Booked by 1 family in La Crescenta, CA

Hi! I'm Anna and I love children! I love children so much because they are the most brilliant, hilarious, honest, authentic human beings. It is an honor to be entrusted with supporting them as they learn how to navigate this complex world. I taught pre-school at Play Mountain Place ( a Play School in LA since 1949) for four years. After which, I worked as a Nanny for 15 years. I worked with one family with two daughters ( ages 2 and 5 at start date) for four years, followed by a family with one daughter ( age 1 at start date) for six years. I most recent worked with a family with 5 year old triplets, for 5 years ( I met them on this site!) I have 12 units of Early Childhood Education course work. I also have a Yoga Teacher Certification with a specialty in yoga with children and Pre-Natal Yoga. My childcare philosophy is relationship driven. I believe in forging a strong connection with mutual respect and using Non-Violent Communication to resolve any conflicts. I love child led activities. I believe in play and natural consequences as learning tools. I use limits and balancing individual needs with group/family needs rather than discipline. I am imaginative, yet practical. Free and fair. I would love to meet you and your family!

Hi there! I’m a reliable and nurturing caregiver with over 10 years of experience caring for children, seniors, and pets. I’m patient, organized, and truly enjoy helping others feel comfortable and cared for. Families describe me as dependable, warm, and detail-oriented—I always go above and beyond to make sure everyone’s needs are met. Whether it’s keeping your pets happy, supporting an active household, or assisting an elderly loved one, I treat every client like family.

“Jannet has been absolutely wonderful with our family. She is dependable, caring, and truly attentive to my child’s needs. From the first time she babysat for us, she made everything feel effortless—she communicated clearly, arrived on time, and immediately built a great connection with my child. She follows instructions perfectly, keeps the home organized, and always checks in with updates so we feel at ease while we’re away. Jannet is calm, patient, and incredibly responsible. I trust her completely, and I’m grateful to have found someone so reliable. I highly recommend her to any family looking for a trustworthy and professional sitter.”

"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."
