Hi! My name is Samiya, and I have a true passion for caring for children and helping them grow in a safe, fun, and supportive environment. I am a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) with over three years of experience working with children of different ages and abilities through babysitting and behavioral therapy.

I’m currently pursuing my degree in psychology, which has given me an even deeper understanding of child development and positive behavior support. I enjoy planning engaging activities like arts and crafts, reading, games, outdoor play, and educational activities that keep children entertained while encouraging learning and creativity. I’m also happy to help with homework, meal preparation, bedtime routines, diaper changes, light housekeeping, and pet care. I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable leaving their children with someone they can trust, so I always strive to provide dependable, attentive, and compassionate care. Families describe me as patient, responsible, organized, and easy to communicate with. I take pride in building positive relationships with both children and parents, and I treat every child with kindness, respect, and individualized attention. My goal is to create a safe, loving, and positive environment where children feel happy, confident, and cared for while giving parents peace of mind knowing their little ones are in good hands.

"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."
