Madalena $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Maddie, I am a mother to my beautiful nine month old daughter who is my complete rock, and my world! I have worked with kids for as long as I can remember and love working with all ages. I am currently in school right now to become a elementary school teacher. I love to workout, and go on walks with my daughter, along with going on little adventures with her and my family. I am certified in CPR, and have all of my lead training hours through Colorado Peak academy. I am willing to do as much as you might need for there, and that can be as little as just doing the dishes, or cleaning the whole house! I personally love to clean so if you need to me I don’t mind at all! I am looking forward to connecting with families and creating bonds with your children🤍

"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."
