Melinda $22 per hour for 1 child

I am a dedicated, responsible, and nurturing caregiver — and a mom of two adult daughters (ages 26 and 23) — with a lifelong love for working with children from birth through the teenage years. Caring for children isn’t just something I do; it’s something I truly enjoy and value. When my daughters were young, I thrived on playing with them, teaching them, and weaving learning into everyday activities. I strongly believe that children learn best through play, structure, creativity, and positive encouragement. My oldest daughter excelled well beyond her age level thanks to the fun, educational routines we created together, and I would love to bring that same approach to other children. I have always been deeply involved in my children’s schools and was the homeroom mom in both of my daughters’ classes throughout their school years. Even in middle school, teachers often reached out to me for additional help or support—especially with students who needed extra patience, guidance, or encouragement. Being trusted in that way is something I take great pride in. As a parent myself, I fully understand the importance of having someone you can depend on and trust—whether it’s for a date night, regular weekly care, school pickups, homework support, or simply having reliable extra help. I am safety-focused, compassinate, and attentive, and I work hard to maintain a clean, organized, and structured environment while still keeping things fun and engaging. I also have experience in special needs such as ADD/ ADHD, ODD, autistic spectrum, multiple sclerosis, and neurological disorders. I am available seven days a week, with an open and flexible schedule, and I am especially interested in building consistent, long-term relationships with families throughout the week and on weekends. I can assist with: - Babysitting for infants, toddlers, children, and teens - School pickup and drop-off - Homework help and tutoring - Preparing snacks and meals - Creating structured routines and educational play - Maintaining a clean, organized environment related to children’s care I would love the opportunity to support your family and provide dependable, nurturing care for your children.

Booked by 1 family in Ruskin, FL

Hello my name is Jill Rose . I’m currently a retired registered nurse. I am studying my masters degree in advanced registered nurse practitioner. I can cook, drive, & sit with your children or senior. My experience is with school aged children for 5yrs and seniors for 25yrs. My background is in cardiology, oncology, long term acute care, & behavioral health. I enjoy painting and reading books. I am CPR and CPI certified. I have two golden doodles. I can do your errands, laundry and sit with whomever you need me to.

I highly recommend Jill as a sitter. She is incredibly responsible, patient, and attentive with people of all ages. She always puts safety first while also making sure those in her care feel comfortable, supported, and engaged. She is dependable, punctual, and communicates clearly with families, which makes her easy to trust and work with. Whether it’s helping with schoolwork, preparing meals, or creating meaningful activities, she approaches every job with professionalism and a positive attitude. Those she cares for genuinely enjoy spending time with her, and families can feel confident knowing their loved ones are in capable, compassionate hands. I would absolutely recommend Jill to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter.

Monique $20 per hour for 1 child

I am a dependable and caring person with 4 years of consistent experience caring for my grandchildren. I am comfortable supervising children and making sure they are safe, happy, and looked after. I would describe myself as fun, silly, and easygoing, and I connect with kids well through conversation, playing with their toys, and spending time with them in a relaxed, natural way. I focus on keeping children comfortable, smiling, and at ease while following the parents’ routines and expectations. I am reliable, patient, and attentive, and I take childcare seriously when it comes to safety and responsibility. I can help with meal preparation and snacks, as well as light errands or grocery shopping if needed. My approach is simple: I show up, I pay attention, and I make sure children feel safe, cared for, and happy while they are with me. I also have a lot of experience with and love dogs and cats and birds.

"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)."
