I have 8+ years of experience in childcare and teaching ballet. I grew up in a large family and have had many childcare and teaching jobs over the past years. Working with children is something I enjoy doing on a weekly basis, as I'm a ballet instructor for a couple studios in the area! I like teaching children concepts and watching them grow in their understanding of them. I've done coursework in Early Childhood Development and would be happy to tutor and assist with online learning. I am also happy to help with Driving, Housekeeping, Laundry, etc. I'm looking for a job with hours mostly in the afternoons and evenings (after I get out of the studio) and weekends.
I’m a grandmother with over 30 years of hands-on experience caring for children of all ages. I’m patient, loving, reliable, and skilled in routines, safety, meals, and play. I’ve also supported seniors and managed household needs with care and attention.
I'm an empty-nester with over 40 years experience of being a mother and grand mother. I am a gardener and dog-lover with my own experience teaching children educational horticulture while also having a very active Weimerainer named Phineas!
Hi, my name is Divine. I am a 23-year-old college student at the University of Connecticut, majoring in Business Administration and Marketing. I am bilingual and speak both French and English, which has helped me connect easily with children and families from diverse backgrounds. I grew up in a large family, where I regularly cared for my younger siblings and cousins. This experience taught me patience, responsibility, and the importance of creating a safe, loving, and supportive environment for children. In addition, I worked at an elementary school for four months as part of a Lighthouse Program, where I supported and supervised children in a structured school setting. This experience strengthened my ability to work with kids in both educational and recreational environments. I am comfortable with cooking, cleaning, and assisting with household tasks. I also have a valid driver’s license and can help with transportation when needed. I enjoy engaging children in creative activities such as painting, as well as simple and fun hairstyling. I truly enjoy working with children and take pride in creating a positive and caring environment for them.😊

"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."
