Talon $25 per hour for 1 child

I’m a certified newborn care specialist with a calm, steady presence and a real understanding of how tender and overwhelming those early days can feel. I’m also CPR certified, which gives families an added layer of reassurance at night. I’ve spent time supporting infants in the NICU and caring for children with special needs and medical conditions, and that experience really shapes how I care for families. I’m patient, attentive, and very in tune with both baby and parent needs. In addition to newborn care, I also provide in-home pet sitting, senior companion care, and household support. My work across these roles has strengthened my ability to be adaptable, detail-oriented, and deeply attentive to the unique needs of each home I step into. Whether I’m caring for a newborn, supporting a senior, or looking after beloved pets, my approach is always rooted in reliability, compassion, and creating a sense of calm and trust. For families with pets, I offer overnight in-home care so animals can stay comfortable in their routine, along with daily updates for peace of mind. For seniors, I focus on companionship and light assistance, helping with daily routines, meals, and creating a safe, supportive environment. I also provide light household help and errand support to keep everything running smoothly. When I’m in your home, my goal is simple: to create a space where everything feels safe, cared for, and supported. Whether that means helping your baby stay settled so you can rest, making sure your pets feel secure while you’re away, or being a calm and reliable presence for a loved one, I show up fully for each role. Families often tell me they’re able to truly exhale knowing someone experienced and genuinely caring is there. I’m reliable, gentle, easy to communicate with, and I care deeply about creating a calm, supported space for your whole home no matter what services you acquire!

Ryah $22 per hour for 1 child

Hello there! I'm Ryah — a twenty-year-old student, sister, friend, and daughter, as well as a caring and dependable babysitter and nanny with over five years of experience working with children of all ages. Over the years, I've had the privilege of supporting many families as a trusted babysitter, spending two years as a dedicated nanny, working as an assistant director for a preschool enrichment company, teaching fitness and yoga classes, and gaining two years of hands-on experience as a preschool teacher's aide. Alongside my professional experience, 1 am currently a third year college student pursuing a degree in Human Development and Family Studies, with the goal of becoming a Child Life Specialist. Through these roles, I've developed a strong ability to balance fun and structure, encourage creativity, and respond calmly and confidently to the everyday moments that matter most. I love planning engaging activities, supporting learning through play, and helping children feel safe, heard, and valued. Whether it's assisting with homework, organizing crafts, playing games, or keeping daily routines on track, I take pride in creating a positive and nurturing environment for every child and family I work with. I believe communication/trust are the foundation of strong relationships with families, I strive to be someone both parents and children can rely on. I am CPR/First Aid certified (adjust if needed), attentive to individual needs, and always focused on maintaining a safe and supportive space. I would love the opportunity to bring my patience, energy, and genuine passion for working with children to your family, and to build meaningful, lasting connections along the way. I look forward to connecting with you!

Stephanie $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Stephanie and I'm the mom of 2 young adults and of Pretzel, our 2-year old rescue pup. I am offering child care, pet care and basic household tasks (i.e., cooking, laundry and light cleaning). My greatest passion is connecting with kids! I am the founder and director of Connect Us, a local nonprofit (www.connectusnow.org) whose camp, after-school and recess programs integrate children of all abilities and build social-emotional skills through collaborative play. For the past 18 years, I've had the privilege of engaging with hundreds of Connect Us kids ages 3-13, and I've learned a TON! Although Connect Us doesn't serve kids below age 3, I ADORE the little ones and throughout my life, have been the person who friends and family call upon to babysit their babies and toddlers. Due to federal funding cuts to nonprofits, Connect Us has been unable to obtain the funding it requires to continue our programs. We will be closing our doors after our final summer camp program in July. I not only bring your family many years of parenting and child development skills, I have a storage room full of play equipment, arts and crafts and games that I'm happy to share with your kiddos! I feel fortunate to have found Urbansitter to continue fulfilling my passion.
