Catrena $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! My name is Catrena. I'm a warm, dependable, and energetic caregiver with real-world experience working in a licensed daycare setting. I've cared for children of all ages and understand how important it is to provide a safe, loving, and fun environment where kids can thrive. Whether it's playtime, mealtime, learning activities, or nap schedules, I've done it all with patience and a smile! In addition to childcare, I'm also available for light to full house cleaning (because I know how helpful an extra pair of hands can be!). I also love animals and am more than happy to offer pet care services ( I have 4 cats and a dog myself) feeding, walks, cuddles, and all the love your furry family members need while you're away. I'm someone you can count on to show up on time, communicate well, and treat your home and loved ones with care and respect. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, hardworking, and great with kids, pets, and homes. I'd love to connect!

"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."
