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 I'm Maria! I am a dedicated and detail-oriented nanny with over 9 years of experience, starting in 2016. My passion for providing a safe, fun, and educational environment for children has been a key driver in my work. I pride myself on creating enriching experiences that promote learning while ensuring that kids are having fun. I am highly organized, follow schedules closely, and work to provide parents with peace of mind, knowing their children are in good hands. As a COVID-19-conscious professional, I have all my vaccines up to date and take all necessary precautions to ensure the safety and well-being of the children in my care. I find working with kids fulfilling because there are so many things to learn and explore with them every day. I love being able to inspire their curiosity and excitement in small and big ways throughout their day. My experience is very diverse as I have worked with newborns, infants, toddlers and older aged kids, as well with multiples(twins) and multiple siblings. I'm also available on weekday evenings should you ever need help then. I am comfortable working around pets as well. I am bilingual in Spanish as well. In addition to child care, I'm able to help with preparing meals, light housekeeping, and laundry. I hope to hear from you soon and look forward to getting to know you and your family more. Thank you!

Greetings! Since the age of thirteen I knew I wanted to work with children. I have been and currently am a camp counselor, lead daycare teacher, babysitter, church choir director, and Sunday School teacher. I love building relationships with young minds and supporting them as they learn to navigate the world around them. I love music, nature, traveling, and interior designing -all of which I incorporate into my babysitting routine! I am outgoing, energetic, creative, and passionate about everything I do! My fellow peers often comment on my ability to “Light up a room” given my gifts to connect with people, maintain a positive spirit, and have a contagious joy. I look forward to connecting with you! Sincerely, Laila

"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."
