As a nurturing and experienced childcare provider with six years of experience, my passion lies in nurturing the growth and development of children. I am patient, calm, and possess a creative imagination that fuels engaging activities. My friendly and approachable nature allows me to build strong relationships with the children in my care. I prioritize open communication with parents, ensuring they receive regular updates about their child's day and any concerns that arise. I adapt to their preferred communication method, whether it's verbal communication at pickup, text messages, or phone calls. When it comes to household rules, I am very comfortable enforcing them while maintaining a positive and nurturing environment. My goal is to help children understand the importance of rules and boundaries while fostering a sense of respect and responsibility.

Hi, I am energetic, creative, mindful, and I enjoy helping others. With 17yrs of professional childcare experience, including running a large after school program at an elementary school via Hayward Public Library, I've been able to help bring siblings together, keep hundreds of Bay Area families reassured of their childcare choice, and teach kids several skills -- including chess, soccer, musical theater, dance, and Spanish.

You will always get periodical updates if you choose, the kids will always have my full attention, and you can count on an energetic, experienced, detail-oriented, and committed childcare provider.

Hello! I am a warm, attentive and enthusiastic person who loves taking care of children and people of all ages. I have 10 years of experience working with children, first as a Montessori preschool teacher assistant, then as a day care worker for infants and toddlers and also as a substitute teacher. As a substitute teacher I had a preference for special education and I enjoy working with special needs children of all ages. I have training in Montessori Early Childhood Education and I have really seen the benefits of the Montessori Method, especially in the early years. I love being outside and exploring in nature. I have a love for learning and I love to help children to discover the joy of learning and nurture their creativity. Thank you for considering me as a caregiver!
“Joanna has been babysitting my son since he was two; he’s now four. I love the energy she brings—she’s incredibly musical and creative. She often brings her guitar and sings with a beautiful voice that my son adores. It lifts not only his spirits but mine as well. She’s a blessing to any household that hires 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."
Milena L., mom of two
"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."
