I bring over 30 years of real-life, hands-on experience supporting families, homes, children, and seniors. I am the proud mother of six children, all grown and thriving, whom I homeschooled with care, patience, and intention. Being a mom is my greatest joy, and caregiving is truly second nature to me. I’ve also successfully raised two dogs and a cat, so I understand the dynamics of busy, loving households and feel very comfortable in them. In addition to parenting, I spent many years working as a house manager, where I supported families by keeping their homes organized, running smoothly, and stress-free. I see myself as an extension of your family—someone who steps in to assist where needed, whether that’s childcare, senior care, household chores, or day-to-day support. I’m dependable, adaptable, and proactive, with a strong understanding of how homes function best when care and structure work together. I have professional experience in home health care with seniors and approach elder care with compassion, dignity, and respect. I’m comfortable assisting with daily needs, companionship, light household tasks, and creating a calm, supportive environment. I truly value caring for people at every stage of life. With children, I’m patient and attentive, and I take time to understand how each child learns and processes information so I can help bring out their best—academically, emotionally, and creatively. I enjoy crafts, sewing my own clothes, and hands-on activities, and I love introducing children to meaningful skills and creativity. I also enjoy preparing wholesome foods, including making homemade organic fruit roll-ups from scratch. I’m very comfortable around dogs and horses—my children grew up around horses—and while I’m slightly allergic to cats, I have owned one and manage it well. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, experienced, nurturing, and capable caregiver who truly loves supporting families and homes, I would be honored to work with you. For more than seven years, I’ve worked closely with senior citizens, including patients living with dementia and Alzheimer’s. This experience has taught me the importance of patience, empathy, and truly understanding each individual’s needs. I’m quick-thinking, naturally witty, and able to adjust seamlessly in challenging moments, which allows me to connect easily, de-escalate situations, and provide care with both professionalism and heart.

Hello Families! I have been a nanny and babysitter for the past seven years. My journey began as a Kid's Club attendant at an Equinox gym. From there, I built bonds with the children and their parents whom eventually hired me to babysit their children for date nights and day time hours so they can run errands. I eventually became a part-time nanny for a few families resulting in various age groups I would get to play, read, and hang out with. I have experience in newborn, infant care, toddler care. Through my experience, I have built knowledge and stay up to date with appropriate age development. I hold a degree in Recreational Tourism Management. My favorite days as a nanny are park days. My least favorite days are none. That's the best thing about this gig, children never bring about a bad day. I look forward to meeting new families and playing, crafting, reading with children of all age groups.

Booked by 5 families in Wilmington, CA

Hi there! My name is Kenia, I’m 27 years old, and I hold a bachelor’s degree in Child Development. I genuinely love working with children. Their curiosity, sense of humor, and the unexpected moments they bring make every day enjoyable and meaningful. I’ve worked at Beach Babies (a school and daycare) and at Art Zone, caring for children ranging from newborns to 10 years old. Both roles allowed me to build strong, trusting relationships with the kids and their families, and I truly loved every moment of it. I bring a calm, patient, and playful approach to caregiving. I’m also reliable, understanding, and adaptable to each child’s unique personality and needs. With close to a decade of experience, I feel confident in caring for children of any age and creating a safe, nurturing environment. I’d be honored to bring my experience and energy to your family and hope to connect with you soon! Warmly, Kenia

"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."
