Amanda $15 per hour for 1 child

Hi-My name is Amanda. I’m a 35 year old stay at home mom with 4 children ages 8, 6, 4 and 19 months. I’m offering child care temporary or long term. Besides taking care of my own children full time, I have over 10 years of experience in childcare. I’ve worked in daycares, as a nanny and as a PCA for a child with autism. I adore working with kids! My background also includes many years in theatre. I use my acting and music skills to help create a fun and imaginative environment for kids. We live on a hobby farm on 3 acres. We own chickens, ducks, a sweet old dog, loving cat and a hedgehog! Plenty of room to run and play! As well as 4 out going and sweet kiddos always up for new playmates. I’d love to help out any busy parents this summer and perhaps further on looking for care.

I have been babysitting, volunteering for after school programs, and giving moms a break during services at my church's nursery since middle school, and I'm excited to use my experience to be exactly the sitter you're looking for! I also have professional experience working with all ages of infant and toddler in a daycare and home setting, in addition to experience taking care of children three and older on a longer term basis, including overnight and getting up in the morning for school. I can also help with light housekeeping, laundry, and anything in the kitchen. Proof of current infant/child/adult CPR and First Aid certificate available upon request.

Maria 2 reviews
$23 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 4 families in Dayton, MN

Hii my name is Maria, I've been working with children for about two years, primarily caring for toddlers through older kids. My experience has included everything from engaging little ones in play and helping with routines, to planning fun activities for older children. Growing up with a younger sibling helped me get a sense of responsibility and patience early on, and it's a big part of what sparked my interest in childcare. I love getting creative with kids whether it's making crafts, doing simple science experiments, or putting together themed activity days. I'm also happy to take children out for a change of scenery, whether that's to a local park, museum, or an after-school activity. I'm comfortable driving and enjoy helping kids explore the world around them in fun and safe ways. I am also starting college in the fall.

“Maria was fantastic with our 2.5 year old twins. She was energetic, kind, and the girls loved her. We will absolutely be having her back!!!”

I currently have my driver's permit and will be taking my license test within the next few weeks. Once I get my license, I'll also have my own car, making it even easier to assist you.

"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."

"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)."
