! Becca was on time and immediately jumped in getting to know our kids. She had no problem navigating bedtime and tidied up. We appreciated her flexibility and communication but most impressive, she really engaged our kiddos right when she walked through the door.
