Hello, My name is Jennifer. I have over 10+ years experience with kids of all ages. I started babysitting at the young age of 12 years old. I've always enjoyed spending time or teaching new things to young children. I was a tutor for 2 years and taught ages 5-13 years old. At age 15 I was involved with a nonprofit organization based on young kids and teenagers who were involved in alcohol or drugs. I've always found it fascinating to be able to make a difference in our community and help kids in need. While in college, I invested my weekends working as a Disney Princess for many Birthday Parties. I would dress up as all types of characters and perform for kids, teenagers and adults. When I wasn't in school, I worked part-time as a Swim Instructor. I instructed all ages from infants, toddlers, kids and teenagers. I was also involved as a Birthday Party coordinator during the weekends. I would host events and pool parties while supervising all staff and lifeguards. I'm also very active and was involved in sports during my High School years. I played Volleyball & Softball. I was Varsity Caption for my Cross Country Team & also involved in Dance. I have a very strong passion for sports and enjoy going on hikes on my spare time. I will be the dearest friend and most caring sitter that your child will adore. I have no problem meeting with you for an interview or using Facetime to discuss any of your concerns. I'm looking forward to meeting you and your wonderful family :)

“She is warm, patient, and genuinely caring, and it’s clear how much she loves working with children. Our child absolutely adores her and is always happy, comfortable, and engaged in her care, which gives us so much peace of mind as 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."
