Meet college nannies and sitters from Western Governors University

Hello my name is Angela i have been working with children for more than 10 years. I have experience as a babysitter, teacher assistant, and paraprofessional in public and private schools . I have worked with infants, toddlers, and school aged children in licensed childcare facilities, in home ,and in public and private schools settings. I am CPR and first aid certified , I have experience with potty training and I love to engage children in crafts and outdoor activities. I have acquired years of training from bright from the start and will provide your child the utmost care.

With 19 years of experience in education, I bring a wealth of knowledge, leadership, and genuine passion to every family I work with. Throughout my career, I have taught 1st, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th grades and have served in school leadership roles. These experiences have given me a deep understanding of child development, learning, behavior, and how to create environments where children feel safe, supported, and successful. In addition to my professional career in education, I have provided babysitting and nanny services for more than 25 years. I have extensive experience caring for children from newborns through teenagers and am comfortable adapting to the unique needs of every age and stage. Excellent references are available upon request. Although my professional career has been in education and school leadership, I have continued providing childcare throughout the years because I truly enjoy working with children and supporting families. As I search for my next long-term leadership opportunity, I am excited to dedicate more of my time to caring for children—something that has always been one of the most rewarding parts of my life. Over the years, many of the children I've cared for have described me as "firm, fair, and fun"—and I truly believe all three can exist together. Parents have affectionately referred to me as the local "Super Nanny" and even "The Baby Whisperer," compliments that I cherish because they reflect the trust families place in me. My philosophy is simple: children thrive when they are loved, respected, and held to high expectations. I encourage kindness, good manners, personal responsibility, and respect for both others and their environment. I believe children should spend time outdoors, use their imagination, solve problems, and learn to work cooperatively with others—including their siblings. I create a warm, structured environment where children feel safe, capable, and confident while having plenty of fun along the way. Whether your family is looking for an occasional date-night sitter, a dependable nanny, homework support, or someone who can confidently care for multiple children, my goal is always the same: to provide exceptional care while giving parents complete peace of mind. I strive to become a trusted extension of your family and someone your children are excited to see each time I walk through the door.

Hi - my name is Leah. I am offering child care, senior care and household services. I’m passionate about being a nanny and have 15+ years of experience caring for newborns, infants, toddlers, and children of all ages. I pride myself on providing exceptional, loving care that caters to each child’s unique needs. I’m highly skilled in managing children’s daily routines, including meal preparation, school schedules, and recreational activities. With my experience, I’m comfortable communicating with children at various developmental stages and assisting with schoolwork when needed. In addition to providing hands-on care, I can also handle transportation, including drop-offs and pick-ups, and help manage busy family calendars, ensuring appointments like school, extracurricular activities, sports clubs, and outings are organized and on time.

I’m 59, a non smoker, CPR and first aid certified, plus I am a Mom myself. I started babysitting again about 5 years ago. I missed having children in my life, especially since my son doesn’t have children of his own. I am now a regular sitter for multiple families here in Salt Lake. I have been with some of them for several years. They would be happy to provide references. I love to color with children and do arts and crafts. I like all kinds of board games. If you need meal preparation, I'm an excellent cook. I have a Chihuahua of my own so I am animal friendly. I even have experience caring for bearded dragons!

VACCINATED My name is Kris and I am 29. I have completed some college and am continuing my teaching degree currently. I work part time as a retail manager. I have been babysitting since a young age, am licensed in CPR, have watched kids ages 0-14, and have experience in disabled care during overnight camp-outs (volunteer work). I am the oldest of my siblings and cousins and have been helping watch them for many years, the youngest currently being 7 years old. I love watching over kids of all ages and I am able to relate to them well on a personal level. My hobbies include reading, listening to music, and going for hikes. My ambition is to eventually become a school teacher and I am willing to help/tutor your child(ren) with their work as well. I plan on persuing a mathematics teaching position but am knowledgeable about most subjects. I would love to hear from you!

Greetings!! I'm thrilled at the opportunity to introduce myself to you. My name is Mikaela. I am a loving, kind, and genuine person who values responsibility, respect, and trust. My family-oriented nature and sociable personality make it easy for me to connect with others, and I believe in living life to the fullest by exploring new places, cooking, meeting new people, and enjoying each moment. As a wife and mother of a 13 year-old son, I understand the joys and challenges of parenting. I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Multi-Media Studies/New Media from Florida Atlantic University and an MBA in Healthcare Management from Western Governors University. I am a Practice Manager at Gastro Health-Pediatrics located in Boca Raton; where I bring my extensive business background and experience in Maternal Fetal Medicine, OB/GYN, and Pediatrics to support and advocate for others. You might be wondering, "What brought her to UrbanSitter?" Great question! I believe that children are a true blessing, and I am eager to meet and support other families in any way I can. I’ve always believed it takes a village to raise a child, and I know firsthand what that entails. I take joy in getting to know each child's unique personality, likes, and dislikes, and I always ask parents for this information to create a fun and educational plan for our time together. I focus on providing personalized, one-on-one attention to each child and enjoy engaging in a variety of activities, from arts and crafts to reading, singing, dancing, yoga, and sports. I’m also more than happy to assist with cooking and other household tasks if needed, and I make sure to clean up after every activity. I look forward to connecting with you and learning more about your family's needs. Please feel free to reach out to me at any time. Sincerely, Mikaela C.
