Greetings!! I'm thrilled at the opportunity to introduce myself to you. My name is Mikaela. I am a loving, kind, and genuine person who values responsibility, respect, and trust. My family-oriented nature and sociable personality make it easy for me to connect with others, and I believe in living life to the fullest by exploring new places, cooking, meeting new people, and enjoying each moment. As a wife and mother of a 13 year-old son, I understand the joys and challenges of parenting. I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Multi-Media Studies/New Media from Florida Atlantic University and an MBA in Healthcare Management from Western Governors University. I am a Practice Manager at Gastro Health-Pediatrics located in Boca Raton; where I bring my extensive business background and experience in Maternal Fetal Medicine, OB/GYN, and Pediatrics to support and advocate for others. You might be wondering, "What brought her to UrbanSitter?" Great question! I believe that children are a true blessing, and I am eager to meet and support other families in any way I can. I’ve always believed it takes a village to raise a child, and I know firsthand what that entails. I take joy in getting to know each child's unique personality, likes, and dislikes, and I always ask parents for this information to create a fun and educational plan for our time together. I focus on providing personalized, one-on-one attention to each child and enjoy engaging in a variety of activities, from arts and crafts to reading, singing, dancing, yoga, and sports. I’m also more than happy to assist with cooking and other household tasks if needed, and I make sure to clean up after every activity. I look forward to connecting with you and learning more about your family's needs. Please feel free to reach out to me at any time. P.S. ***All Personalized Activities conducted includes toys, arts and crafts supplies, and other special items that your child loves are provided by me*** Sincerely, Mikaela C.

Mariana $25 per hour for 1 child

I'm passionate about nurturing young minds and creating a safe, nurturing environment where children can thrive. My patient and friendly nature, coupled with my creativity and imagination, allows me to connect with children and make learning an enjoyable experience. I strongly believe in open communication with parents and keep them updated on their child's day and any matters that arise. I adapt my caregiving style to complement the household rules set by the parents. From engaging in outdoor sports to playing board games and puzzles, I enjoy a variety of activities that cater to children's interests and promote their holistic development. With three years of experience caring for children between the ages of one and 11, and my fluency in both English and Portuguese, I'm confident in my ability to provide reliable and high-quality childcare. I have a graduate degree and reliable transportation, allowing me to cater to families' needs effectively.

Daniella $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello Families! I'm excited to have this opportunity to introduce myself. I absolutely adore working with kids because their innocence and curiosity bring out the best in me. I am searching for a job that allows me to be a trusted partner for families, offering them peace of mind and support in their parenting journey. I started working with kids 3 years ago, when I would help out my cousins with their journey as first-time mothers, I know it wasn't easy caring for a newborn child for the first time and I really started to enjoy it. I would help in any way that I could, whether it's babysitting, or helping clean around the house. I do enjoy caring for animals as well, and I am willing to assist in pet care.

I started babysitting at 12 years old. I was a nanny/housekeeper as an adult. Once I had kids, I continued to babysit off and on. I currently homeschool 2 children. I’m organized, helpful and energetic.

I’ve been a full time nanny since 2021 and have experience caring for children ranging from 3 months to 9 years old, and different family dynamics. I'd be happy to answer any questions you may have.
