I have over five years of experience working with children through both babysitting and classroom settings. I started as a babysitter, caring for children of various ages, which helped me develop strong skills in creating safe, engaging, and nurturing environments. In addition, I worked in an elementary school where I assisted in a two-year-old classroom. There, I supported daily activities, helped with learning routines, and encouraged social and emotional development.

Hi! My name is Diana, I currently work as an infant teacher at a preschool. Have been working here for 5 years, I love working with kids. I also have 2 fur babies that I love! I love going to spend time with them and going on walks to the beach. I also babysit on the weekends for families from the school whenever I can(:
“As a teacher at our daycare, Ms. Diana did a great job of caring for our baby boy. She led the arts and crafts activities and we always looked forward to our son bringing home a new creative art piece. She is communicative, responsive, and reliable. We look forward to having Diana babysit!”

"UrbanSitter is my go-to for quality sitters! I can book weeks ahead of time or easily find a same-day sitter when in a bind. I even hired a part-time nanny during a daycare transition. Customer service is helpful and babysitters respond in a timely manner."
