I’m a current CNA who was licensed six years ago. I’m also a student in the RN program. Additionally, I’ve been working as a substitute Para Educator at schools from elementary to high school. Since the New Year of 2024, I’ve gained valuable experience and was promoted to an official unlicensed Behavioral Technician. Growing up in a family of seven, with myself being the second oldest, I had ample experience babysitting my siblings. I’ve also nannied for friends and family for quite some time now. I decided to give UrbanSitter a try because my job as a behavioral technician won’t be necessary during the summer when kids won’t be in school, and I’ll still be available as a substitute. Therefore, I’m happy to take on a few nanny jobs here and there. I believe that as I progress in my experience as a CNA and BT, this will also be beneficial for my growth.
“Our family loves working with Elina. She was very helpful and caring with our kids. She helped with playtime, cleanup, dinner, story time, brush teeth, bedtime, and just relaxing time. We are seeing her on a regular basis.”
Hello! My name is Marian. I am 29 years old. I am currently at school doing a pre nursing program. I am from Colombia, so I speak Spanish! I have a bachelor’s degree as a Spanish teacher. I have been working with kids for over 6 years here in the USA, all ages! I have my own transportation. I considered myself a very responsible and respectful person. I am offering child care, but also I could watch your pet. Thank you for reading me.
“Certainly! Here is a positive review you could use: I highly recommend Marian. She took excellent care of my kids, showing great responsibility and kindness. I will definitely be hiring her again soon!"”

“Christina has worked with our family since my son was just a baby; he’s almost 7 years old (I also have a 5 year old now). We first became acquainted because she was my colleague in higher education and I learned she also was a nanny/babysitter. During this time, I’ve had the pleasure of getting to know Christina better and seeing her nurture my children in such a positive way. I believe that she is well qualified and experienced to accept the challenge of any childcare position. When Christina first started, she watched my infant son so that my husband and I could go out on dates. 20 months later, our daughter was born and Christina soon began watching our two children. This meant her responsibilities increased to watching the two children alone, making meals for them, and taking them on short outings to the park, the swimming pool, the mall, etc. Christina is upbeat and positive but also able to set boundaries with the children. Whenever she cares for them they are very excited to see her. I have the utmost confidence in her judgment and maturity and have always felt comfortable leaving my children in her care. I recommend Christina without reservation.”
Worked in a daycare 2 separate times. With school age, infants and toddlers. Have raised 2 children on my own. I also have had multiple pets growing up and current.
Warm, patient, and reliable. I love supporting seniors and pets and am excited to build experience with kids through care, play, and meaningful engagement.

"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."
