Hello Families! My name is Rashida and I am a native Bostonian. I am a licensed and experienced Child Care Professional. I have over 20 years of teaching experience and child care experience and I love working with children! I have my Associate's degree in Early Childhood Education and I am infant, toddler, preschool lead teacher qualified and director qualified. I love working with children because I enjoy helping them learn, discover and grow. Seeing and helping infants and toddlers reach new milestones and watching and giving preschoolers and early learners tools to discover the world around them is a joy and is exciting to see. For the past 2 years I have also been teaching Early Childhood trainings and enrichment classes to Educators. The program is in partnership with statewide EEC programs. I am available to provide child care in Boston and in the Greater Boston area. I look forward to meeting and speaking with you!

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.

"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."
