Hello! I have been babysitting and working with children for most of my life, and am at a place where I'm ready to start working for new families again! I have a Masters in Public Health and am finishing up my job running food access programs with the YMCA, where I have been working for the last five years, and am about to go back to school for a nursing degree! I previously have worked as a preschool teacher, before-and after-school childcare provider, and nanny for families with children from infants to teens. For years had families I regularly did date night sitting for, and I looking to get back into that. I am certified in CPR and First Aid, and have taught both gymnastics and swim lessons to all ages. I miss working with kids, and am looking forward to getting back into it! I also have experience pet sitting for both dogs and cats (and love both!), and am happy to provide pet care as well.
I am a diverse caregiver. I have 8 years of experience with children from ages newborn to 8 years of age as close relations and as well as experience with 10-15 years of age with short term care. I have a son of my own who is now 8 months and I look forward to having more children. I enjoy cooking and living/ working in a clean space , I was also a RA as a full time job. I am a warm positive person with a unique perspective in challenging situations. I enjoy fun activities such art projects, book reading , and math equations. A future goal of mine would be to own a business that can cater to family’s in need.
I’m a responsible and caring caregiver with years of experience working in a licensed daycare. I’m CPR/First Aid trained and passionate about creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment where children can learn, grow, and feel comfortable.

Hi there! I am the mom of 2 high school kids. I have a Masters in Secondary Education, and during the school year, I run my own math tutoring business, from elementary to high school students. I have 8 years experience as an art and science teacher. I am working part-time as a nanny for infants and small children. I have a lot of experience with infants and toddlers. I am an active and attentive caregiver: I sing to, read to, play with, teach, and comfort the infants/kids I nanny. I participated with my own kids in coop preschool. I still incorporate what I learned in preschool into my tutoring and nanny work: encouraging positive behavior, calmly setting limits, asking children questions, and really listening to children. I enjoy being around kids. I am a swimmer, outdoor enthusiast (hiking, biking and bird watching), and enjoy spending time with my family outdoors.
“Greta was an absolute lifesaver for our family. After working with multiple sitters and nannies, I can confidently say she was by far the best. She consistently went above and beyond, especially in caring for our daughter, who has special requirements. Greta and our daughter quickly became best friends—she was always excited when Greta came by. Greta supported us tremendously as new parents, offering thoughtful tips and advice when asked, and truly became part of our family. Even during our daughter’s “stranger danger” phase, Greta was someone she trusted and adored when others couldn’t calm her. We will absolutely continue to use Greta in the future and highly recommend her.”

"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."
