"Amina came and helped us out when our babysitter canceled last minute. She was great with our kids. Even our 11 month old son who has stranger anxiety warmed up to her."

I have over 30 years of experience as a caregiver to children, pets and the elderly. I have been responsible for multiples, pick-ups, drop-offs, meals, homework help, bathing, bedtime and overnight stays. I am an animal lover so I am more than happy to help with pet sitting and care as well. I also have experience working with special needs children. I was previously an Intensive Behavior Instructional Assistant for the Garden Grove Unified School District for over 8 years. I have my AA in Social & Behavioral Science, Child & Adolescent Development and Psychology. ***My per child amount is always negotiable.
“Elizabeth helped me with my new puppy and old cranky pup and was very reliable. She communicated well, was on time and my pups were very happy when I got home. I would definitely use her again.”

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.
