Hi, I’m Ayanna! I’m a caregiver with over 10 years of experience working with children and pets. I’ve had the privilege of supporting families by caring for children ranging in age from newborns to teenagers (up to age 14), adapting my approach to meet each child’s unique developmental needs. My background includes everything from infant care and sleep routines to homework help, creative play, and emotional support. I have a bachelor's in Psychology and I’m currently pursuing a Master's in education. I am also trained and certified by the American Red Cross in CPR, First Aid, and Advanced Child Care—ensuring that safety and preparedness are always a priority in my care. In addition to working with children, I have extensive experience caring for pets, including dogs, cats, and other small animals. Whether it’s feeding, walking, administering medication, or simply providing companionship, I bring the same level of attentiveness and warmth to animal care as I do to childcare. Above all, I believe in creating a safe, nurturing, and fun environment where children can thrive and families feel supported.

I am a caring and reliable caregiver with hands-on experience working with infants and young children. I currently work as an Infant Assistant Teacher and I am also a mother, which has strengthened my patience, organization, and nurturing skills. I enjoy creating a safe, loving, and structured environment where children can grow and feel secure. I am attentive to routines, feeding, naps, and developmental activities, and I always prioritize children’s safety and well-being.

Ms. Lafrance is a responsible young woman who is dedicated to her work. She is also passionate about children. She takes care of all my children's needs. I'm sure she was born for this job because she treats the children with love.

Hi families! 👋 My name is Jessell Medina, and I’m a full-time nanny with over 4 years of experience caring for children from infancy through preschool age. I’m passionate about creating calm, loving, and structured routines that help children feel safe, confident, and happy every day. My care style is inspired by the Montessori philosophy, focusing on independence, emotional awareness, and learning through play. Whether it’s exploring outdoors, building curiosity through sensory activities, or encouraging gentle manners, I love watching children grow into their best selves. 🌿 I’m CPR and First Aid certified, fully vaccinated, and known for being responsible, patient, and attentive to each child’s unique personality and needs. I truly enjoy forming long-term bonds with families and becoming part of a supportive home environment. I’m currently seeking a stable, full-time position where I can continue to bring warmth, creativity, and structure into a family’s daily life.

"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."
