Arielle $19 per hour for 1 child

I've been working with children since my first job as a lifeguard when I was 16. I have most experience teaching swimming to children from infancy (parent assisted) through school-aged kids. I've taught at a public and private pool. I also have 2 years experience working as a private home tutor for a 3 year old child with special needs, where I was trained daily & weekly to meet their needs and adjust play/learning techniques to build their language and communication skills. I am recent experience as a teacher for infants at a daycare/preschool center where i was for just under 2 years. This job required me to create and implement a monthly lesson plan involving speech, art and motor development activities, serving meals, changing the children regularly, and just plain old having fun. I would be delighted to talk more in depth about what kind of care you are looking for. When it comes to pet sitting, I think of myself as an ideal candidate! I'm a huge animal lover and have cared for cats and dogs throughout my life. I have plenty experience taking care of cats and dogs and find myself very comfortable in households that have one or the other (or even better, both!) Please feel free to reach out should you have any questions!

I have completed early childhood classes 1 and 2, I learned about child development and milestones in children ages 0 to preschool years. I assisted and observed children in several classrooms, these classrooms included: infants, preschool, school age children. I learned how to make my own lessons plans, I am self experience. I have experience working with multiple children at a time and twins, I have experience as a night nanny/mother's helper/working with special needs children. References upon request I work with an agency but I am looking for a position with them or independently. Thank you

Yesenia cared for our son from 14 to 19 months, and she was a wonderful nanny — caring, loving, honest, and trustworthy. She helped him explore his interests and took real pleasure in every part of his daily routine. She was a good communicator and always willing to lend a helping hand - especially at times when we needed it the most! We’re so grateful to have had her in our lives. We’re relocating to the West Coast, or we would have happily continued working with her. We recommend her without hesitation.

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

Kamilah W., mom of one

photo of quoted parent Eric

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."
