Hey families!!, I’m 26 years old. I have 3 years of professional childcare experience and over 5 years of caring for children overall. I’m fully certified for infant/toddler and preschool care and I’m CPR certified. I’m currently taking a break from working in daycare trying to focus on my collage career but I still truly love caring for children and would love to support a family more personally as a nanny. I’m an artist and I previously ran my own children’s painting business called Juice Box and Paint, where I hosted fun sip-and-paint style activities for kids ages 2–13. I’m very patient, and naturally great with kids. I also love nature and gardening, and enjoy getting kids outside to explore and learn. I drive, cook, clean, can do hair, and I’m very comfortable with pets (I have a dog myself). I’m currently fully available and open to being a live-in nanny, travel nanny, or in-home nanny. I really enjoy creating a warm, safe, and loving environment where children can learn, feel supported, and just be themselves! Thanks for reading ❤️

I’m 20 years old. I have two younger brothers. One just turned 7 and the second one is 3 years old. I help my mom babysit them after school or when she has to run errands. I have prior experience babysitting for other families too. And I enjoy being with kids!

"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."
