Over the past couple of years I have babysat a 8 year old girl helping with date nights, after school activity transportation, and overnights. I also have babysat a 15 month old since he was 3 months old helping with bottle feeding, solids, crawling, walking, nap time, and social outings. My childcare style is safe, nurturing, play-based, and responsive. I enjoy child-led learning, outdoor adventures, creative arts and crafts, reading, imaginative play, board games, and supporting kids with homework. I can help with school pickups, activity drop-offs, and meal prep. I have experience with dog walking, feeding, and house/pet sitting.

"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."
