I’ve raised three happy successful sons, and now I’m a grandma! As a mother of three I’ve seen it all. There is nothing I can’t handle.

I don’t mind running errands, light cooking, helping with homework or driving kids to activities. I have my own car, and I am an excellent driver. I am physically fit, energetic, college educated and I love the outdoors and being around kids! U.S citizen, First aid and CPR certified, and I’ve had my Tdap shot. Would like to work 20-40 hours a week. Excellent reference. My rate is $22-$40 per hour depending on the requirements of the position. Thanks for considering me.

"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."
