Naomi $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Naomi, and I have extensive experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to school-aged kids. I'm the oldest of four siblings, so childcare has always been a natural part of my life. I've also worked at a children's swim school, where I taught kids ages 3-12 in small groups and assisted with parent-and-baby classes for infants and toddlers. I'm patient, attentive, and genuinely love creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for kids. I'm comfortable with feeding, diaper changes, playtime, bedtime routines, and helping children feel calm and supported. I treat every child as if they were my own and always prioritize safety and communication with parents.

"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."
