Hi! My name is Jessica. I’m a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) on a neurology floor, and I’ve been caring for kids since 2018. I started babysitting back in high school and have worked with children of all ages: from newborns to teens. I’m currently in nursing school, so I take babysitting jobs for date nights and occasional needs. I’m CPR and Basic Life Support certified, calm under pressure, and experienced with medical situations. I’ve worked with infants as young as two weeks, toddlers, school-age kids, pre-teens, and children on the autism spectrum. I love creating a safe, happy, and structured environment where kids feel comfortable and parents can fully relax. A little about me personally: I’m married to my amazing husband, and we have a sweet cat named Oscar. I enjoy doing crafts, reading stories, going outside for walks, cooking simple kid-friendly meals, and helping with homework. I also have reliable transportation and am comfortable with pets. I’m responsible, patient, and easy to communicate with; many families describe me as warm, dependable, and great with kids. Whether it’s bedtime routines, bottle feeding, playtime, or simply keeping the evening running smoothly, I’m here to help! Looking forward to supporting your family for date nights, special events, and occasional babysitting needs!

“Very involved and engaged.”

Hello, I am a fun, loving and energetic person who enjoys working with children. I am a Kindergarten teacher who loves what she does! I have a ton of experience working with all different ages. I also have worked for a few different day care centers and have 9+ years experience working with children with ages ranging from 6 weeks old to 12 years old. I love using my creative outlook to make learning fun and enjoyable for kids. I also love playing games and interacting on a personal level with all children. I have a 3 year old I would like to bring with me on jobs as well.

“Super appreciated the care Emily provided our 18 month old. Our daughter has had very, very few babysitters and Emily was kind and warm, played with her and easily rolled with it when our gal got upset. Thank you, Emily, for your patience and care! ”

I’m a current CNA who was licensed six years ago. I’m also a student in the RN program. Additionally, I’ve been working as a substitute Para Educator at schools from elementary to high school. Since the New Year of 2024, I’ve gained valuable experience and was promoted to an official unlicensed Behavioral Technician. Growing up in a family of seven, with myself being the second oldest, I had ample experience babysitting my siblings. I’ve also nannied for friends and family for quite some time now. I decided to give UrbanSitter a try because my job as a behavioral technician won’t be necessary during the summer when kids won’t be in school, and I’ll still be available as a substitute. Therefore, I’m happy to take on a few nanny jobs here and there. I believe that as I progress in my experience as a CNA and BT, this will also be beneficial for my growth.

“Our family loves working with Elina. She was very helpful and caring with our kids. She helped with playtime, cleanup, dinner, story time, brush teeth, bedtime, and just relaxing time. We are seeing her on a regular basis.”
