Hi! My name is Jacquelyn, whichever you prefer! I am offering child care, pet care, and household services. I love babysitting and have volunteered at several youth programs as well as at my grandmother’s daycare as it ran. I have the most experience at babysitting children ages 5-10, but have also babysat and taken care of children as young as a year old. I also can do meal prep, clean, and run errands as a household assistant- I have a license as well as my own car. I’m happy to work with families with cats and/or dogs, although I prefer working with animals that have been potty trained as well as trained/used to being around people. I love doing on dog and cat walks!

Hello, I'm a single mom who has raised 2 sons that now have families of their own. I have 3 grandchildren, and it's what pushed me to make a career move after 15 years at a sales job that I was unhappy in. I started watching my grandson every Saturday when he was just 6 weeks, and it was such a joy that I decided to take the plunge and market myself as a Nanny. I have worked for families with infants & toddlers, starting at 6 weeks. I thoroughly love what I do and have excellent references. I am open to adventures outside the home, as well as transportation to & from school or other activities. I strongly believe in the benefits of reading & music. I am also a huge nature lover, and try to be outside any chance I get, trail walking, or go to a nearby park. Inside crafts and reading can be fun if the weather doesn't permit, and building forts or dancing to music always lifts the spirits! Music is life! I completed my certification in the "Child Care Aware" program which is offered thru the military. It involves a 6 week in depth course focusing on beyond the basics CPR & first aide for infants and toddlers. After completing the online portion there was a hands-On class to show what you had learned. I have several great references I've posted, and any of them would be happy to speak with you. My ideal job would be full-time and permanent, but I'm open to partime that has the potential to grow towards full time. I'm open to performing a variety of different duties in order to make life a little less stressful for you, and I also understand that the safety and development of your child is priority. I have a dependable vehicle that can accommodate child's car seats, and I have a clean driving record as well as state and federal background check I can share. I'm hoping to get the opportunity to speak further with you to see if you'd feel like be a good fit with your family thank you for taking the time and reading this.

I have lifelong, hands-on experience caring for children and elderly family members. From a young age, I helped raise multiple siblings, managing daily routines such as changing, feeding, bathing, school preparation, bedtime routines, and providing consistent supervision and emotional support. I also assisted with creative activities, crafts, and companionship to encourage development and comfort. In addition, I supported the care of my grandparents, helping with personal care, household tasks, and companionship. One of my siblings is autistic, giving me experience with patience, adaptability, and understanding individualized needs. These experiences have made me reliable, nurturing, and highly attentive to the physical and emotional well-being of those in my care.

"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."
