*Not available to sit for sick (contagious) children* Having been on UrbanSitter close to its inception in 2014, I have over 25 years experience in childcare. I’ve worked with infants to 15-year-olds, and earned my certificate for early childhood development with the University of Oklahoma. I have worked in a nursery, as a teacher's assistant in an after school care program, as a nanny and mother’s helper. For over four years I was contracted by a sitting agency in Oklahoma and Dallas and was chosen twice as Sitter of the Month based on requests and family feedback. I am CPR and First Aid Certified. I am attentive to routines and guidelines while also connecting to kids with silly playtime. I am also very artsy and love to create things with kids, sing and make up stories and characters. Several families ask me back multiple times, and I look forward to meeting yours!

I’m a mom first. I know how I would want someone to treat my child. I also used to be a kindergarten and first grade teacher. I love children and I love being able to impact their life in a positive manner. I really love reading and playing games with children.

“My kids really enjoyed playing games with her and she was great at managing my 3 boys .”

Hi families! I am a 28 year-old college graduate living in Plano. My mom was 1 of 20 children, so I have a lot of little cousins who I grew up around and helped care for. I have 13 years of paid babysitting experience. I've after-school nannied for two families with 8 and 5 year-old girls. I have experience with all ages of children, including: infants, toddlers, twins, multiples and special needs (ADHD and Down Syndrome). I'm comfortable changing diapers, bottle-feeding, rocking children to sleep, etc. I have a calm, patient and easy-going personality with a good sense of humor that allows me to connect well with kids. I enjoy meeting new families and would love to hear from you if I seem like a good fit!

“Megan was great with our two boys and two young dogs. She managed bedtimes, meals, crating dogs, and communicated throughout the evening. She was prompt, professional and a pleasure to work with. Highly recommended!!”

Hello! My name is Daneeta and I am an experienced care provider and turor. I come from a large family, so I have quite a bit of experience with children of all ages, as well as children with special needs. I also volunteer in my church's nursery, so I am very comfortable with babies, and have tutored children from elementary through high school in different subjects. I am a singer and actor, so being creative and animated comes easy to me. I would love the opportunity to provide safe care for your precious little ones.

“Daneeta accepted the job last minute when my daughter was mildly ill and not able to go into daycare. My 9 month old daughter took to her instantly, and Daneeta was so gentle and caring - looking for ways to keep our daughter comfortable when she didn’t feel well. Daneeta was singing to her (beautifully, I might add) and I could hear from the other room my daughter trying to sing along, which was very very sweet. Will absolutely be reaching out to Daneeta again!”
