Booked by 1 family in Indianola, WA

Hi, my name is Victoria. I’m offering child care, pet care, and household services. I love being a babysitter and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids for 6 years. My responsibilities have included walking to/from school, easy meal prep, crafts, outside time, and cleaning up. I am also available for household services and I can clean, cook, and tidy up the house. I don’t have any allergies, and I’m comfortable being around pets. I’m responsible, pontual, patient, organized, flexible! * vaccinated COVID and Flu * I’m fluent in Portuguese and English.

We have worked with Vic for many years and she is exceptional. She is reliable, always on time, promotes active play, and is always a calm and warm presence. Our family adores her. No question, would hire again.

I love children and pets. I do pet sit and babysit when needed. I am very reliable and considerate for your pets, children, house, etc. I have been watching pets since I was 16 on and off during school and babysitting my parents neighbors kids. I am getting re-certified in CPR and First Aid for all ages. If I do babysit or pet sit at your place I will make sure to not make a mess and if that happens I will definitely clean up.

"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."
