Theresa $32 per hour for 1 child

Hi I’m Theresa. I am 34 years old. I am a nanny, sitter, and mother’s helper. I have over 15 years of experience in newborn care all the way up to teenagers. I am a mother to four wonderful daughters so I have personal experience due to raising my own children. I have always enjoyed caring for children. It truly brings me so much joy. I handle all aspects of care such as bathing, potty training, meal prep, driving to and from activities. I am kind, gentle, warm, and engaging. I stick to routines and stay consistent with the schedule. I consider myself long term as I have worked for families that have lasted over 5 years. My typical schedule can be anywhere from 8:30/9:00am to 5/5:30pm daily. I can do school pickup and drop off in needed. I also provide date night and overnight care and can occasionally provide care during the weekends. Some things I enjoy doing with children under my care are picnics at the park, play dates, reading, playgrounds, library, games, and art with the children. I truly have so much to offer. References available upon request. Thank you.

"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."
