Hunter $29 per hour for 1 child

Hi!! NYC/JC preferred, unless transportation is provided (or walkable from train) as I do not drive. I have experience - just over 2 years now! - as an afterschool teaching assistant for elementary school in NYC, grades K-5. It’s something I absolutely love, as chaotic as it can be! We go through snack time, many different kinds of classes, and free choice time, so I am very adaptable and can work through transitions and different activities. I also have 2+ years experience dog and cat sitting - in case there’s any beloved pets in the house that need cuddles, food, or walks! I have no problem staying late for bedtime, cooking, doing laundry, transport, or any cleanup (and, as long as they’re old enough, I’d be happy to involve your kiddo and help develop those skills themselves too)! I have been teaching cooking classes in our program as well, if that’s also a skill you’d like to begin at home. I’m in NJ now, but am perfectly good commuting in as I usually do, since I grew up in the city and currently work there! It would be a pleasure to continue where I love everything about the city and make some new little friends along the way!

"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."
