Shannon $22 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Shannon. I am originally from Sacramento. I have lived in the Bay Area for 8 years. I’m a caring, dependable, and compassionate caregiver who truly enjoys helping others feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I have hands-on childcare experience from caring for my two nieces from infancy through kindergarten, giving me a strong understanding of young children’s routines, needs, personalities, and developmental milestones. I also have five years of experience providing care for older adults, which has strengthened my patience, attentiveness, and ability to provide compassionate support. Whether caring for a child or an older adult, I believe in creating a warm and nurturing environment where each person feels respected, valued, and comfortable being themselves. I’m responsible, trustworthy, patient, and attentive to the little things that help families feel confident in their caregiver. My goal is to provide dependable care while making the people I care for feel safe, supported, and genuinely cared about.

As a childcare provider with over a decade of experience, I am passionate about nurturing children's growth and development. My previous babysitting roles have solidified my love of caring for children and inspired me to make a positive impact on their lives. I believe in fostering a safe and nurturing environment where children can learn, play, and grow. With my patient and calm demeanor, I am able to create a harmonious atmosphere for children to thrive. I pride myself on open and honest communication with parents. I provide regular updates on their child's day and promptly address any concerns that may arise. I am also comfortable enforcing household rules to ensure a structured and safe environment for the children in my care. My love for children extends to a variety of fun activities. I enjoy engaging them in outdoor sports, board games, and educational games that stimulate their minds. In my free time you'll find me either on a hike, or country line and swing dancing!

"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."

"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."
