Hello, I am Nancy. I am currently student at montgomery college. I’ve always loved being around kids—it’s something that comes naturally to me. With many nephews and nieces, I’ve spent years helping take care of them, and it’s given me so much joy and experience. Whether it’s playing games, telling stories, or just making them laugh, I love creating a space where kids feel happy and cared for. What I enjoy most is how unique every child is. They each have their own personality, and it’s so rewarding to connect with them and see them grow. Taking care of kids has taught me to be patient, creative, and understanding, which are qualities I bring to every family I work with. For me, childcare isn’t just a responsibility—it’s something I’m passionate about and genuinely enjoy doing.
I have worked at an elementary school taking care of 25 kids. Being creative and finding activities for kids to do is very important. Painting, drawing, any games that they like. It’s also very important to lead Children to make sure rules are followed so they are safe at all times. Through getting to know them and being a good listener, over time they will feel more comfortable.
I've been working with children since I was 16, I'm 19 years old. At 16 I did small babysitting jobs and after school was a regular nanny to 2 kids, (3 and 4). I worked at a local daycare when I was 17 to 18. I helped looked after 11-16 children daily from the ages of newborns to 9 year olds. Now I'm an assistant teacher at a learning center/daycare, I take care of infants(newborn to 1 year olds) to 4 year olds. Usually assist take care of 16-23 two year olds, 6-13 three year olds and 9-15 four year olds daily. Children love me and I love them! I'm patient, love interacting and playing with children. I'm a clean person (will do light cleaning), I can food prep, make bottles, change diapers, assist with feeding etc. Can help with small learning skills, managing behavior and potty training. Good with nighttime routines and can read bedtime stories. I also have CPR, first aid and AED certifications.
Experienced caregiver with a warm personality, I watch dogs and kids of all ages. Raised in the South and the oldest of 10 grandkids, I’m dependable, patient, and accommodating.
I'm a dedicated cat-sitter with experience following diligent instructions, taking care of pets with various needs (medical, social, etc) and showering them with love when their families need someone to look after 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."
