Hi I’m Lisa! I haven’t had a lot of child care experience, but I am responsible, nurturing, and intuitive with kids. I’m a crafty person and would love to engage kids with art and crafts if it permits! I also love animals. I enjoy hikes so I can easily take care of dogs. I have two cats of my own so I am also great with cats. Cleaning, laundry, cooking, and other household tasks are not a problem. Please feel free to ask me any questions.

"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."
