$25 per hour for 1 child

Qualified teacher with experience in foundation phase. I have worked with young children during my teaching practice and also when I had a tutoring program offering help with homework to all age groups in the foundation phase. I have experience with newborn, infants, toddlers,preschoolers and school age. I love kids and working with them. I was coaching athletics,soccer, tennis, and cricket for the past three years, while I was studying. I believe that working with children for me is a calling and not just passion. I love sports and anything to do with fitness, even went to England to represent my country 5 years ago. I would appreciate working with your child and believe that my presence will bring a smile to their young face.

“My daughter loves her. She has done such a phenomenal job and is a very well rounded person. Great with children, it is evident when around kids that it is her passion.”

"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."
