Hello! I am Maddy and I am a student at the University of South Florida. I am offering child-care and dog-care services (open to other pets, just no previous experience). I love working with children, and I have experience with all ages, and I have worked the most with ages 4-9. I have experience driving children, making simple meals, tutoring, arts and crafts, and gymnastics coaching! I worked at Little Feet Children’s Shoes and North Shore Gymnastics Association in high school and have babysat for my younger cousins. I am comfortable with dogs and have watched dogs for family and friends. I look forward to working with you!
Babysitters on UrbanSitter are background checked every year, with every profile individually reviewed by our Trust and Safety team.

"She was so flexible and came last minute to help out. The house was really neat when I got home and both kids were asleep. Two thumbs up!"

"Thrisa was amazing! Came over last minute and took amazing care of our 11 month old - including bedtime - she's coming back tomorrow :)"
