Kendal Barbour- / 19 Filmmaker, Actress, and Optimist. Hi! I’m a friendly, dependable, and caring person with over 10 years of experience helping care for children and infants. Coming from a big family with four siblings, both older and younger than me, I’ve spent much of my life helping with childcare and learning how to be patient, responsible, and attentive to children’s needs at every stage of development. I am also CPR certified, giving families added peace of mind knowing their children are in safe and capable hands. I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids, whether that means helping with homework, reading stories, planning fun activities, encouraging creativity, or simply being a positive and supportive presence. My goal is always to create a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children can learn, grow, and have fun. I also have experience caring for a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, fish, birds, turtles, and lizards, so I’m happy to help with family pets as well. I graduated from a performing arts high school, where I studied acting, dance, stage combat, dialects, and stage management. My creative background helps me connect with children through games, storytelling, arts and crafts, music, and imaginative play. I’m organized, trustworthy, and easy to get along with, with strong communication skills and a flexible schedule. Whether it’s keeping routines on track, preparing simple meals, tidying up after activities, helping around the house, or providing attentive care for infants and children, I take pride in being someone families can count on and feel comfortable welcoming into their home.

“Kendal is very dependable as well as reliable very outgoing stand up person who is very responsible”

"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."
