Robert $16 per hour for 1 child

Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Bob. I took an early retirement to take care of my mother and father after they fell ill. I didn’t want others taking care of them, especially when I was fully able. It was an honor to care for my parents until their passings, and gave me a feeling of deep satisfaction. I am able to cook, and do a great job keeping the house clean and tidy. I have an adult daughter, and two grandchildren, whom are the loves of my life. I enjoy spending time with them, yet they stay very busy with school and outside activities. That leaves me time to share my experience with other children and seniors. My compassion, kindness, patience, and understanding, helps me relate to multi-generations. I am usually available on short notice, and look forward to meeting you, and helping with you or your loved one’s daily needs. My favorite volunteer job was participating in meals on wheels. Many times I was the only contact my seniors incurred with the outside world. I enjoyed brightening their day, and gave them the extra love and attention they deserved. I have very reliable transportation, having just purchased a new car in June 2026. I also have a Yorkie named Maisie, and a cat named Socks. I love animals, and they love me. I often take care of other people’s pets when they are out of town, or unwell. Please consider meeting me in person, so we can get to know one another, and discuss your specific needs. I am living my best life with a positive attitude and a warm heart. I don’t use drugs or alcohol, and would be willing submit to random drug testing, and a background check, I look forward to talking with you soon.

Jeannie $20 per hour for 1 child

I have a BSW (Bachelor of Social Work) from USF. I am a licensed Realtor . I like to stay busy and have volunteered for over 30 years with a local hospital. Since Covid, I am not longer doing that. My greatest joys in life are my two sons and six grandchildren. I am active and enjoy taking my grands to the park and the pool. I also enjoy helping home schooling them. I have volunteered at my church for years, often taking people to doctor appointments and chemo. I have my own car and am able to run errands if needed. I love cats and dogs. I enjoy walking dogs. The last dog I took care of, Sunny, needed long walks. We did 3 miles a day plus. This was in Idaho. Not sure that is practical in Tampa in the summer.

Booked by 13 families in Durant, FL

Hello UrbanSitter Families! 💕 My name is Tamara, and I would love the opportunity to care for your little ones! I’m 46 years old and have over 20 years of experience working with children from infancy through age 17. My professional background includes working as a Prevention Specialist, where I taught Interpersonal Cognitive Problem-Solving (ICPS) skills to preschool-aged children. I am also trauma-informed and have more than 15 years of experience working with high risk youth. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Human Services and am passionate about helping children learn, grow, and thrive in a safe, nurturing, and supportive environment. Whether you need an occasional date-night sitter, girls’ or guys night out, time to run errands, or simply some extra support for your family, I’m here to provide dependable, compassionate, and quality childcare you can feel confident about. I am also certified in Infant and Child First Aid and CPR, giving parents an added layer of peace of mind while their little ones are in my care. I would love to connect with your family, learn about your childcare needs, and hopefully become someone you can trust and rely on. I look forward to meeting you and your little ones! 😊💗 — Tamara

“Tamara was wonderful with our 5-month-old. She was engaged and attentive the whole time, followed our routines, communicated clearly, and was right on time. It was our first time hiring a babysitter and she made us feel at ease. We will definitely book her again. Highly recommend!”

I love watching dogs and watching them inspired me to get a puppy of my own! Dogs must get along with my puppy and he loves to play! Long walk and the dog park are guaranteed with me.

Dayana $17 per hour for 1 child

I am a caring and responsible childcare provider with professional experience as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), specializing in working with children with autism and special needs. While I have not worked formally as a nanny, I am also a mother, which has given me hands-on experience in daily childcare, safety, and child development. I currently work Monday through Friday from 7:00 AM to 1:00 PM, so I am available for afternoon, evening, and weekend childcare. I focus on supporting positive behavior, routine building, and developmental skills using structured and supportive strategies when needed. I am patient, reliable, and deeply committed to creating a safe and nurturing environment for children.
