Hi! I’m a caring, dependable, and energetic person who genuinely loves spending time with kids! 💛 I have an education in Child Development and experience working with children in my community and around the world, including children’s homes in India and Africa. These experiences have taught me how important it is to make every child feel safe, valued, and understood. I love getting to know each child’s personality and finding ways to make our time together fun, whether we’re playing, crafting, reading, exploring, or just being silly! 😊 My goal is for your kids to feel happy and cared for while you have peace of mind.

"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."
