Olevia $27 per hour for 1 child

Hi prospective families! My name is Olevia, and I’ve been a nanny for nearly five years. I have experience with children ranging from infancy to high school, though most of my background is with infants and toddlers. I graduated from the University of Arizona with my Bachelor of Science in Public Health and have recently been accepted into graduate school, where I will be pursuing my Master of Public Health in Health Policy. I am currently a nanny for a sweet 21-month-old boy, whom I’ve been with since he was 10 months old. This is the third family I’ve had the pleasure of working with through UrbanSitter. I’m now looking to pick up additional babysitting hours as I prepare to begin graduate school and continue supporting myself through my education. I’m originally from Oakland and grew up throughout the Bay Area. I began working in childcare during college, nannying and tutoring through local agencies. During summers, I worked as a camp counselor at my former elementary and middle school, averaging 35 hours a week. In addition to my professional experience, I’ve also helped my sister care for her now 4-month-old daughter since birth while her husband is deployed in the Air Force. I grew up playing competitive sports, primarily basketball, and I value staying active. I enjoy getting kids outside, going on walks, and planning age-appropriate activities that keep them engaged. I also love cooking and am happy to help with meal prep for children and families. I pride myself on being reliable, patient, and attentive, and I aim to create a safe, nurturing, and fun environment for every child I care for. I look forward to connecting with your family!

"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."

"Caitlin has been such a lifesaver for our family. We hired Caitlin to help with the after school routine. The kids took to her instantly. She does it all - school pick ups, dinners, baths, lunch making, clean up, etc. She has really helped make a busy time so much easier for us."
