Hi! I'm Fariani—but most parents end up calling me Mary Poppins. 😊 Caring for children is more than a job to me—it's my passion. I'm a warm, reliable, and patient nanny with experience caring for children from newborns to teenagers, including 4 years working with a child with special needs with feeding tube. I also speak several languages French is my native language. I love creating fun, engaging, and educational days through reading, arts & crafts, parks, museums, board games, homework help, and teaching French. My priority is to provide a safe, loving environment where children feel happy, supported, and encouraged to learn and grow. I'm also happy to prepare healthy meals, help with light housekeeping, and maintain open, honest communication with parents. I'm looking for a family that values kindness, trust, and teamwork.

Hello my name is Caroline, I am professional nanny looking to build long lasting relationships with families as a caretaker. I worked as a professional Chef before transitioning into childcare, so if you need me to feed your little ones, I am the right person for you! I just graduated with a degree in Psychology and I am CPR Certified. I am also bilingual with native fluency in both English and Spanish. And have experience with kids from 0-10 years old and long term references from nanny families. I believe in giving kids the space to express themselves while providing healthy and safe guidelines in a fun and educative environment.

“Caroline was an absolute delight! She took on a job for us at the last minute, and I am so glad we found her! Caroline was communicative and on-time. She started connecting with my daughter right away and was immediately willing to engage with my daughter on her terms. She kept my very energetic child engaged for hours with minimal screen time, which is essentially miraculous. I will absolutely be hiring her again!”

"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."
