Booked by 1 family in Cotati, CA

I’m a doula, Montessori, Waldorf- inspired educator & somatic movement therapist specializing in alignment. My natural experience includes mothering of three school age children including twins. I’ve supported parents in positive parenting and child led learning. My Waldorf inspired experience comes from being avid volunteer at my children’s school as the librarian and supporting the art programs. I hold a MA in Adapted Physical Education and Minor in child development. In addition to helping families with newborns I have been a house/ estate manager overseeing construction, interior design, feng shui, organization and baby proofing households.

“Punctual, resourceful, and helpful and engaged my children very well. I was very pleased with Kimberly's assistance and would not hesitate to have her over again.”

I’m originally from Venezuela and have been living in the U.S. for 22 years, raising two teenage boys of my own. Over the past 3 years, I’ve worked with two wonderful families and currently care for children on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, fluent in both English and Spanish, and love supporting kids’ language development through play and everyday routines. I create a warm, structured environment where children feel safe, seen, and encouraged to grow. I’m flexible, dependable, and always try to meet each family’s unique needs so their little ones can thrive.

"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."
