Booked by 1 family in Gold River, CA

Hello, I graduated from UC Santa Cruz in 2018, and recently received my masters. I am employed full time at a nonprofit organization, and looking for opportunities on the weekends and evenings. I have over 7 years of experience working with children 4-16yrs. My first experience was taking care of my younger cousins, and then professionally working at a school. I supported English-language learners achieve their reading goals. I also was an afterschool program facilitator working with kids 5-10, so I have tried every arts and craft project. I have classroom experience supporting Kindergartners with their dual immersion education & supporting them with their playground activities. I love education and enjoy supporting the development of young minds. I am bilingual and happy to assist with homework, household activities, and chores! I have always enjoyed babysitting and working with kids, which is why I have decided to join UrbanSitter.

“Ashley is very friendly, reliable, and considerate of our household rules and preferences. Gets along great with our kid. As an added bonus, her Spanish skills have really helped our child's Spanish learning.”

Cadence Mckenzie $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Cadence! I’m a college student majoring in childhood education and I’m also a vocalist. I’ve been babysitting for about 8 years, and I really enjoy spending time with kids and helping out families who need an extra hand. I’ve worked with all ages, from toddlers to older kids, and I’m comfortable handling different routines and personalities. People usually describe me as patient, dependable, and fun to be around. I like to keep kids busy with games, crafts, and music sometimes we’ll sing together or make up little songs just for fun. I can also help with things like homework, meals, and bedtime if needed. I take safety seriously and always make sure both kids and parents feel comfortable. Babysitting has always been something I genuinely enjoy, and I’d love to get to know your family! I’m looking for full time/ part time positions as well as once in a while jobs.

Hi parents! I am Elena, a caring and friendly undergrad college student currently attending Sac State!🐝 I'm studying to become a mental health clinician at either elementary or middle school, so working with children is something I'm in the long-run for. I'm the eldest to three younger siblings (aged 14 months, 9, and 18) and care for several cats, dogs, and lizards in my home! I have three years of working with children under my belt as an after school program leader to first through sixth graders. I am also currently working at Village Montessori in Carmichael, caring for preschoolers from 18 months to TK. From these experiences, I am prepared to watch over children at any stage of development! I am flexible to the needs of each family, and I would love to meet yours!
