My name is Debbie. I have 7+ years working at an elementary school assisting kids with anything from injuries, helping them during meal times, planning after school activities. My personal experience comes from being a mother of 7 kids and grandmother of 7. I enjoy spending time with kids and giving them the attention they need. I love being able to find different ways to keep kids busy and learning at the same time.
I have three years of substitute teaching from Kindergarten through 12th grade. I am also more than happy to assist children and adolescents through homework help.

"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."
Milena L., mom of two
"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."
Heather B., mom of two
