Hello I'm Camilla, I am someone who deeply cares for infants and prioritize safety and well being, especially for first time parents. I help parents prepare safe, baby ready homes and recommend essential products and developmental toys. I am very conscious about maintaining proper hygiene before caring for infants and always wash my hands thoroughly. I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident in their baby’s safety. so I take every precaution to ensure a clean and nurturing environment. With a background in nursing and music, my nurturing embraces children as early as infancy through singing and imaginative play. It is incredibly rewarding to see delicate expressions of comfort when babies recognize my songs, then hear toddlers singing my songs to becoming fully engaged when I read to them. In my spare time, I channel my creativity into writing stories, composing songs that support developmental milestones, and creating educational videos for children. Music is just one of my supportive tools to soothe and stimulate infants as well as help toddlers and young children navigate challenges like understanding boundaries, learning new skills, and facing moments of frustration. I focus on building safety awareness, self esteem, and independence whether through songs that make clean up time fun or original music that encourages them not to give up when something feels hard. By including children’s individual interests, it allows me to build a stronger connection and relationship and spark curiosity. I am confident in providing homework support and engaging children in creative arts activities. I bring a strong work ethic and can be counted on to be both reliable and dedicated. I studied Music at UCLA and bring both creativity and energy to my work with children of all ages through music. I have a true passion for teaching. After earning my Associate’s degree, I began working toward my Bachelor’s degree, building on a background that includes Music Therapy and Occupational Therapy. CPR certified and first aid certified. I stay up to date on flu shots and vaccinations. As someone who enjoys healthy eating, I’ve learned that even with fussy eaters, healthy habits can still be encouraged by turning new foods into something fun to try. I am available for both full time and part time caregiving roles, including as a mother’s helper and date nights. I am comfortable with pets and have energy to keep up with growing little ones!

Hello! My name is Charlotte and I am a skilled childcare worker with 2 years of full time childcare experience through working 7 summers as a youth sailing instructor. There I taught children ages 5-7 and 8-18 sailing skills by creating an adventurous, educational, and safe learning environment. I have cared for children of all backgrounds, levels of emotional regulation as well as students on the spectrum and have enjoyed my time with them all and have learned much about how to best provide them with education and care. I’ve spent the last 2 summers there as the lead instructor which put me in full responsibility of all the students and staff including any medical paperwork and treatment needed, creating and teaching engaging lesson plans and games, monitoring student interactions and mental health and well as making sure all land and water activities were conducted safely. With this I have gained a great love of working with children and fostering a creative environment that allows children to express themselves freely while enjoying our time together. With this full time care experience I also have some experience of babysitting infants to teens during my middle and high school years and now. With the combination of both that and my teaching experience I think I will be a great fit as your next caregiver!

Hello, Sittercity Parents! I am a childcare professional and enrichment arts educator with several years of experience in providing childcare and early childhood arts education. I have enjoyed providing childcare for UrbanSitter families for over 10 years. I am also an experienced pet sitter. I relocated to Los Angeles, CA near Larchmont Village in the summer of 2020 after residing in Chicago for nearly 20 years, where I taught music and movement arts classes during the school year. I have experience working with families who use gentle parenting and a blend of Waldorf, Reggio Emilia, and Montessori approaches in their parenting style. My ECE and responsive caregiving approach is rooted in providing children with a safe, nurturing and developmentally appropriate space to wonder and discover through guided and child-led purposeful play. I also have a host of back pocket open-ended activities that can be readily adapted to align with your child's needs and interests. Please feel free to reach out to me to discuss how I may be able to suit your childcare needs. I look forward to having the opportunity to share my love and passion for early childcare and arts education with you and your family. :) Certifications/Education: B.A. in Theater, Columbia College Chicago; 12 Early Childhood Education CR; Pediatric First Aid CPR/AED, American Heart Association; 30 Day Substitute Teaching Permit. *Up to date on Covid 19 and flu vaccinations. *I have a 3 hour babysitting minimum for nearby families (4 hour minimum for service areas over 2 miles away), and an 8 hour max for one-time and short term recurring jobs. *Cash payment is ok, but Venmo, Zelle, CashApp or credit card payments via Urbansitter.com are preferred. Cancellation Policy: My cancellation policy is case by case, as I want to be fair and sensitive to whatever seems reasonable under each cancellation circumstance. If I am able to find another job to replace the canceled job, I don't expect any compensation. Because I do turn down other work and also rely on the anticipated income earned from UrbanSitter jobs booked more than a week in advance, I typically request payment for 50% of the total hours for the cancelled booking (unless I am able to find another job to replace the cancelled job).
