I think being a kid at heart myself, makes it easy for me to get along with kids and build relationships with them. I really enjoy being in the mind of little ones, they are all so unique and fun personality's! I've enjoyed my time hanging out with kids in my own family, and ones who became like family. Kids and parents alike. I don't mind getting on the floor and playing along, or going outside and finding something fun to do. Or even just caring for the extra little ones and making sure they are fed and happy. I think i'm pretty good at entertaining and caring for many ages!

"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."
