Hello 👋 my name is Miss. Jocelynn and I am looking for new families to help. I have professionally nannied for ten years, and recently, I have completed my Montessori certification to teach children from new born theough three years of age with the Montessori method. Prior to receiving my Montessori certification, I held a CNA, EMT, First-Aid, and CPR certifications as I did my early education in health care, with First-Aid and CPR done very two years. Recently I have completed two years at a Montessori School where I worked directly with children ages 2 months old through 3 years old and found much enjoyment there, learning about children and their development. I am excited to meet new families and hope everyone has a wonderful day 🌄

Hi! I have nanny experience caring for children ages 1 and 3, and I’m comfortable with toddlers and preschool-age kids. I help with daily routines like meals, naps, and bedtime, along with light meal prep and keeping play areas tidy. I enjoy outdoor and nature play, arts and crafts, reading, and imaginative play, and I prefer to keep screen time minimal. I’m patient, attentive, organized, and good with keeping a consistent routine.

Hi families! I’m a caregiver with over seven years of combined babysitting and professional caregiving experience. I currently serve weekly in my church’s children’s ministry, where I care for infants through 12-year-olds, including children with developmental and physical disabilities. Thank you for taking the time to read my bio! You are about to read a fairly in-depth amount of information, but I hope it gives you a clear picture of the kind of caregiver I am and strive to be. Happy reading!! I love meeting children where they are, building trust at their own pace, and creating a space where they feel safe, confident, and excited to learn. I’m a very hands-on and engaged caregiver. You’ll usually find me joining in on playground adventures, board games, crafts, baking, reading stories, outdoor play, or homework time right alongside the children. I believe some of the best learning happens naturally through play, conversation, and everyday moments. I believe every interaction with a child is an opportunity to build trust and confidence. I want the children I care for to know they are safe, respected, and heard, while also experiencing what healthy, dependable relationships look like through everyday interactions. My background in professional caregiving and social services has taught me to remain calm, patient, and dependable while providing compassionate, individualized care. I’m comfortable with infant care, bottle feeding, diaper changes, meal preparation, bedtime routines, bath time, tutoring, light housekeeping, laundry, and pet care. Every family is different, and I truly value following your routines, respecting your parenting style, and maintaining open communication so you always feel informed and confident while you’re away. Families describe me as patient, trustworthy, and reliable. My goal is to provide more than just childcare, I want your children to feel loved, safe, seen, and genuinely cared for. And also, to have fun while we’re together.

"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."
