Drew $15 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Drew, and I’m 20 years old 😊 I have lots of babysitting experience and truly love spending time with kids, whether it’s playing, helping with routines, or just being a positive and caring presence. I’d be so happy to be a helping hand for parents who need a little extra support, especially in the evenings! I’m very nurturing, fun, and patient, and I always try to bring out the best in everyone around me. I’m also a dancer and currently a double major in college, so I’m very organized and responsible. I’m available on some weekdays and weekends, and I have my own car with a clean driving record, so transportation is never an issue, even though the gas prices are! I’d love to be someone you can count on, whether it’s for regular help or occasional date nights. If you’re ever in need of someone friendly and reliable nearby, I’d be more than happy to help 💛

$20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I am a caregiver at heart, and a Grandma with no grandchildren… yet. 😉 Kiddos: I have taken care of children for over 45 years, with a passion for newborns/infants. I am a mother of 2 grown children. Seniors: I have an elderly mother, in-laws and friends that have given me experience and a soft spot for caring for seniors. Pets: I have lifetime of love for animals, especially dogs and cats. It would be my honor to assist you. ❤️

I have had the pleasure of calling Cheri a colleague and friend for many years. She is one of the most caring and empathetic people I have ever met. She is reliable, dedicated and passionate about work and life. To have Cheri as a caregiver is truly an honor.

Booked by 1 family in Fort Mcdowell, AZ

I’m a 22-year-old senior at Arizona State University, majoring in psychology with a strong passion for working with children. I’m a non-smoker, non-drinker, and balancing my studies and responsibilities. I have extensive experience with kids, both personally and professionally. I’ve been babysitting my niece and nephew, now 10 and 8, since birth, giving me hands-on knowledge of child development through every stage—from diaper changes and bottle feedings to helping with homework and organizing fun, engaging activities. I also work with children professionally and hold a valid fingerprint clearance card, ensuring I’ve passed all necessary background checks. Safety and well-being are always my top priorities, and I take pride in being reliable, patient, and proactive. I love incorporating educational games, arts and crafts, and outdoor activities to keep kids engaged while encouraging creativity and learning. My psychology studies have helped me better understand how children process emotions, learn new skills, and develop healthy relationships. This knowledge allows me to respond with empathy and patience, especially in moments of frustration or uncertainty. I strive to create a nurturing environment where kids feel supported and valued while giving parents peace of mind. While I’m not big on dogs due to allergies, smaller dogs may be manageable for me. I haven’t had experience cleaning up after dogs, but I’m always open to learning. My primary focus is ensuring children feel safe, happy, and cared for while maintaining the routines and expectations set by their parents. Overall, I’m a responsible, dependable caregiver who genuinely enjoys helping children grow and thrive. I bring a positive, caring attitude to every job and am always eager to support families however I can.

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

Kamilah W., mom of one

photo of quoted parent Eric

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."
