Hi, I’m Stefani and I would love to meet your family soon! 😊 I’m a responsible and patient caregiver with experience taking care of children. I currently take care of two-year-old twins and have been with them since they were 8 months old! I also did volunteer work in orphanages and hospitals — it was a special experience for me. I’m a loving, respectful, and kind person, and I like to bring a calm and happy environment.

"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."
