My first time watching children was when I was in foster care. I use to go to a church and volunteer in the day care center at the church. I worked with children from the ages of newborn up to middle school age. I did the every Sunday for 3 years. Then I started working at Daycare as a temporary or seasonal position with children of the ages of new born till 5 years old. That was the highest age of the daycares Now I am an idependent contractor. I've had 3 families I've worked. Two of the families end up moving out of state. The third famiyl i still work with on occasion.

Hi!! I worked at the James J Eagan center’s summer camp for two years while in high school. Me and my co-counselor were responsible for up to 30 kids daily. We planned activities for them daily, and made sure that they stayed safe daily. I believe that my approach is a strength of mine when it comes to caring for children. I enjoy singing, dancing, playing games, reading, and movies, and I am more than happy to engage with a child’s personal interests. I am willing to obtain a CPR certification if necessary!

I love being a sitter because I genuinely enjoy connecting with children and fostering their creativity. It’s rewarding to provide peace of mind to parents, knowing their children are safe, happy, and well-cared for. I have a year of experience working in ABC Child care. I have been babysitting for 8+years having 4 siblings I used to look after. I am skilled at Diapering, bathing, support potty training, feeding, and comforting upset children. I do not run errands as I don’t have drive yet. I do not mind, light cleaning, doing dishes, cooking, and taking out the trash. I’ve had plenty of cats and dogs so I know a lot that comes with taking care of them. I am a respectful, patient, empathetic, and energetic person who is very passionate about creating a safe nurturing environment. I am also CPR/AED/First Aid certified.

"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."

"Caitlin has been such a lifesaver for our family. We hired Caitlin to help with the after school routine. The kids took to her instantly. She does it all - school pick ups, dinners, baths, lunch making, clean up, etc. She has really helped make a busy time so much easier for us."
