Hello Parents:) A Certified Clinical Medical Assistant with tons of experience! 27+ years. I’ve worked in pediatric clinic, behavioral health, nannying, licensed daycare, teacher’s assistant, kids dance instructor, house & pet sitter. I’m a student in the health field, radiology is my goal. I am the 2nd to oldest out of 5. I started to babysit at a very young age. I flourished quickly after starting young and it’s taught me lots of patience, responsibility, tolerance, how to multi-task. I’ve been described as very responsible, reliable, welcoming, kind, quick on my feet!, and dependable. I honestly enjoy and value working with children. Im also a proud community outreach lead and have a FB page which brings community info to kids and their parents in need. I help guide them in other afterschool programs, community services that include art, dance, music, instruments, reading, paint, language & other. I give them info to further their education and I even chat with parents if they need any guidance. Dance teacher volunteer. No child is “just too challenging”. Most are just misunderstood and just need a chance to be express feelings. I worked for my local Health Department Clinics and Hospital for 22+ yrs. 27+yrs in child care, 10+yrs in a class room setting. Early Childhood Development credits! Fully vaccinated, CPR & First Aid trained👍🏻. I feel very comfortable responding to any medical emergency, medication administration, disability, health conditions, including behavioral. I have been a Travel Nanny and loved every minute of it. The one-on-one attention gave me a different perspective on how to support parent & child as a team. I a Montessori Method believer. I like to be hands on, nurture in nature, active, arts & crafts, music!, books, baking, homework/projects support, biking/walking, any educational play is fun. Anything that helps inspire curiosity to discover & learn. I don’t shy away from bathing, feedings, cleaning, cooking, potty & tears. Also bed time stories, forts, mud puddles, movies and of-course a great snuggle when needed. Parenting styles may diff. so I respect every parents wishes & rules. Parents are trusting me with their most valuable so I strive to be my best. I’ve always enjoyed working with children because they are kind, fun and intelligent. It takes a special person with special gifts to work with children. I was blessed & thankful. I appreciate your time spent reading. If you have any questions, feel free to message me:)

“Karla was great at communicating, on time, thoughtful, brought lots of toys, and overall a pleasure to work with! Would hire her again in a heartbeat.”

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."
