I have over 5 years of experience with caring for children of all ages whether new borns or teens. It started with taking care of family members being a first- born daughter in my big family and expanding to neighbors and friends. With a degree in business management and training in psychology, I bring patience, understanding, and the ability to engage children of all ages in age-appropriate activities. My experience as a certified HCA caregiver, including a year of live-in care, has further developed my ability to ensure safety and wellbeing. I follow parents' guidelines for discipline and respect each family’s preferences. Additionally, I can assist with light housework, keeping tasks within the home. I prioritize clear communication with parents to provide the best care possible for their children. Can’t wait to meet future families 😊

Hi parents! My name is Shirley, I’m 24 years old and currently working as a Registered Nurse in D.C! I babysat all throughout nursing school and hope to continue to occasionally do so. When it comes to experience I have cared for infants as young as 1 month old to middle school aged children. I have also cared for multiple kids at one time including multiple infants and toddlers at a time. In high school I volunteered at a recreation center for 5 months working with 4-5th graders in an after school program where I helped with homework and setting up activities. I have taken some child development classes and am aware of the appropriate milestones, activities and communication needed for kids of different age groups. I speak fluent Spanish and am also willing to teach your kids as well if that is something you would be interested in! I strive to always provide a positive and memorable caring experience for you and your children and would be more than happy to answer any other questions or concerns you may have for me! *CPR/BLS certified* *All bookings with me must be made through urbansitter due to safety concerns*
