Hi! My name is Julia and I'm a compassionate child care professional with over 15 years of experience. My background includes being a preschool teacher for an established hospital's child development center as well as 10+ years experience as a career nanny. I have a strong knowledge of early child development that includes implementing age-appropriate activities, supporting emotional development, and maintaining a nurturing and safe environment. I also have several years of experience babysitting infants through school-aged children, and have studied psychology as well as child development. I find working with children to be extremely rewarding, and I absolutely love the teachable moments! I can provide glowing references upon request and look forward to hearing from you soon!

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.

I am 28 years old. I have worked with children from infants through school age. Former teacher at Kindercare, and am background checked through the Department of Early Learning. I am a Certified Nursing Assistant in the state of Washington. I am also CPR certified for infants through adults. I love story time and tasks that use the children’s imaginations. I have a passion for helping children learn new things and grow. I also love taking the children to the park, zoo, etc. so they can have fun and use up their energy in a positive way. I am also a mother of two and my oldest is level 2 on the autism spectrum and has adhd so I do have lots of experience with special needs as well.
