Brianna $25 per hour for 1 child

If you need tutoring, special education support, or behavior support — let me help! If you need a calm adult who can support the entire family, from behavior plans, to deescalating arguments with children, transitions, and general emotional support- I'm here! I have a Bachelor's degree in Special Education and hold a Special Education K-12 license, with over 10 years of experience working with children and young adults from 6 weeks to 21 years old. I started working with children in high school through early childhood education classes and built my career from there — working in Montessori and Waldorf school settings, as a Special Education teacher, and most recently as a behavior specialist working across school, family, and clinical settings with children, teens, and adults. Working with children is my passion, and I have a particular love for supporting kids who are navigating behavior challenges. I've worked extensively with ADHD, ASD, SPD, and a wide range of cognitive and learning differences. I believe deeply in positive behavior supports and lead with social-emotional learning in everything I do — helping kids not just manage their behavior, but actually understand themselves better. I also bring over 13 years of experience supporting families directly in their homes, so I understand the full picture — not just the child, but the whole family system. Feel free to reach out with any questions, and I'm happy to connect you with references right away!

"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."
