talecqua $35 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Talecqua! I have several years of experience working closely with children and families, and through both my career and personal life, I’ve developed a deep understanding of how important it is to create a safe, caring, and supportive environment for kids to grow and thrive. While I don’t have children of my own, I’ve spent a lot of time helping care for my siblings, nieces, and nephews. These experiences have given me valuable hands-on skills in babysitting, from keeping children engaged and entertained to making sure their daily needs are met with patience and attention. I’ve learned how important it is to be reliable, attentive, and nurturing, as well as how much trust families place in someone caring for their children. I’m also comfortable around pets, including both cats and dogs. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to help with light household tasks, daily routines, and running small errands if needed. I’m friendly, dependable, and flexible, and I enjoy creating a safe, positive, and fun environment for children while helping parents feel at ease. My goal is always to make sure everything runs smoothly and that families feel supported. In addition, I’m a professional hairstylist and can also assist with basic hairstyling needs for children if desired, offering an extra level of care and convenience for families.

"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."
