Hello There, I trust you and your family are well! You might notice my last review is from 2020, that’s simply because I’ve been fortunate to work long-term with a few wonderful families since then. My relationships often last for years, and many of the families I’ve supported have truly become like family to me. I hold a Master’s of Arts (M.A.) in School Counseling, & M.Ed in Education Policy and Leadership. I have more than fourteen years of private childcare experience ranging from newborn to 15 years of age. I support children's emotional and social development, encouraging understanding of others and positive self-concepts. My goal has always been to provide children with the necessary care. I am dedicated to creating an atmosphere that is fun,stimulating, encouraging, safe and adaptive to each child's individual needs. Should you have any questions, feel free to message me.
“A miracle worker. Absolutely amazing. Wish she lived in SF.”
Making a positive impact on children's lives is what I strive for! As a former Program Facilitator and Youth Development Specialist, I have three years of experience supporting families by providing reliable care. I am currently a receptionist at a Pediatrics office. I am patient, calm, friendly, and approachable. I am comfortable enforcing household rules and caring for children of all ages. I keep parents informed through verbal communication at pickup, regular updates via text or phone call, and by following your preferred communication method. I enjoy board games, puzzles, and even some technology-based games. I am also willing to help with carpooling, light housekeeping, and travel. I speak both English and Spanish. I hope to bring my enthusiasm and experience to your family!

"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."
