Hi! My name is Alma , I have extensive experience caring for children ranging from newborns to seventeen years. My first babysitting jobs was at the age of fifteen, then I’ve raised five kids of my own. When all my children were old enough, I took care of a family who had a three month old child when I first started working for them, they had two other children while I was taking care of their eldest child. I took care of their newborn children until the oldest sibling was seventeen. I started as a nanny ,however, the job turned into a family assistant/ nanny as I ran the house hold and helped with families personal matters.

“Alma was very patient and attentive in caring for our six month old.”

Hi! I’m a mom of four with many years of experience caring for children of all ages, from newborns to teens. I’ve worked in both private and public schools and have spent the last 15 years as a full‑time nanny. Even with all that experience, I still approach every child with curiosity, patience, and a sense of fun. Families describe me as calm, steady, and very dependable. I love creating days that feel peaceful, engaging, and full of little adventures — reading together, exploring parks, doing simple crafts, listening to music, or just noticing the small things kids love to point out. I love answering their questions about the world around them. I believe in consistency and open communication, and I am happiest when I can blend into a family’s rhythm rather than change it. Outside of childcare, I train and compete with my dogs and enjoy being around all kinds of animals. I'm happy to help with pet care. I’d love to support a family who values kindness, reliability, and a warm, steady presence in their home. --Leslie CPR/FA certified, TrustLineRegistered, Reliable Fully Insured Vehicle Numerous Exemplary References

"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."
