Hello, my name is Adriana. I am currently a college student pursing a degree in education. I aspire to be an elementary school teacher one day and while I finish up my online classes, I would love to work with a family. I currently have a full time job so Im looking to work outside those hours. I also have about 7 years of childcare experience where I have worked with children of all ages from infants to school age. I can also provide sources from amazing families I’ve worked for so Please feel free to message me if you’re interested or for any questions you may have!
Hi my name Is Deborah, I am a 25 year old mom of a 5 year old boy and 10m old girl (both have to come with me) both are well behaved. I have my own transportation and I am looking for a happy family to offer child care too while I go back to college to finish my nursing certification. I love being a care provider. I have 5+ years of experience with kids ranging from 0-17. I also have experience in special needs children’s care. I have worked with several families through the Urban Sitter app and I am excited to assist someone new! I love all animals, I grew up on a ranch with many animals and I am happy to accommodate any animals special treatment, diet, needs etc. I have little experience caring for senior citizens other than helping my own grandparents but I am happy to help in anyway! I also am willing to be a household assistant by helping run errands, cook , clean etc.
Hello! It's so nice to meet you. My name is Bianca, and I am a local babysitter with extensive experience in childcare, training, and education. I love children of all ages and use my energetic, creative, and soft skills to care for and educate them. My goal is to make your child feel safe, and given the opportunity, equip them for the world around. My experience includes working at Primrose Schools as a child educator, serving as a caretaker and student leader at a local church, and family babysitting. I have extensive references per request and my primary priority is clear communication between the parent/guardian and myself to ensure the best is given to your child. I look forward to meeting you and your lovely family!
I'm a very reliable, energetic and patient person. I'm originally from Colombia so my first language is Spanish but I know English. I have a lot of experience with kids. In my country I work as a teaching assistant for 3 years in a primary school, In USA I worked as an au pair for more than a year and for more than 4 years working for the same family with a neurodivergent kid. I have experience with kids from 6 months to 10 years and special needs kids too. I love kids and I feel very comfortable with them. Right now I’m looking for a nanny position in the morning since I’m going to school in the afternoon.
Hi! I’m a licensed social worker currently working part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule for childcare. I have years of experience caring for children and was a full-time nanny before starting university. I’ve cared for children of different ages and love creating a fun, safe, and nurturing environment where kids feel comfortable and supported. I also have nieces and a nephew who I absolutely adore, so spending time with children has always been a big part of my life. Through my professional experience, I’ve also had the opportunity to work with pediatric patients, which has given me additional experience understanding children’s individual needs, personalities, and emotions. I genuinely love working with children and would be happy to help with everything from playtime and activities to homework, meals, routines, and bedtime. My goal is always for both the child and parents to feel comfortable, safe, and confident in my care

"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!"
Hillary S., parent
"We used Tania for a last minute emergency. She responded very quickly. My daughter seemed to enjoy herself. My son napped most of the time. I enjoyed how she kept me updated by text."
