I bring over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to teenagers. Being that I come from a large family, I naturally stepped into the role of a caregiver early on. Beyond that, I’ve actively cared for my nieces and nephews, building a strong foundation in child care. My experience has taught me patience, adaptability, and the importance of creating a safe, nurturing environment for children to thrive. Whether it’s assisting with homework, planning engaging activities, preparing meals, or maintaining household routines, I take pride in ensuring kids feel supported and valued. I’m also skilled at balancing structure with fun, understanding the unique needs of children at different developmental stages. From soothing infants to mentoring teens, I’ve learned to tailor my approach to each child’s personality and needs. I have a natural ability to connect with people of all ages, which extends to seniors and even pets, having provided companionship and assistance for older family members and cared for household pets. My reliability, strong work ethic, and passion for caregiving make me a great fit for any family seeking a dependable and compassionate helper.

I have taken care of my younger family members between the ages of newborn and 5 years old. I also have a loving puppy at home that I take care of, if an animal also needs to be catered to. I love spending time with kids and playing around! On top of all the fun with kids and animals, I love to clean. I manage to keep my home and my apartment for college maintained and clean. I am looking forward to spending time with kids to continue my love for caretaking. I also volunteer/help teach at a public school. I help in a 1st grade classroom, so if your kid may need help with, I am also open to helping with.

“Danyka took amazing care of our 14 month old twin boys! She was great at following their schedule, guiding them through lunch time, playing with their toys, and taking them for walks. She was always very diligent in keeping watch and making sure they were safe, following hungry and sleepy cues, and I would have her watch them again anytime. ”

Nurturing young minds is my passion. I've spent the half of my life caring for children aged newborn to 11, in my community back in Africa including toddlers and preschoolers. I find immense joy in fostering their development. I am patient, calm, friendly, and approachable. I support families by providing reliable care for their little ones. I follow the parents' lead when it comes to household rules and preferred communication methods. I enjoy playing outdoor sports, board games, puzzles, and educational games with children. I am comfortable caring for one to three kids at a time. I have a car and am comfortable with pets. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I look forward to the opportunity to bring my experience and enthusiasm to your family.

"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."
