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.
Hi! My name is Kelly and I am a college senior with years of experience caring for children of all ages, from almost infants and toddlers to school-aged kids. I’ve helped raise my niece and nephews and started helping with childcare back home at a young age, so creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment became my day to day at some point. I love helping kids learn new things, whether it’s homework, numbers, new words, or just being curious about the world. I’m patient, responsible, and always focused on keeping them safe and happy. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to help around the house with light cleaning, house sitting, organizing, and running errands. I also have experience caring for pets, especially cats and dogs, and I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, you name it. I’m here to support your family however I can with care that’s thoughtful and reliable.
“Kelly is such a sweet, kind, and honest person. My kids adored her company. Kelly made us feel very comfortable. I highly recommend her. ”
Hi, my name is Yullie, and I am a professional in the social studies field. I am offering child care, senior care, and pet sitting. I was a babysitter for 10 months in my country when I was at the University. I love to play with kids and use art as a tool for learning. I have been a caretaker of my grandparents and I am comfortable with senior care, I can drive to appointments, cook, and have a nice conversation. I love cats and dogs, and I’ll be happy to care for pets, all my life I have been a pet mom (dogs and cats), and I'm able to go for a walk, play, and feed your furry baby.
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.
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.
