Hello parents, my name is Julissa, best known as JUJU. makes it fun for the kiddos to say. I'm a mother of 3 kids, with 1 large Saint Bernard dog and 2 Maine coon cats, a snake and 1 tarantula. we love animals. I'm a self taught baker with my own little side business that I have on IG where Ive hosted a few pop up events selling cakes, desserts and pastries for fun with my kids and currently working on setting up an affordable first time tiny bakers class where I get to teach kids how to layer stack and frost cakes using baking tools, as well as cake decorating. As for my experience, when I became a first time mom I went to college and took child development to help guide and prepare me for motherhood. I started working with a child care company called [removed], with this company I've worked with 3 families, caring for all age groups. Caring for children with disabilities. Learning and growing over the years. Venturing out into senior care becoming a CERTIFIED NURSE ASSISTANT gaining experience in facilities, private homes and hospitals, I have found that my passion career wise lies with caring for others. I've worked with plenty of families and individuals from different ethnicities, backgrounds and cultures and I had the opportunity to learn so much. Things that's I've been able to implement in my home and with my children.

James $22 per hour for 1 child

I love working with people in general, but especially with Kids! I used to work with children on the spectrum, and I experienced any and all kinds of behaviours. I have done caregiving before with kids by serving them food, cleaning, helping homework, and play! I love working with pets too and I like to clean the house. But most importantly, I love helping out to wherever I most needed.

"Johanna is AMAZING! My two boys love her - she does everything from amazing arts & crafts, to helping with homework, to getting them playing outside! She also drives them and does everything involved with after school activities: packing snacks, getting the right gear, etc."

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."
