Hello I’m Addison and I will like to babysit your little ones, I have a twin sister and we love to babysit together for extra hands! I am starting college this fall so looking for summer jobs. I am CPR certified and have my drivers license.
Hi! I’m Hannah, and I’ve lived in the Meyerland area of Houston, Texas, my entire life. I have over 5-10 years of experience working with children in many different settings, including as a teacher’s assistant, in infant and toddler daycares, preschools, and with elementary school-aged kids. I’ve also worked as a camp counselor at a 24-hour sleepaway camp, where I gained experience in creating fun and safe environments for kids of all ages. I have also had the privilege of working with children with autism and ADHD, helping them feel supported and understood while fostering their growth and confidence. Currently, I’m on the path to a career in the legal field, but I’d love to babysit part-time because I genuinely enjoy caring for children. Building connections, encouraging creativity, and providing a nurturing environment is something I’m truly passionate about. I’d be so excited to bring my experience and love for childcare to your family!
Hi! My name is Debanhi, and I’m a 24-year-old college student with over 7 years of childcare experience. I have worked with children of all ages, from newborns to school-aged children, through full-time nanny positions, part-time care, and occasional babysitting. I have an Associate degree in Childhood Development and I’m currently continuing my education while working with families. I truly love working with children and enjoy creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where they can learn, explore, and grow. I love doing hands-on activities such as arts and crafts, reading, puzzles, outdoor play, and encouraging creativity. I believe every child is unique, and I always take the time to understand their personality, routines, and individual needs. I am happy to follow each family’s preferences, whether that includes a structured schedule, limited screen time, or lots of interactive activities. I just recently opened my account on UrbanSitter, so I don’t have any reviews on my profile yet. However, I’ve worked with great families and would be more than happy to provide those references. I would love the opportunity to become someone your family can trust and a positive part of your child’s life!
“Debanhi was great with my two little girls. She sent pictures throughout the morning of them playing in the park, took them to lunch and played with them. My oldest is already asking when she can come back to watch them again. We will call her for sure!”
Hi! I’m Timiah, and I have over 10 years of experience working with children. I’ve cared for infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and school-aged children in both classroom settings and one-on-one care. Throughout my career, I’ve focused on creating a safe, loving, and fun environment where children can learn, explore, and feel comfortable being themselves. Working with children has always been my passion. I love watching them reach new milestones, build confidence, and discover the world around them. Whether we’re reading books, doing crafts, playing outside, or working on early learning activities, I enjoy making every day meaningful and fun. I’m also a proud mom of four, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your children. I know firsthand that parents want someone who is dependable, patient, and caring, and that’s exactly what I strive to be. After spending many years working in childcare centers, I’ve decided to work independently so I can give families more personalized care and build lasting relationships with the children I care for. My goal is to become someone your children look forward to seeing and someone you can feel completely confident leaving them with. I would love the opportunity to support your family and provide a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where your little ones can thrive.
“Great and reliable. My son loves her so much. Professional and caring. Your kids would fall in love with her. Overall 10 out of 10”
Hi! I’m a licensed social worker currently working part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule for childcare. I have years of experience caring for children and was a full-time nanny before starting university. I’ve cared for children of different ages and love creating a fun, safe, and nurturing environment where kids feel comfortable and supported. I also have nieces and a nephew who I absolutely adore, so spending time with children has always been a big part of my life. Through my professional experience, I’ve also had the opportunity to work with pediatric patients, which has given me additional experience understanding children’s individual needs, personalities, and emotions. I genuinely love working with children and would be happy to help with everything from playtime and activities to homework, meals, routines, and bedtime. My goal is always for both the child and parents to feel comfortable, safe, and confident in my care
