Booked by 1 family in Acton, CA

I am a recent NYU graduate who studied acting and filmmaking. I've recently moved from NYC to Sunny LA! I love the outdoors, art, fitness, and finding fun new eats in the city. Growing up in a large family myself, and being the eldest girl, I've always loved taking care of children. During my time in NYC I provided childcare for my professors, as well as families in the Brooklyn area! From playing imaginative games, helping with homework, or exploring the city to find things to make them smile, I would describe myself as an experienced, playful, and kind caregiver. I also had many pets growing up, both dogs and cats, and am very comfortable caring or simply being in their presence.

"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."
