I grew up in Thornton, Colorado and have been working with/babysitting kids since I was 12 years old (24 now). When I was younger, I trained in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for 3 years and coached little kids ages 3-12 for a year, including classes and summer camps. I have had children around me my whole life and truly enjoy the light they bring. I have a degree in psychology with minors in creative writing and business, all of which honestly come in handy when spending time and communicating with the little ones! I always have fun with them making sure to abide by the parents wants first and always try to make a connection with both the child and the parent as I believe this is incredibly important. Interacting with children has always been one of my strengths and I am excited to meet some new faces and go on new adventures!

Hi, this is Karen! I’m a caring, responsible, and energetic person who truly enjoys helping others. I have experience caring for children of different ages, seniors, and pets. I’m cheerful, patient, and organized, and I always try to create a positive and safe environment around me. When it comes to childcare, I enjoy spending time with kids through creative and educational activities. I love dancing, painting, doing crafts, and playing outdoors. I’m also comfortable helping with homework, preparing snacks, and keeping routines consistent. I believe children learn best through fun, love, and respect :) I also have experience with senior care, providing companionship and helping with non-medical tasks such as preparing some meals, organizing their space, and offering emotional support. I really enjoy listening to their stories and making sure they feel valued and comfortable. When it comes to pets, I absolutely love animals. I’m used to feeding, walking, and playing with dogs and cats, and I’m comfortable around large or small pets. I also like helping with light household services such as cleaning, organizing, doing laundry, and preparing some meals. I take pride in keeping spaces tidy and cozy. I’m very active and love hiking, dancing, and discovering new places. People describe me as spontaneous, reliable, and easy to communicate with. I’m always willing to learn new things and do my best to help families feel supported and cared for.

"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."
