With your kids I am open to academic tutoring, arts and crafts, outdoor play, and really anything that keeps them engaged or interested! I have two years of full-time classroom experience and have completed a Teacher Certification Program. Additionally, I served with Americorps as an assistant teacher in a fourth grade classroom.

I have over 5 years of experience babysitting. I am great with ensuring routines are followed. I love to find creative activities such as building with toys together, reading books before bedtime, or going to the library if traveling. I am comfortable cooking vegetarian meals and I am knowledgeable on nutrition. I am a nutrition major and babysitting to pay tuition. I also offer tutoring in English, math, science, and percussion instruments if needed.

Kinara $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a Howard University graduate (B.A. in Afro-American Studies, Cum Laude) with hands-on experience as a paraprofessional and tutor at a DC Montessori charter school, working closely with kids on academics, behavior support, and creative learning. I am especially talented with helping school aged children find their love of learning and encourage creativity as I myself am a writer. I’m patient, warm, and naturally good at making learning fun — I love bringing music, art, and storytelling into everyday activities. This fall I’m starting my Master of Social Work focused on child wellbeing, so this work is genuinely part of my path, not just a job. I’m reliable, easy to communicate with, and comfortable with pets too (cat mom to a tuxedo cat named Luna). I’d love to bring energy and care to your family this summer!

"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."
