Hi there! I'm Amal, and I absolutely love spending time with kids. There's something truly rewarding about helping them learn, grow, and have fun in a safe, caring environment. Whether it's playing games, assisting with homework, or simply being a good companion, I strive to create a positive, supportive atmosphere where kids feel comfortable and valued. I have 25 years of babysitting experience, having worked with children of various ages from infants to pre-teens. Over the years, I’ve gained valuable skills in managing routines, keeping kids entertained, and handling any unexpected situations that may arise. I am also experienced in meal preparation, light housekeeping, and ensuring kids stick to their schedules. I also have a background in child development, so I’m able to adapt my approach to suit each child’s needs, ensuring they feel supported and engaged. I’m a responsible, patient, and reliable sitter who believes in providing both fun and structure. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your family to discuss how I can help. I’m allergic to dogs but happy to work with family with cats. I have been a caretaker for my own parents and I am comfortable with senior care. Can drive to appointments,shopping and cook for them. Looking forward to hearing from you!

Hello! My name is Patrice and I’m passionate about fostering children’s growth and development. With extensive experience in early childhood education, I’m proud to run a daycare in Vallejo that operates Monday through Friday from 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM. I am CPR and First Aid certified, and my knowledge of brain development and early education allows me to create engaging, age-appropriate activities that support each child’s individual developmental journey—whether they’re 3 months or 8 years old. In the near future I will begin pursuing a degree in cognitive science to further expand my expertise. I am organized, positive, and have a team player approach with all my families. I prioritize open communication with parents, as I believe collaboration is key to providing the best care and environment for every child. I look forward to making a positive impact on your child’s day and supporting their growth every step of the way!

"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."
