Katie $50 per hour for 1 child

I am a professional childcare provider with more than 20 years of experience working with children from newborns through school age in both private-home and early childhood education settings. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Behavioral Health Science with an Emphasis in Childhood & Adolescence Disorders and am currently pursuing a Master of Science in Leadership. My experience includes newborn and infant care, toddlers and preschoolers, school-age children, multiples, and children with autism, ADHD, PDA, and other developmental needs. I am also a trained Newborn Care Specialist, Infant & Toddler Specialist, 200-hour yoga instructor, and am certified in pediatric CPR and First Aid. I believe children thrive when they feel safe, respected, and understood. My caregiving style is warm, active, developmentally informed, and responsive to each child’s individual personality and needs. I enjoy getting children out into the community, exploring nature, reading, creative play, movement, and creating experiences that support their independence and development. I am available for babysitting, backup care, temporary care, school closures, nanny coverage, and occasional longer-term needs throughout the Bay Area. I especially enjoy developing ongoing relationships with families so children have a familiar, trusted caregiver when their regular care isn’t available.

"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."
