Booked by 4 families in South Houston, TX

Hi! My name is Yaseen, and I’m a responsible and caring babysitter with 5 years of experience working with children of different ages. I currently work in a hospital, which has strengthened my attention to safety, cleanliness, and staying calm in any situation. I am also BLS (Basic Life Support) certified, so parents can feel confident knowing their children are in safe and prepared hands. I enjoy creating a fun, positive environment for kids while also keeping routines on track. I can help with homework, prepare simple meals, organize activities, and keep children engaged with games, crafts, or outdoor play. My goal is to make sure kids feel comfortable, supported, and entertained while their parents are away. Families often describe me as dependable, patient, and attentive. I understand how important trust is when choosing someone to care for your children, and I always treat every child with kindness and respect as if they were my own family.

Yaya was amazing! She accepted my last-minute request for an all-day babysitting job and was incredibly responsive throughout the entire process. She was wonderful with my 2-year-old daughter, and I felt completely comfortable knowing she was in great hands. I truly appreciated her flexibility, reliability, and caring nature. I would absolutely recommend Yaya to other families and will definitely be using her again in the future!

Zari $16 per hour for 1 child

Childhood is such a beautiful yet challenging time of our lives. And because of this, every adult around us has the opportunity to affect that for better or for worse. For me, I love being a positive influence, it makes me smile knowing that as this child grows up, I can be a happy memory for them. I grew up as an only child, so I loved babysitting as I way to fill that "Big Sister" role. My first babysitting job was at my local church in Dallas, where I assisted in the nursery on Sundays. My favorite thing of all time though is cooking and baking, which is a hobby I learned at a young age myself. My skills include emotion management, patience, and decision making. When caring for children, I find these skills to be important not only for their experience but also their safety. As a sitter, I love to be hands-on with the child whether that's with crafts, homework, chores, etc. But, my primary goal is to provide a new experience through learning and play! I have multiple profiles on different platforms, so I am glad to share all in order to see my recommendations. I am trained in CPR, First Aid, and Stop The Bleed.

Booked by 6 families in South Houston, TX

Hi! My name is Saniya, I'm an online college student with a flexible schedule who enjoys working in childcare. For four years, I've enjoyed supporting families as a reliable childcare provider & teaching assistant. I'm comfortable caring for one child at a time. I'm also happy to help with cooking and housekeeping. I am creative, friendly, and love to help kids embrace their imagination. I enjoy playing games or puzzles outside of electronics, with the exception of educational apps. I'm also very comfortable enforcing household rules. I provide regular updates to parents via text or phone call while also following their preferred communication methods. I have completed early child development coursework. I am also trained in First Aid. I hope to bring my enthusiasm and experience to your family.

Saniya is a wonderful sitter. My first sitter cancelled on me and Niya responded to the request swiftly. She came in and my daughter took to her immediately. My toddler did not want her to leave and she even cried when she left. I recommend Niya 100% and will definitely use her again.

"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."

"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)."
