Hello I’m Amber, a mom of 2, and I have a lot of experience working with kids 6wks-teens as a former director/owner/ educator of a licensed daycare home for over 7 years. I chose a different career path after covid but I really love kids in my core. Over the past 27yrs, I have also worked at recreation centers, 24-hr daycares, non-profits for daycare accreditation, Head Start & ECI (Early Childhood Intervention) I understand different parenting styles, living arrangements, so there's no judgement, just quality care, and the need to go with the flow of life. I'm a basketball mom as well so I figured I give this a shot too lol. I have some free time to play outside of my current part-time position and would love to help you parents out.
“Enjoyed our wedding anniversary night out stress free. After reading over Amber’s reviews and getting to meet her in person we were sold. Her attention to detail is impeccable as she mentioned to us what helped calm our baby down (which was spot on without giving her forewarning) and gave us even more peace of mind that our infant was in good hands. We look forward to being a returning family for her services!”

Hi! My name is Marcela, and I have nearly 3 years of childcare experience as an Au Pair and nanny in the United States. I have cared for children of different ages, helping with school drop-offs and pick-ups, homework, meal preparation, after-school activities, and creating a safe, fun, and positive environment. I am responsible, patient, organized, and caring. I enjoy encouraging children to be active, creative, and confident. I also have experience caring for pets, including dogs and cats, and I am comfortable assisting with light household tasks. I have a valid driver’s license and experience safely driving children to school, sports practices, camps, and other activities. I am bilingual in Spanish and English, which allows me to communicate effectively with families from diverse backgrounds and even help children learn a second language if desired. Families describe me as trustworthy, dependable, and attentive. My goal is to provide a safe, nurturing, and supportive environment where children can learn, grow, and feel happy every day.
I am a 24 year old college graduate currently working full-time at a Title/Law Firm. Previously, I worked as a tutor at The Confidence Group in Dallas, TX, from February 2023 to May 2024, where I supported 3rd–8th grade students in Dallas ISD through personalized lesson plans, including specialized assistance for students with special needs. From June 2017 to May 2020, I served as a Youth Golf Instructor at The First Tee in El Paso, TX, teaching children golf skills and incorporating the organization’s Core Values, such as Integrity, Sportsmanship, Courtesy, Respect, etc. Eventually I was given the responsibility of helping to plan and lead sessions for different age groups within the program, but mainly focusing on the 3-5 year old and 7-8 year old age groups. In high school, I was in a STEM program that specialized in health care/medical fields which allowed me to work hospital rotations where I gained experience in basic levels of caregiving and crisis management. Additionally, I volunteered at the Ronald McDonald House Charities, providing support to families and participating in social service efforts. For the past three years, I have babysat for one family, assisting their child with schoolwork, and for the past four years, I have provided pet sitting services—mainly for dogs—for multiple families. I am also certified in CPR and First Aid.

"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."
