Alaya $15 per hour for 1 child

Due to my experiences I’ve become very fast paced but also have grown a lot of patience. I’m good at compromising to make sure everyone is comfortable and can multitask so that things will always be completed when asked for. I’m great with all ages of kids. I can cook, clean, help with homework and even can even help with transportation when needed and don’t mind stepping out of my way for anything. I’m also great with pets.

I take care of dogs and when dogs need to be taken care of I can do that. Also dogs are nice and cool. I need to make 150 character minimum so I’m just going to add another random thing.

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.
