Hi! I’m Sierra 😊 I have 10+ years of experience working with children, including the last 5 years as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) supporting kids with autism. I’m patient, reliable, and love creating a fun, structured, and safe environment. I have experience with multiple age groups, school pickups, daily routines, and behavior support. I also focus on helping children feel comfortable, build confidence, and enjoy their time while learning through everyday activities. I’m happy to assist with light household tasks and pet care as well. I truly enjoy building strong connections with families and making sure kids feel safe, supported, and cared for. I’m new to this app but bring extensive hands-on experience and would love the opportunity to connect with new families! Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) • CPR & First Aid (Infant/Child) • Mandatory Reporter • Driver’s License

Hi there! I'm Jenna. I am here on UrbanSitter to offer childcare, caregiving, and pet sitting services on an as needed basis. A little about me: I am a wife and mother to a 16 year old with two dogs in the home. I work remote full time as the head of support for an ecommerce company! As a former Kindergarten teacher, I have the experience you want and strive for excellence for the sake of excellence alone. I believe in challenging others to do more than what they thought possible and I take the safety and experience of every child, individual, and pet as a top priority. I am available for childcare/caregiving on evenings and weekends with full availability for pet sitting that would allow me to work from your home. Best, Jenna

My personality is patient, responsible, and compassionate. I’m naturally nurturing but also very reliable and detail-oriented, which helps when managing schedules, household routines, and making sure everyone’s needs are met. I believe communication, trust, and consistency are very important when caring for others. Some of my strengths include being organized, observant, and calm under pressure. I’m also very respectful of each family’s routines and preferences, and I aim to make life easier by helping with daily tasks like light housekeeping, meal preparation, errands, or pet care when needed. Overall, I bring a positive attitude, strong work ethic, and genuine care for the well-being of the people and homes I work with.

Thanks for your consideration, * Can except last minute bookings and fill ins:. 1 child $25 (2 hr min ) 2 children $28 (2 hr min) *Driving to school/extracurricular activites etc. ranges from $35-60 depending on distance etc. From 78628. If you only need 1 hr of in home care that would be $35. Thank you for your considerstion, Candace

Candace is fantastic with my little girls and they look forward to her babysitting them every time. She's also reliable and is a quick learner. Every kid has their own routine, food preferences, etc. and it can be a lot to catch a babysitter up on, but Candace learns quickly and retains everything.

"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!"
