Hi! My name is Ingrid Johanna, children call me Jojo. I live in SF and am bilingual, I speak English and Spanish. I have five years of experience as a preschool teacher with toddlers and big kids, and others 5 years as a nanny working with babies, toddlers and children. I love to go to the park, playgrounds, zoo, etc. with parents approval. I’m a sweet, kind, patient and loving nanny. Provide emotional support for the children is very important, for them to feel loved, secure and worthy. I also have got numerous fun developmental activities that I like implementing with kids. I like to be part of children’s intellectual and physical growth, and also be there for them like an older sister.

Hi, I’m Lolis!  I am open to all work, from babysitting to full-time nanny positions. While I am new to Urbansitter, I am not new to caregiving! I have over seven years of experience. I love children and care for them as if they were my own. I have immense respect for the fact that you are entrusting me with your child, and I do not take it for granted. For the past few years my work has included full time nannying for a child 6 months to 2.5 years old, as well as some part time nannyshare work. In that role, I managed all aspects of care - feeding, sleep, play, and socialization. When I am caring for your child, I tailor the experience to the family. I am very easily reachable, and will send you updates and pictures if you want. Feel free to contact me at any time to see how things are going! Have a high-energy toddler? I am happy to match their energy and take them to the park to run around and play. Is your child in the mood to stay indoors? I’d love to stay in and play with them. Does your baby have trouble sleeping in their crib? I will let them sleep in my arms to make sure that they get the rest they need. Nothing brings me more joy than watching children learn new things. I love being with them every step of the way and seeing them grow and achieve things on their own. I enjoy supporting their learning, and celebrating every accomplishment.

“Lolis is a fantastic nanny and babysitter. She worked for us for two years while our son was 6 months to 2.5 years old. She still babysits fir us frequently, as our son loves her and we want to maintain the relationship. She is punctual, communicative, and professional. For the children, she is both loving and energetic. Any family would benefit from hiring her.”

"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."
