“Kay is amazing with our 9 month old boy and 4 year old girl. She is knowledgeable about everything baby related including baby led weaning, sleep training and developmental milestones. We trust her wholeheartedly with our kids. She is always on the floor with our baby helping him with his development, reading him books, singing to him, etc. She is always on the go, walking him to the park and proactively organizing play dates with other babies his age. She is very respectful of our home, keeping play and kitchen areas tidy. We highly recommend Kay and think any family would be lucky to have her care for their kids.”

** I WILL BE UNAVAILABLE UNTIL MID/END OF AUGUST** Hello! My name is Monique, and I was a stay-at-home mom of two (now grown) children. After my kids grew up, and I thought about going to work, I couldn't think of anything I'd enjoy more (or am better at) than caring for children! I am nurturing, loving, patient, fun, silly, physically fit, experienced, and professional. - Adult & pediatric CPR and First Aid certified (American Red Cross) -Background checked through the California Trustline Registry and through the company Urban Sitter uses. I have lots of experience entertaining children with vastly different temperaments and energy levels. I love children of all ages- including the ones that are old enough to think they're smarter than you! I am quite skilled with babies, too. I love being silly and kids like me - seriously, they really do! I'll be down on the floor, in the grass, shooting hoops, whatever it takes, to interact with and engage your child. (Obviously, older children may not need/want that kind of attention.) You will not find me sitting on the couch watching TV while your child is playing. If your child needs help with school work, I love teaching (I home schooled one child for nine years, 4th-12th grade). Anything educational for infants up through high school is right up my alley! (I'm college educated, have a Masters degree from NYU, and have professional tutoring experience.) I will have no trouble keeping up with your kids. I'm am currently a competitive athlete and am super fit! I'm also a good swimmer and comfortable with kids in the water. My SUV seats seven, I can assemble nutritious meals, and I love dogs (I'm fine with other animals, too) I am super responsible, completely reliable, and I'm punctual! Thank you for your interest in me :) **BOOKINGS ON FRIDAYS AND SATURDAYS: 24-hour cancellation policy, $60 charge, which is not intended as a penalty, but a small amount of the loss I incur from missing out on filling a premium spot.

"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."
