Hi! My name is Lina, and I’ve been working on UrbanSitter for a few years now. I am an auntie of eight incredible nieces and nephews whom I have helped take care of from birth into their childhood. I’m conversant in Amharic, French, and I am somewhat conversant in Arabic and Spanish. I am energetic, creative, and read wonderful bedtime stories! I can help with all kinds of homework, and can engage in various activities. If there are any particular subjects/activities or developmental milestones you would like me to help with, please let me know! I pay attention to detail & can maintain an organized space during and after activites. I take constructive criticism very seriously and try my best to implement changes immediately. I love working with children, from birth to big kids! Please don’t hesitate to ask any questions! At this time I am only available on an occasional basis. Thank you! -Lina
“Absolutely amazing! The kids loved her and she was so attentive with them. Would highly recommend. ”
Hi! I'm Catalina, a caring, responsible, and bilingual caregiver with over 10 years of experience working with children of different ages, from infants and toddlers to adolescents. I have a background in Psychology and experience working with children with special needs, as well as extensive experience as a nanny and childcare provider. I enjoy creating a safe, positive, and fun environment where children can feel comfortable and engaged. I love doing age-appropriate activities such as arts and crafts, reading, outdoor play, and creative activities. I’m also happy to support families with routines, homework, and bedtime when needed. I’m CPR trained, have reliable transportation, and can provide references. I’m bilingual in English and Spanish and am comfortable working with both children and pets. I’m currently available for occasional babysitting in the afternoons and evenings, as well as weekends. I’m happy to help with date nights, occasional childcare, school pick-ups, or when parents simply need an extra hand.
“Catalina was an incredible caretaker for my daughter! My daughter warmed to her right away. Catalina had many ideas for crafts and activities to keep my daughter engaged for a full day - and what a fun surprise for me to see their artwork at the end of the day! Catalina is calm, friendly, and knowledgeable about children. It was a great experience!”
Hello parents and guardians. I'm seeking a full/part time position to care for your love ones. I've studied nursing in university, have over 15 beautiful years experience as a nanny, in addition to being a part time summer camp leader. I'm CPR, First Aid and AED Certified. I’m also a certified cook, with several certifications. I can provide references upon request. I look forward to your response. Thanks.
Hi there! My name is Sarah, and I’m a recent UTSA graduate with a BS in Biochemistry. I am a current medical assistant and applying to PhD programs for Fall 2026 to investigate disease mechanisms, particularly with Type 2 Diabetes and Obesity. As the oldest of five, I’ve been taking care of little ones since they were babies. Outside of family, I’ve had hands-on experience as young as 3 years old, and I’ve also provided tutoring for high school students. Whether it’s helping with homework, playing games, reading stories, or organizing fun activities, I create a safe, nurturing, and enjoyable environment for your child. I’m BLS/CPR certified, can cook, and I’m comfortable with household tasks. I’m well-versed in caring for animals as I have a cat of my own and occasionally watch over family friends’ pets (most being 4 dogs small and large and 1 cat), making me the perfect option for families with pets. If you’re looking for someone responsible, caring, and fun, I’d love to meet your family!
“Great! Highly recommend ”
