Dan $19 per hour for 1 child

I’m a retired professional and Northwestern graduate with a caring, dependable nature and years of hands-on experience helping seniors and families. I cared for my father through his Alzheimer’s journey and now assist my 85-year-old mother-in-law and 86-year-old stepmom with daily needs — from shopping and meals to yardwork and companionship. I understand the challenges of caring for aging parents and know how to connect with those facing memory issues in a calm, positive way. I keep a clean, organized home, am an excellent cook, and a very efficient grocery shopper. I also bring over 40 years of experience in yard care and maintenance, ensuring that both homes and outdoor spaces are well cared for. In addition to senior care, I’m available for pet sitting, house sitting, and general household help. My goal is to make life easier, safer, and more enjoyable — and to bring dependable support to families who could use an extra hand.

"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."
