Iva $28 per hour for 1 child

I am 63 years old and originally from Sofia, Bulgaria. My name is Iva. In Bulgaria I have graduated from Technical University,I have pedagogy courses. Now I live in Berkeley with my daughter and have worked as a custodian of both children and elderly for the past 15 years.Both my own granddaughter and the little boy I have looked after for the past 18 months have been 2mos-2yr old during the time of my care. I took care of two children together once a week. They will no longer need my help as the girl goes to pre-school, so I'm looking for another job / family I can work for. I respect all styles of parental care and focus on providing lots of love and affection and engaging children in games, imaginary games, books, and so on. I love to play them outdoors and use every opportunity to communicate with others. I am a good chef and prepare fresh, healthy dishes for the child every day. It can also help with light housework. I love kids and they love me. As a carer, I am responsible for my work, creating a safe environment for the children and making them happy. Also, I am active, intuitive, empathetic and very organized. Apart from English, which I speak at a comfortable level, I am fluent in Italian, Bulgarian and know intermediate level Russian. I would love to find a new family to help and have a relatively flexible schedule (prefer Mon-Fri, but could also consider weekend days as an alternative). I am open to taking on multiple kids in a nanny-share setting. I would also consider offering care for specific days.

"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."
