I'm very patient, playful, and promise to always give my full attention when looking after your little ones. On my background: I'm born & raised LA, grew up in the SF Valley.

Hello everyone! My name is Riza. I’m 24 years old. I’m the oldest daughter and child in my family. I’m a student from Kazakhstan, which is the 9th largest country in the world. Growing up, I always helped take care of my younger sister and brother. I also looked after my nieces and nephews when I was 16–18 years old. I have 3 years of bachelor’s studies in Education/Pedagogy. During my university years in Kazakhstan, I completed a teaching internship/practicum. I taught middle school students (6th–9th grade) for two years in a row, for about 2 months each year. I’m a creative person and I love photography and traveling. I’ve traveled a lot around the USA, and I recently moved to Los Angeles. I don’t smoke or drink, and I’ve never had any bad habits. I’ll be happy to get to know everyone!

"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."
