I am a former preschool teacher and a current nanny with a lot of experience working with young children and all the requirements(CPR and First Aid, TRUSTLINE). I have a degree in Social and Behavioral Sciences. My educational background as preschool teacher is in Infant/Toddler Development which helps me understand how children grow and what to expect at what age. Plus, I am native French speaking (but fluent in English) if you are looking to give your child a bi-lingual education. I also have a car and a clean driving record. I live in Oakland. And last but certainly not least, I absolutely adore children, they keep me young... at heart! That's about all about me. I am looking forward to hearing from you.

"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."

"Caitlin has been such a lifesaver for our family. We hired Caitlin to help with the after school routine. The kids took to her instantly. She does it all - school pick ups, dinners, baths, lunch making, clean up, etc. She has really helped make a busy time so much easier for us."
