Janelle $27 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Janelle. I’m outgoing, caring, and truly love working with children. During the school year, I work with children with special needs, which has taught me patience, compassion, and the importance of creating a safe and supportive environment where every child can thrive. I enjoy fitness, staying active, reading, being outdoors, and bringing that same energy into childcare through crafts, outdoor play, games, reading, and fun learning activities. I’m dependable, organized, and happy to help with homework, meal and snack preparation, and keeping children’s spaces tidy. My goal is to make every child feel safe, encouraged, and cared for while giving parents peace of mind knowing their little ones are in good hands. I would love the opportunity to become a trusted part of your family’s daily routine!

$38 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Martinez, CA

Hello! I am a warm, responsible, and respectful 35-year-old mother of two with over 10 years of professional childcare experience. I specialize in working with children from newborn babies up to 8 years old, and I have extensive experience successfully managing nanny shares with two different families. As a parent myself, I prioritize open, proactive communication with parents regarding their babies' developments, daily routines, or any concerns. My ultimate goal is to help your children hit their milestones and develop excellent habits both inside and outside the home. I love keeping kids active and curious by taking them out on nature walks, visiting different parks to build social skills, and going on fun, educational outings to the zoo or museums. I speak both English and Spanish fluently, am a non-smoker, and am completely comfortable with pets. I am fully CPR certified, have all my vaccines up to date, and have excellent references available upon request. I look forward to supporting your family!

"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."
