I am a retired school administrative assistant. Over many years, I have worked with children of all ages in the school system and caring for them in my home childcare business. I keep the children busy with hands-on learning, singing, dancing, age-appropriate books, DVD's and videos along with arts and crafts. I have also worked many years as a care-giver/CNA in private homes and in nursing home facilities. I am First Aid/CPR certified for infants, children and adults. Also, being a former residential cleaning business owner, I have many years of experience in cleaning vacant and occupied properties and doing trash-outs.

Booked by 2 families in Gallaway, TN
Hey ! I’m Sunshine and I am 19 years old. I currently work at an aftercare/preschool center, but I have been babysitting for years now. I love working with kids and typically work better with older age groups! I am also open to pet sitting, dogs or cats, and house sitting! I have done pet sitting and house sitting off and on for the past couple years as well :) I also did first aid and CPR training classes a couple years ago! I wanted to add to be more clear with my schedule; I am open any weekend, but I am only available past 6pm on weekdays.
“I booked with Sunshine for drop-in pet sitter services while I was out of town. She was very friendly, courteous and easy to work with! She was absolutely wonderful with my pets - a dog and cats - and took great care of them. I would highly recommend Sunshine and will book with her again!”

"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."
