Fresno
$22 per hour for 1 child

I have strong background in caregiving, especially with children, thanks to my experience as a summer camp counselor and after-school teacher at Episcopal. In those roles, I led engaging activities, supported learning, and helped create a fun, safe environment where kids could thrive. I'm dependable, patient, and highly organized—whether it’s managing daily routines, helping with homework, preparing meals, or handling after-school transitions. I’m also comfortable with light household tasks and have experience caring for pets, including feeding, walking, and playtime. I bring warmth, energy, and a genuine love for working with children and families, always aiming to create a supportive and positive atmosphere

I highly recommend Katelyn as a babysitter. With her experience working at multiple summer camps, she brings a deep understanding of how to care for and engage with children of all ages. Katelyn is incredibly kind, patient, and understanding—qualities that make her a natural with kids. She is reliable, punctual, and communicates well, always maintaining a calm and professional attitude. Whether she’s helping with homework, organizing fun activities, or simply providing a comforting presence, Katelyn consistently creates a safe and positive environment. Any family would be lucky to have her care for their children. Overall, she is a trustworthy, capable, and compassionate babysitter. I would recommend her without hesitation to any family looking for a dependable and caring presence in their children’s lives.

Booked by 7 families in Wharton, TX

Hi, my name is Brittany! I am a recent Howard University graduate and am currently working in finance. I am offering childcare, pet care, non-medical senior care, and housing services. I love children and have been babysitting since I was 8 years old. My responsibilities consisted of assisting with homework, meal preparations, changing diapers, feeding new borns, and bedtime routines. Among these, I also incorporated educational activities, arts and crafts, and outdoor games. In addition to babysitting the children of family members and family friends, I also volunteered at Rita Bright and Family Youth Center in Washington, D.C. from my freshman year to graduation. I was apart of a mentorship program where we would volunteer at Rita Bright and mentor children after school, assist them with their homework, take part in extracurricular activities/sports, while also providing them the opportunity to vent/release any built up tension they may have. In high school, I worked at the YMCA in San Diego as a volleyball coach. As a Volleyball Coach at the YMCA, I am responsible for teaching fundamental volleyball skills, including serving, passing, setting, and teamwork, to athletes of varying ages and skill levels. I plan and lead engaging practices, promote sportsmanship and positive attitudes, and ensure a safe, inclusive environment for all participants. Additionally, I support player development by providing constructive feedback, organizing drills, and preparing teams for games and recreational competition. I am comfortable with senior care and am willing to help prepare meals, picking up prescriptions, provide transportation, or even just provide some friendly care. I have been assisting with my grandmother for as long as I can remember and would love to help out in any way I can. In addition to loving children, I always love animals. I have been a pet owner to my baby Dakota for five years. I enjoy taking her for walks, playing at the park, or even just joining her in the backyard to sun bathe. And at the end of it all, she’s my cuddle baby. I would love to provide the same love to your fur baby when you’re away.

Brittany was quick to respond to a last-minute request. She pet-sat my two dogs during the 4th of July weekend - which is an added noise stressor for my already anxious dog. Brittany was attentive and patient with my babies. My xolo, who is weary of strangers, warmed up to her. We are super appreciative of Brittany and would highly recommend for hire.

Hello! My name is Natalia, and I would love the opportunity to care for your family. I am a warm, patient, and responsible person who genuinely enjoys spending time with children and helping them learn, grow, and feel safe. I have experience caring for children up to 10 years and because I come from a large family, I have always been surrounded by children and pets. Looking after younger family members and helping care for our animals has been a natural part of my life, teaching me responsibility, kindness, and the importance of creating a loving and supportive environment. I am bilingual in English and Spanish, and I have studied Psychology for three years at a university in Guatemala. I also have knowledge of the Montessori philosophy, which has helped me better understand children’s emotional and developmental needs. My long-term goal is to continue my education and specialize in child and adolescent psychology because helping children is something I am truly passionate about. I am also comfortable caring for dogs and assisting older adults if needed. I understand that every family is unique, and I am always happy to adapt to your routines and preferences. Whether it’s helping with homework, planning fun and educational activities, preparing simple meals, keeping play areas tidy, or simply being a caring and reliable presence, I am always willing to go the extra mile. I believe in treating every child with patience, respect, and encouragement. I value honesty, good manners, and strong principles, and I always welcome feedback because I want to continue learning and provide the best care possible. Thank you for considering me. I would be honored to earn your trust and become someone your children feel safe, happy, and comfortable with. My goal is to support your family with kindness, reliability, and genuine care every day.

I’ve known Natalia for a long time now, and she’s helped us out many times. She’s one of the most dependable people I know and is naturally great with kids, patient and kind. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter they can trust.

"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)."
