I am a patient, compassionate, and dependable caregiver with experience caring for children, pets, and maintaining a clean home. I have worked with children since the age of 14 and naturally connect with them through my nurturing, calm, and attentive personality. I am currently 20 years old and expecting my own child, which has deepened my understanding of how important trust, safety, and reassurance are for parents. I also have about a year of experience working at a doggy daycare, caring for dogs of different sizes and temperaments, and I understand that pets are family too. In addition, I am reliable with household cleaning and organization and take pride in creating a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment. I am kind, responsible, adaptable, and truly passionate about caregiving.

“She was so kind and thoughtful. I never truly had a certain babysitter to watch my children so this was a last minute thing. She made sure everything was taken care of and my kids absolutely adored her. Even stayed a little when I returned to help me with a few things. I would definitely hire her again”

Former 2 year Aupair here :) I took care of a one year old and 4 year old at the same time. Tasks were: Morning routine, Make breakfast & lunch, driving to school, nap time, homework and playing. Also took care of 3 kids at the same time: (6,8,11 years old). Tasks were mainly driving and homework. Also taking care of 2 dogs (feeding, walking, playing). 2 baby boys ( year 1&2) Morning and Night Routine, driving, preparing food, often watched the baby’s over night. I love every age group can’t decide which one was the best. I grew up in a big family with 3 younger and one older sibling, so I’m used to taking care of more than just one kid. I also love animals and am happy to take care of them too

“We are so grateful for Og. She started working with our family last spring, and has been a steady and calm presence in our children’s lives. Og is extremely patient and kind, and has a genuine interest in learning about and supporting our children. She is a complete professional, always reliable, punctual and communicative. Most importantly, our children feel safe and cared for when they are with Og.”

"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."
