$28 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Colfax, CA

Hi my name is Alexandra, I have a great passion for working with children and have dedicated the past few years to their care and development. For two years, I worked in Newcastle as an Extended Day Instructor for the CARE program. Currently, I work in Lincoln, where I care for children from TK to 5th grade in another CARE program. Additionally, I work as a Health Clerk, handling medical emergencies and assisting students who come to my office for medical attention. Spending time with children, playing, and engaging in activities they enjoy is something I truly love. My goal is always to create an environment where they feel valued and cared for. My commitment to fostering a nurturing and dynamic learning environment allows me to connect with each child and support their unique journey of growth and discovery. In my role as an Instructional Aide for the CARE program, I also plan and implement engaging activities for students and serve snacks. If you'd like to check my references, please contact me. I can give you the numbers of families I've worked with before.

“I highly recommend Alexandra as a babysitter! I have two very active 4-year-olds, and she always knows how to keep them entertained and happy. She's incredibly patient and creative, constantly coming up with fun games and activities that capture their attention. Plus, she's really loving and attentive, always ensuring they're safe and well cared for. My kids absolutely adore her and get so excited when she comes over! I trust her completely with my little ones. She's reliable, responsible, and has a natural talent for working with kids.”

"Johanna is AMAZING! My two boys love her - she does everything from amazing arts & crafts, to helping with homework, to getting them playing outside! She also drives them and does everything involved with after school activities: packing snacks, getting the right gear, etc."

"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."
