$25 per hour for 1 child

I bring over 10 years of hands-on childcare experience, having babysat for multiple families and cared for children of various ages. Currently, I work as a substitute teacher for preschool and elementary school in Beacon Hill, which has strengthened my ability to manage groups, support early learning, and respond calmly to different needs and personalities. I’m patient, attentive, and reliable, with a strong focus on creating a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment. In addition to childcare, I have experience pet-sitting both dogs and cats, so I’m comfortable in households with animals and happy to help care for them as well. I’m also willing to assist with light household tasks to keep things running smoothly. My goal is to support families by being dependable, caring, and proactive, while ensuring children feel secure, happy, and encouraged to learn and play.

Hi My name is Angeline! I would love to offer my help and look after your little ones. I'm a mom of 3: 2 daughters (8&7) and a son (5 yrs old). Naturally that position helps you gain a lot of patience and become the ultimate multitasker! My Kiddos are in school from 7:30am until afterschool ends at 6pm. Their dad and I alternate days with pick ups ( Tuesday & Thursdays) I come from a family of 9, being the second oldest I have a variety of experience with children from newborn up to teen years. I've worked as a Junior camp counselor at two different Boys and Girls club locations. Briefly was a swim Instructor for special needs children (specifically autism and ADHD) and children of different backgrounds aged 0-12 years. I have also been on Urbansitter since ~2018 and have enjoyed meeting so many different families :) I am currently enrolled in a BSN program However I do keep my calendar frequently updated and still plan to utilize my services on urbansitter! In regard to weekends I am available solely on Saturdays after 11am with some availability for Sunday’s . But always have some flexibility just message me! Happy to provide help with light housekeeping , running errands , and of course homework help! I do have a valid drivers license , a clean driving record and my own insured vehicle. I am Vaccinated & Boosted for Covid since 7/5/2021 :) Also I am BLS CPR & First Aid Certified!

Angeline was available last-minute when our 2 year old was home sick, and she did a fantastic job with him. He had so much fun, can't wait to have her back!

I've always had a passion for nurturing the growth and development of children. With eight years of childcare experience, I've had the privilege of supporting families and providing a reliable childcare option for them. My patient, calm, and friendly nature allows me to connect with children of all ages. I ensure open lines of communication with parents, either verbally at pick-up or through their preferred method, to discuss their child's day or any concerns. I'm very comfortable enforcing household rules while fostering a positive and nurturing environment. My favorite moments are spent engaging children in outdoor sports, playing educational games, or having fun with board games and puzzles. I'm comfortable caring for up to four children, ranging from infants to preteens, and am available to provide care during the day, evenings, and weekends. I have a car and am comfortable with pets.

she was wonderful. kind and patient.

"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."
