— I am taking a break from childcare to handle some things in my personal life. Thank you for viewing my profile, and have a blessed day. ❤️ •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• *MORE ABOUT MYSELF* I have 9 years of childcare experience, working with ages 2 months - 14 years old. I am also a parent of a six year old who has highly-functioning ASD, so I enjoy being an independent childcare provider as it allows more flexibility in my schedule. Being a parent of child with special needs also means that I have first hand experience! I feel that I am great at creating structure for children, while also creating a safe and comfortable environment in which they can learn + grow! I have my ECE Level 1 Credential, First Aid/CPR Certification, as well as Food Service Manager Certification. Ultimately, my goal is to make you and your family’s lives easier! I love to work aside thoughtful parents that understand while I am there to assist you, I also have a life of my own. I believe that good communication is essential and I will exercise it at all times. Thank you!

"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."
