Hi! I’m Chloe, I am currently a sophomore at Xavier University here in New Orleans. My major is Chem Pre-med I want to be an ultrasound technician or radiologist. I am originally from Mississippi so I do have a bit of a country accent or so I’ve heard lol but nothing extreme. I have had background babysitting and watching children through my family friends daycare in Jackson MS (Little Einstein Daycare) part-time, I also did my fair share in babysitting for family friends children from ages 3-9. I primarily care for ages around 3-5. I enjoy really engaging with the children, taking them outside to play or fun arts and craft ideas. I like to cook, I also played basketball and love sports, I am also a little of a diehard fan for musicals and anything involving singing. I am willing to help with homework and also cleaning up as needed. I can’t wait to help!

"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."

"Caitlin has been such a lifesaver for our family. We hired Caitlin to help with the after school routine. The kids took to her instantly. She does it all - school pick ups, dinners, baths, lunch making, clean up, etc. She has really helped make a busy time so much easier for us."
