I am a Senior at Shenandoah University, where I play lacrosse and study Psychology, hoping to become a NICU/ pediatric nurse or a speech-language pathologist. I love kids and enjoy being active and being outside as well as cooking and baking. I have been both a nanny and an occasional babysitter for about 5 years. I also have dog sat as well as cat sat. I am also experienced in senior care, as I cared for my grandmother and did 40 hours of clinicals in a senior living center.

I’m available for the Labor Day long weekend. I’m also pre-scheduling weekend days, nights, and overnights. From newborns to teens, I can provide focused, worry-free care so you can enjoy your time out. I provide transportation to sports practice, games, friends' homes, and extracurricular activities. I’m an accomplished cook who can cook according to your family's dietary requirements. I have: College degree My own transportation Current, excellent references Current clearances and background checks from: -FBI Criminal Background History -FBI Fingerprinting -DOD Army Clearance Clean driving record No drinking No smoking I love doing creative, age-appropriate activities with children. Reading, tummy time, music, and more for infants. The list of activities grows as the children grow.

I got stuck in DC because of flight cancellations and ending up with my 3 year old daughter and prep meeting with clients for an important next day meeting. Mary Beth arrived at the hotel promptly (in advance) and with only a request that afternoon. My daughter loved her. Indeed, she was able to do things with Patina that are hard for me -- get her to draw, tell stories, get her PJs on, and get into bed on time. Terrific.

"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."
