Hello, I'm Taylor , 18 years young and currently bringing joy and learning to little ones at a daycare in Andover. I have a passion for nurturing and educating children, which makes every day rewarding. Outside of work, I'm all about exploring new recipes in the kitchen, keeping my space tidy, and making memories with my friends. Life's a balance of work, play, and everything in between!

Hi, care seekers! I'm a college degreed grandmother of 6 precious humans, and I'm a naturally caring, empathetic person. My BA is in a social services major, and I've worked both personally and professionally with adults, teens, and all ages of littles. I am patient, have that special "grandma energy," and can do everything from sing songs with your toddler to assisting your adolescent to make sense of that hard essay. As a good, health-aware cook, I can prep your ingredients for dinner (who doesn't need a sous chef?), or prepare the whole thing for the family, so you can come home to a hot meal, if that's what makes your life easier! Let me throw the laundry in the machine, load the dishwasher, iron your work shirts (does anyone do that anymore?), water the plants, get the mail, give your kiddo his snack, address your party invitations, play board games, and be there so your teenager has someone to ignore! Do you have an elder in the house? I will help your aged mom remember to take her meds, be sure she doesn't fall, play scrabble with grandpa, and prep their favorite sandwich with just the right amount of butter (that's important). I am respectful of all religions (or no religion), and will be sure to uphold your family's priorities so that your children have continuity within your home's environment. Just explain to me what your values are, and I'll consistently reflect them to your kids and elders (even if they are not my own values). I am friendly with all ethnicities. Do you have a special party coming up? If I'm available, we can work out some help with all the details to make your party run smoothly. I can prep a mean appetizer plate, set your table just so, assist with serving and clean up, and wrap those little gifts for your holiday event. Everybody needs some holiday help, right? Hit me up with what you envision, and we can lighten your load so you can have a little fun at your own event! Bonus: Sometimes I can even work on a holiday. I no longer host the Christmas, Thanksgiving, and Easter feasts (my adult kiddos do that), so if you are desperate for someone to peel the potatoes or make candy cane reindeers with your kindergartener while you wrap presents (or vice-versa), just ask me if I can make that happen. Let's collaborate to brighten up your stressful life!
With a strong foundation in service and dedication, I am a compassionate caregiver and military veteran, bringing a wealth of experience and a nurturing spirit to every role I undertake. With a Bachelor’s degree, I combine academic knowledge with practical skills honed through diverse experiences, including my time as a para-professional within the school district. In this role, I have provided support to young children and those with special needs, ensuring an inclusive and enriching environment for all. As a proud dog mom to a 14-year-old pup, I understand the importance of companionship and empathy, qualities that translate seamlessly into my caregiving approach. My professional background as a kitchen staff member at a Girl Scout camp has further developed my ability to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere, catering to the needs of children and fostering their growth through engaging activities. Additionally, my passion for gardening reflects my nurturing nature and commitment to fostering growth—both in plants and in the lives of those I care for. I am dedicated to providing high-quality care, ensuring that every individual feels valued, supported, and empowered. My unique blend of military discipline, educational experience, and a heartfelt commitment to service, I am not just a caregiver but a steadfast advocate for the well-being of those I serve.

Hello! My name is Grace and I'm a student at the University of Minnesota! I work with kids for my university job and am frequently responsible for their care. In high school I also babysat for as young as 3 years old around my community. I am a good cook, love to hang out and play games, and have animals at my apartment so I'm more than comfortable with a few furry friends :)

"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."
