I am a caring, responsible, and reliable caregiver with experience working with infants and toddlers. I truly enjoy creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children feel loved, supported, and encouraged to learn and grow. I have experience with daily childcare routines, including feeding, diaper changes, meal preparation, nap schedules, playtime, and age-appropriate developmental activities. I love planning fun and educational activities such as reading, arts and crafts, sensory play, music, outdoor adventures, and creative games that encourage learning through play. Families describe me as patient, attentive, trustworthy, organized, and proactive. I believe open communication is essential, and I always strive to support each family's routines, values, and parenting style. My most recent position was caring for a baby for over a year, from 9 months old to 21 months old. I have also cared for newborns, 3-month-old infants, and 1-year-olds, which has given me a strong understanding of the different stages of infant development and the unique needs of each age. In addition, I have experience caring for children ages 4, 7, and 9, as well as managing the needs of multiple children at once. I look forward to meeting your family!
Hello, my name is Jamie, and I am currently pursuing my Bachelor’s degree in Child and Adolescent Development. During my academic school year, I am apart of different on campus organizations but love to work and support youth as well. For the past 3 summers, I have been caregiving for children ages 1–12. My ultimate priority is to create a fun, safe, and supportive environment for all aged children. Though I recently joined the UrbansSitter community, I have been a child caregiver for different families. In my most recent babysitting job, I babysat a toddler, that I have been caregiving for two summers. I have experience building that long-term relationship with both the child and family. I would also love to incorporate the material and skills I’ve learned in my education, into my caregiving experience. I joined UrbanSitter to gain more hands on experience and continue growing as a caregiver. Outside of work and school, I love playing sports, going hiking, and spending time with my younger brothers. I would describe myself as a patient, dependable, energetic, and caring, person. My ultimate goals is for families to feel comfortable, safe, and supported when trusting me with their children.
“Jamie was awesome. Highly recommend her. She was on time (early), and very communicative. She picked up our daughter from school and drove her to her soccer practice and back home.”
