Hi! My name is Andrea, and I have worked with kids for a little over 6 years now. I started babysitting kids in my family and realized that I loved being a positive change in a child's life. I truly found a passion for caring for them, playing and interacting with them, making their meals, and assisting them with school assignments. Since 2021, I've been consistently working as a part-time nanny for different families, and as of 2022, I've been an after-school program teacher for kindergartners all the way to fifth graders. I love interacting with kids of all different ages and making their days brighter as much as they make mine. I am also aware of the different schedules that I get handed from different families and am very well with carefully follow parental instructions regarding schedules, chores, discipline, and free time. I'm looking forward to meeting new families and to growing great connections.

“Andrea was amazing and sweet. Helped with house stuff and was great with my 3 month old. Would hire her again! ”

"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."
