I’m a dedicated first responder near Portland, Oregon. I have experience in being a certified Police Officer and a volunteer certified Firefighter while pursuing my bachelor’s degree at Chemeketa College. I’m certified in Adult/Child/Infant CPR, AED, EMR, and BLS and have a valid food handlers card. You will appreciate my calm, trustworthy, and caring nature, paired with an upbeat, outgoing personality that helps kids feel safe, engaged, and having fun! I have 6 years of experience caring for children from infancy through early adolescence, including ages 0–11 months, 1–3 years, 4–5 years, and 6–11 years. I’m comfortable supporting daily routines, preparing meals, helping with crafts, and assisting with travel or carpooling. I also offer swimming, walk and park supervision and enjoy creating a safe, fun, and structured environment for kids of all ages. In addition to my public safety background, I also provide household cleaning and organization services. Whether it’s maintaining a tidy home, assisting with laundry, disinfecting surfaces, or helping with daily household tasks, I take pride in creating a clean, comfortable environment for families. I do not smoke or use any substances. I’m reliable, punctual, and always arrive 5–10 minutes early to ensure clear communication, directions, and an easy transition for your family.

Hi there! I'm a former elementary school teacher with a degree in Education and years of experience supporting children's growth both in and out of the classroom. I've worked with kids of all ages - from infants discovering the world for the first time to confident upper-elementary students developing independence and emotional awareness. Teaching gave me a deep understanding of child development, learning styles, and the power of connection, and those same values guide the way I care for children today. As both an educator and a mom, I know how much trust it takes to invite someone into your child's world. I bring calm, consistency, and creativity to every environment I'm in. I love planning activities that are meaningful and engaging - story time, nature walks, hands-on crafts, science experiments, or just baking something fun together. My approach is centered on nurturing curiosity, confidence, and kindness in every child I meet. Families describe me as reliable, intuitive, and warm-hearted. I balance structure and play, making sure children feel safe, heard, and happy while parents can fully relax knowing their little ones are in capable hands. Whether it's school pick-ups, bedtime routines, or full creative play days, I treat every child with the same care and respect I give my own daughter. Caring for kids isn't just something I do - it's truly what I love.

“Fantastic help! Will hire again :) ”

Hi! My name is Monika. I am currently 25 years old. I am currently a Pediatric Nurse. I am CPR/AED & PALS certified. I have been working with kids since the age of 12 as I began to care for my siblings, cousins, and the children of many family friends. I have experience as a nanny taking care of infants and older children up to 13 years old. I am someone who is able to keep up with the energy and excitement young children have. I am someone who is kind, loving, patient, attentive, and is willing to be as goofy as needed in order to make the kids I care for feel comfortable and safe. I have experience in tutoring at an elementary level and middle school level in Spanish, language arts (writing & reading), science, social studies, and elementary math. A lot of my time has been spent volunteering at elementary and middle schools in helping children strengthen their academic skills. In my free time, I love cooking, painting, hiking, and hanging out with my golden-doodle Bruno. I am a native Spanish speaker but I am fluent in English. I am COVID vaccinated and boosted :) Hope to hear from you soon to get to know each other further!

“Monika was right on time and had a game available to play with my son. Very friendly and responsible. Tucked my son into bed and was flexible on the arrival home. Definitely recommend! She was wonderful!”

"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."
