Erykah $27 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Erykah and I have been working in the childcare field going on 9 years now, I have worked in a few different centers with different age groups as well as multiple different teaching styles. I enjoy working with children, I have some college education in Early Childhood. I am qualified to be a lead teacher in the childcare center so I am very experienced and hands on with children. I have a huge passion for caring for children and being apart of their overall growth and development. I want to sway away from working in the center and being more one on one with children which is why I am exploring nanny positions. I recently have worked with two families as a nanny within this past year and it has been an amazing experience. I would love to continue to help families with caring for their children and be apart of servicing their needs.

"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."
