Booked by 1 family in Redwood City, CA

Hello! My name is Brisa. I’m a caring, patient, and dependable childcare provider with years of hands-on experience working with children of different ages. I specialize in working with children with special needs, particularly children with autism. I have experience supporting children ages 3 to 5, helping them develop communication, social, and daily living skills while using positive behavior strategies. I also have personal experience caring for my younger brother, which sparked my passion for working with children. I’ve been babysitting since I was 12 years old, caring for my brother and other children over the years. In addition, I’ll soon be starting a part-time position as an afterschool teacher, where I’ll continue creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment for children to learn and grow. I enjoy keeping children engaged through arts and crafts, reading, outdoor play, educational activities, games, and creative learning experiences.

"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."

"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."
