Hello families! My name is Renae. I am 24 years old. Im currently in school for business management but I also work for a community based program that provides activities for children. Ive also been a camp counselor/ group leader for summer camps/ programs. Im mostly around kids ages 5-11, My favorite activities to do with kids are playing games ( UNO, connect four, mancala), doing arts and crafts, and reading. When I'm not working I enjoy making art and spending time with friends and family.
Hello, my name is Melanie, and I am an experienced and qualified caregiver with a genuine passion for providing exceptional care. I hold a bachelor's degree in early childhood education, which has equipped me with a strong foundation in child development and effective teaching techniques. Over the past four years, I have had the privilege of working with children of various ages, ranging from 3 years to 14 years old. Throughout my diverse experiences, I have served as a dedicated caregiver in multiple roles, including a teachers assistant, summer camp counselor, program counselor, after-school specialist, and future teacher. My expertise extends beyond childcare, as I am also adept at caring for pets and providing household services. I understand the importance of maintaining a safe and nurturing environment for both children and animals, and I am committed to ensuring their well-being. One of my key strengths is my ability to create engaging and fun activities that promote learning and development. I believe that children thrive when they are actively involved and excited about what they are doing. I take pride in designing age-appropriate activities that stimulate creativity, critical thinking, and social interaction. Reliability, flexibility, and responsibility are qualities I prioritize in my caregiving role. Parents can trust that I will be punctual and dependable, ensuring a smooth experience for both the child and the family. I understand that each child is unique, and I strive to be adaptable to their individual needs and preferences. As a caregiver, my goal is to provide a nurturing and supportive environment where children feel safe, happy, and encouraged to explore their interests. I value open communication with parents, and I am always ready to discuss any concerns or share updates on the child's progress. In summary, my qualifications, experience, and passion for caregiving make me an excellent candidate for the Urbansitter app. I am confident in my ability to provide exceptional care for children, pets, and assist with household services.
I have been in education for over 10 plus years and currently work at a middle school in Brooklyn. I also manage the after-school program, hence my availability only on weekends and holidays. CPR certified every 2 years, as this is a requirement of Department of Education. Parents, nothing surprises or scares me. I am not afraid of vomit or diarrhea nor a bug if your little one brings me one as a gift. Just dropped my baby off at college, so you can say I am looking for another baby to love and care for.
