College student. Loves the outdoors and spending time with family. Experience in supervising infants - children. Enjoy learning and watching the overall growth of children.
I've always had a passion for helping children develop and grow. With over 25 years of experience, I have the skills and knowledge to provide a safe and nurturing environment for your child from new born, toddler and preschoolers. I'm extremely patient, and friendly. I know how to communicate effectively with parents about their child's day. I follow the parents' lead in enforcing household rules and am comfortable caring for one child or two children at a time. I'm a big kid at heart. I'm not afraid being silly with kids. I enjoy playing all sorts of games with children, both indoors and outdoors. Also love to have my own story time, music dancing and art class with a little one !!! In addition to my Early Childhood Development coursework, I have First Aid and CPR training, and am TrustLine certified. I also speak Chinese and English. As a caregiver, I'm committed to fostering a positive and enriching experience for both children and their families.
“We have been fortunate to have Kelly help raise our daughters (3 years and 10 months old) for the past 2.5 years. During that time she has been a wonderful part of our family. Our daughters adore Kelly. She brings a fun, warm energy with enthusiasm daily. She reads and sings with our girls throughout the day in both English and Chinese. Every day, she takes our daughter outside on a walk or visit to the library. She is also great at mealtimes getting our kids to eat full meals. With our older daughter she would help with art projects. She is attentive and gentle with our 10 month old. She shows genuine affection and care for our girls and they clearly love her. Kelly is reliable - she shows up on time (typically early) ALWAYS and comes in ready to care for our daughters right away. We’ve needed her help for 10 hours each day, and she remains attentive to our kids all day. Kelly is conscientious - she always changes the baby’s diaper before handing her off to us. And she is dedicated - she worked overtime hours when we needed extra help when my wife went into labor with our second. We especially appreciate Kelly understands the importance of the big variables to solve for with young kids - full sleep and good meals - and she communicates regularly about their naps and appetite. Altogether, we’ve had a wonderful experience with Kelly. We would happily and readily recommend Kelly to another family.”
Hello!! My name is Mariel and I am pursuing a degree in Marketing. I am offering my services as a nanny. I have been a nanny for over 8 years and it has taught me so much in so many aspects. I have taken care of kids between the ages of 8 months old to 11 years old. I really enjoy spending time outdoors and doing different activities with kids. My responsibilities have been different with different families, depending on the age of the child, but my basics have been doing the kids’ laundry, cleaning the kids’ dishes, and putting them in the dishwasher. I have driven/walked to kids’ activities, and so much more. Something that I have heard from the families is that they perceive me as a bubbly person. If you want to know more about my experience and me, don’t hesitate to reach out!! Hope to connect with you soon. Ps: I can give good references.

"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."
Michelle R., mom of two
"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."
Milena L., mom of two
"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."
