Cami $26 per hour for 1 child

I grew up 1 of 4 with my sister being diagnosed with autism exposing me very early on with the needs of nuerdiverse people and the comlassion and empathy needed to support them! I worked with kiddos of all ages for over 10 years starting with teaching swim lessons starting at age 16 and casual babysitting for friends and family to now working with kiddos with nuerodifferences and providing ABA therapy. I believe children are our future and they should feel supported, understood and safe! I love seeing the kiddos I work with grow and learn and become amazing little humans! I love going on hikes and walks with my dog, you will likely find me at the dog beach or in the garden during my free time. I love to create and am currently working with ceramics for my small business!

"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."
