Hi Urbansitter Parents;
My name is Lareesha, and I am an experienced, dependable, and nurturing childcare professional with over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for children of all ages. Since 2001, I have worked extensively with infants, toddlers, school-aged children, and adolescents, developing a deep understanding of each developmental stage and the unique needs that come with them.
I bring a compassionate and patient approach to my work, with particular sensitivity and experience supporting children with developmental delays and special needs. My background includes employment in daycare settings, childcare agencies, special needs programs, and as a school bus monitor, giving me a well-rounded and professional foundation in child supervision, safety, and engagement.
I believe in creating a warm, structured, and stimulating environment where children feel safe, valued, and encouraged to grow. I enjoy planning enriching activities such as educational outings, playdates, reading, creative play, drawing, and imaginative learning, all tailored to each child’s interests and abilities.
I am college educated, CPR/AED certified, and known for my reliability, strong communication skills, and genuine love for children. Childcare is not just my profession—it is my passion. I bring a big heart, unwavering dedication, and a calm, trustworthy presence into every family I work with.
I would be honored to support your family and provide exceptional care for your children. I look forward to the opportunity to connect with you.
Warm Regards;
Lareesha
