Hi, I’m Chloe. I offer Babysitting/Nannying for children with special needs, as well as General Babysitting/Nannying services. I bring 5+ years of experience across various roles including Registered Behavior Technician, preschool teaching, private babysitting, and infant caregiving.

Although my background shapes how I approach care, I am not currently offering clinical or therapeutic services. Special Needs Services: - Prioritizing autonomy, independence, and confidence. Assisting with daily routines using a "hands-off" model. - Therapy reinforcement and consistency. - Daily care: dressing, toileting, hygiene, mobility, and medical equipment handling. - Practice strengthening communication skills using AAC devices, when available. I am familiar with Proloquo2Go and TouchChat.

Maria $35 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I've been working with kids for six years now! I am organized, kind and resilient. I have worked with kids from 5 months old to 11 years old during this time. I'm used with the BLW method and Montessori for babies/toddles. I'll always use the positive discipline method with the kids because I believe that is the best way for them to learn about life. I value respect as well as honest and clear communication. I am an active person that loves the outdoors activities. I like doing crafts, playing games/puzzles and cooking with the kids. I believe these activities are really important for the kids development and I'm all for it! I am looking for a full time position. I hope to hear from you soon. Thank you, Maria.

"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."

"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."
