I’ve always had a natural affinity for children, having cared for my younger siblings and cousins since I was little. Being CPR certified gives me the confidence to ensure that every child feels safe and secure in my care. I love to create fun and engaging activities, whether it’s arts and crafts or imaginative games, while still maintaining a structured environment. I pride myself on being patient, attentive, and nurturing, always going the extra mile to help children feel comfortable and valued. My ability to connect with kids, combined with my experience and vigilant nature, has made me a trusted and beloved babysitter in my community.

$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Jordan! I’m originally from Milwaukee, WI. I have lots of experience caring for young children, mostly friends’ and family’s kids, which I absolutely love. I’m an artistic and creative person, so arts and crafts are always part of my day, and I enjoy engaging in kid-like activities such as collecting toys, and even watching cartoons. Feeding my inner child brings me a lot of joy which I think makes me relatable and helps kids feel comfortable and excited to spend time together. I’m patient, attentive, and energetic, and I love creating a safe and nurturing environment where children can play, learn, and explore. My background in babysitting multiple kids of different ages has given me experience in keeping routines, encouraging imagination, and adapting to each child’s unique personality. Whether it’s storytime, crafts, outdoor play, or just being a fun companion, I’m dedicated to making each day enjoyable and supportive for the children I care for.

I have two children of my own who are growing up quick. I have 3 years of in-home daycare experience and I have been a nanny for a 18 month old for the past year. My joy is watching children grow and learn new things! Have many references!

"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."
