Hello! I'm a full-time college student studying Biology. On my time off, I like to read, bake, and binge a show. I come from a bigger family so I've always helped take care of people when I can. I enjoy helping others with academics since I've had roles as a mentor/tutor from middle through high school. I'm comfortable in the kitchen and cleaning up around the house.
“Ka’imi was great! My toddler warmed to her right away. She communicated well, was professional, was amused by my toddler (which I feel is always a good sign!) and was able to do some cleaning after bedtime as well. Highly recommend. Came home to a clean living room a sleeping toddler. ”
Hi! I’m Gisela. Im a nursing student, experienced caregiver, and someone who genuinely loves working with kids. I’ve worked through the YMCA in after-school programs with children from 1st to 5th grade, and I’m also the proud, very involved aunt to a 5-year-old niece who keeps me on my toes. I’m great with animals (dogs are my specialty, but I fully respect cats and their space), comfortable with cleaning and household help, and I bring a lot of warmth and structure to the families I work with. I come from a Mexican background where caring for others is second nature, and my healthcare experience has taught me patience, attentiveness, and strong communication. I chose nannying because it fits well with my nursing school schedule and because caregiving is something I truly enjoy.
Hi! I’ve been babysitting for years, working with various ages from infancy to teens. I am currently a SAHM for my own child and am looking to watch an infant along with mine (part-time preferred). Your house or mine is fine, either way. WFH parents is a plus. Willing to offer a slightly reduced rate for this arrangement. Benefits for you and your baby: - Socialization with a child their age in a more personal space - A caregiver that is well equipped in infant care - Cheaper rate - I can teach your ASL baby signs that they can use to communicate 😊 (if you’d like) Message me if you’d like to know more about how I make it work with caring for more than one child.
“Nadiia was on time and very friendly! She played with my son and did a good job with him. My son was happy with her and felt comfortable right away. :)”
Hello! I’m a college student studying child development and working as a behavioral technician for children on the Autism spectrum😊 I have a passion for working with children! I’m great at adjusting to the needs of both kids and their parents.
Hello Urban Sitter families! My name is Hadie, I am a Registered Nurse who took a step back from my full-time bedside nursing career to be with my family and work as a Per diem Nurse. I joined Urban Sitter back in 2015, where I worked with several families and became a nanny to one family for 8 years. I am offering child care, pet care, and senior care services. I enjoy being a babysitter/caregiver and have cared for individuals of all ages, newborn to 100 years old, and all ages in between. I cook, clean, organize, drive, and do anything asked to the best of my ability. I love working with children and creating all kinds of indoor and outdoor activities, movie watching, singing and dancing, baking, sports, and even arts and crafts. I cannot wait to see what opportunities I get and the families I will meet. Thank you for your time! I'm currently not taking full-time jobs; however, I am interested in a part-time job if it is the right fit for both of us and scheduling. I would mostly love to help with date nights/occasional babysitting.
