Hi! I’ve been caring for kids, pets, and helping households in different ways for many years. I started babysitting in high school and continued on and off through college, and also worked as a camp counselor in high school with kids going into kindergarten. I’m additionally a proud aunt to two boys (Ian is 3, and Ellis was just born on May 2!) and have spent a lot of time caring for and babysitting them over the years. I’m naturally very creative, patient, attentive, and emotionally aware, and I care a lot about making sure kids feel safe, listened to, respected, and genuinely seen. I’m also reliable, responsible, and organized, so parents can feel comfortable knowing things will actually be handled well and consistently. I enjoy engaging with kids in a real way rather than just supervising them passively, whether that means creative activities, outdoor time, games, helping with routines, or simply being a calm and supportive presence. Animals have also been a huge part of my life. I grew up with dogs, worked at a dog groomer in high school, fostered dogs through the ASPCA and Furever Home Rescue in New Jersey, and adopted my own rescue dog through Big Dog Rescue Project in 2020. I currently work professionally through Rover and have experience with walks, drop-ins, overnight care, routines, medication support, and caring for pets with different personalities, needs, and energy levels. I take pet care very seriously and understand how important trust, communication, safety, and consistency are when someone is caring for a beloved animal. Beyond caregiving, I’m also highly organized and happy to help with general household support such as tidying, organizing, errands, light cleaning, meal prep, pet-related cleanup, receiving deliveries, watering plants, or helping keep things running smoothly overall. I’m adaptable, detail-oriented, calm under pressure, and genuinely enjoy helping create a more peaceful and supported environment for people. I’m new to Urban Sitter and haven’t collected reviews here yet, but you can find reviews on my Bambino babysitter profile, or check out my LinkedIn page. Happy to provide both to you when we connect.

"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."
