I am warm, dependable, organized, and proactive, and I strive to create a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children can learn, explore, and thrive. I enjoy planning age-appropriate activities, encouraging independence, spending time outdoors, and supporting each child’s unique developmental journey. For full-time roles, I thrive in positions where I can confidently manage a child’s day, maintain consistent routines, and create engaging, developmentally appropriate experiences. I especially enjoy long-term partnerships built on trust, communication, and collaboration.

"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."
