I am a grandmother of four wonderful energetic children aged 6, two 3 yr olds and a 2 yr old. I often take all four to the park, have picnics and even have wild slumber parties at grandmas house. I love children and truly enjoy playing, being creative and teaching new things. Reading to children is one of my favorite things to do, singing if they’ll let me. I am patient, kind, and nurturing as I know children need this more than anything. Being a grandma has been a true joy for me and I enjoy children and all the laughter and fun they bring.

I’m Becca — your calming, baby-whispering postpartum powerhouse. I’ve always had a soft spot for newborns — their tiny sounds, their sweetness, and the magical way they change everything in an instant. Becoming a postpartum doula felt like the most natural step in my journey as a caregiver, and I’m so honored to support families during this sacred, transformative season. With over 15 years of experience caring for children—from preschool classrooms to full-time nannying, and most recently as a unit coordinator in a busy pediatric ER—I bring both calm confidence and clinical know-how to the early days of parenthood. I’ve supported babies as young as two days and currently offer overnight and daytime care with a focus on rest, rhythm, and reassurance. My care is holistic and heart-centered. I’m here not only for newborn care, but for the whole family—from tending to the physical and emotional recovery of birthing parents, to offering guidance and support to partners and siblings adjusting to life with a new baby. Whether it’s nourishing meals, light tidying, listening without judgment, or just making space for a shower and a breath, I aim to bring peace and presence to the postpartum experience. Parenthood is powerful—and sometimes overwhelming. You deserve someone in your corner. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, endlessly baby-savvy, and always ready with a swaddle tip, a feeding log, or a warm, calming presence when it’s needed most. Let’s connect and talk about how I can support your growing family—I would be honored to be a trusted partner along your parenting journey.

I first started on sitter city in 2008. It did not take long to meet and care for the children of several families. Many of the relationships were long term so I became inactive on the site. My last family moved just before Covid took hold. I had just updated my child infant CPR and first aid as I intended to start looking again. That didn’t happen because of Covid so I’m starting again now. I did raise 6 children of my own, worked as a nanny for 10 years and have been actively babysitting for Sittercity families for 10 years. I’m looking for occasional sitting opportunities in my area. My CPR is up to date and I would love to interview with your family.

I am a recent college graduate working as a youth outdoor education leader at a local outdoor access and inclusivity-focused organization. I really enjoy working with and caring for kids. I have been babysitting for neighbors and helping with childcare since I was around 10 or 11 years old. I have been a mothers helper for babies only a couple of months old and have worked as a mentor with early high school-aged youth. Through my own high school experience I coached the youngest age group the 3-4 year old's and 5-6 year old's in youth soccer. The past couple of summers I have worked as a Farm and Nature Educator and Counselor at a nature summer camp and work as a Summer Enrichment Teacher at an afterschool/summer program. I am certified and trained in Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED through the American Red Cross. I've always loved being imaginative and creative and engaging with kids in play-based ways when working in childcare. Additionally, I really value my role in encouraging and creating an environment where kids can be curious and safely explore the world around them!
