Hi! My name is Melissa Vivas I’m looking for a babysitting position. I love to find something more long-term and consistent. I’ve been babysitting since high school and have experience with kids from newborns to 10 years old. I’m very responsible, caring, and great with routines whether it’s naps, meals, or playtime, I adapt to what works best for each family. I’ve also worked as a coach, which has helped me build strong leadership and communication skills. I’m happy to help with light housekeeping, laundry, and meal prep as well. I really take pride in being reliable and someone families can depend on.

“Interview went great! I’m looking forward to scheduling a babysitting evening. ”

"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."
