Hello there! My name is Fernanda, and I'm delighted to meet you. I'm 32 years young and originally from Brazil. I've had the joy of calling the US home for the past 8 years. During this time, I've had the pleasure of working as a full-time nanny for 3 years, and since then, I've been babysitting occasionally while pursuing my studies and exploring other professional opportunities. I must say, caring for children brings me immense joy as I truly cherish their company. In Brazil, I'm lucky to have two adorable nieces, aged 9 and 3, who mean the world to me. Whenever I'm back home, I spend every moment possible with them. They hold a special place in my heart. I understand how important your little one is to you, and I want to assure you that I'll care for them as if they were my own family. Your trust means everything to me.

For the summer, my rates have significantly dropped! Will be going back to normal rates on August 15th! Hello!!! My name is Leah, I am a 23-year-old social work/early childhood education student. I am a childcare associate teacher for Bright Horizons. I have been in this field for about nine years now. I’m all about child safety and development. I have completed my 40 DCF hours and have been focusing on the Children’s Development Associate. I have experience with newborns to high school, from childcare to tutoring. I am CPR/AED/First Aid certified. I like bring activities like painting, building, reading, coloring, or even crocheting, dependent on the age and interests. CANCELLATIONS: If you need to cancel, no problem! Just out of common curiosity, I ask for 50% of the time booked for cancellations within the 24-hour window. If the cancellation occurs on the day of the booking, I request 75% of the time booked. MINIMUM BOOKING: I have a 4-hour minimum for all shifts. For bookings under 4 hours, I charge a flat rate (travel included). For anything 4 hours or more, it is my standard hourly rates.

Greetings!! I'm thrilled at the opportunity to introduce myself to you. My name is Mikaela. I am a loving, kind, and genuine person who values responsibility, respect, and trust. My family-oriented nature and sociable personality make it easy for me to connect with others, and I believe in living life to the fullest by exploring new places, cooking, meeting new people, and enjoying each moment. As a wife and mother of a 13 year-old son, I understand the joys and challenges of parenting. I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Multi-Media Studies/New Media from Florida Atlantic University and an MBA in Healthcare Management from Western Governors University. I am a Practice Manager at Gastro Health-Pediatrics located in Boca Raton; where I bring my extensive business background and experience in Maternal Fetal Medicine, OB/GYN, and Pediatrics to support and advocate for others. You might be wondering, "What brought her to UrbanSitter?" Great question! I believe that children are a true blessing, and I am eager to meet and support other families in any way I can. I’ve always believed it takes a village to raise a child, and I know firsthand what that entails. I take joy in getting to know each child's unique personality, likes, and dislikes, and I always ask parents for this information to create a fun and educational plan for our time together. I focus on providing personalized, one-on-one attention to each child and enjoy engaging in a variety of activities, from arts and crafts to reading, singing, dancing, yoga, and sports. I’m also more than happy to assist with cooking and other household tasks if needed, and I make sure to clean up after every activity. I look forward to connecting with you and learning more about your family's needs. Please feel free to reach out to me at any time. Sincerely, Mikaela C.

Hello, my name is Jamaica! I am 33 years old and I have 10 years experience working as a nanny. I also have experience working as a 2nd Grade ELA Paraprofessional Interventionist, Registered Behavior Technician, and was previously a Delta Flight Attendant. Currently I am a full-time psychology student. I have had the pleasure of working with infants, toddlers, and the middle school students that live next door. When I'm with the kids I love baking and making home made pizzas, finishing creative art projects, reading books, and enjoying the weather when it's warm outside! I am able to perform CPR on infants, children, and adults if necessary and am skilled in handling basic emergency situations.
