Hi, my name is Brittany! I have been in childcare for over 9 years. I have specifically consistently worked in infant childcare for the past 7, but also have and enjoy working with littles of all ages! Flexible schedule, with lots of experience caring for more than one child at a time. Hoping to connect with families looking for some extra help creating a loving, safe and nurturing environment for their child/children. Looking forward to working with you. Thank you!😊

“Brittany has been our longtime babysitter and is truly part of our family. She’s amazing with kids – so professional, warm, and experienced, both in her career and personally. As first-time parents, we’ve learned so much from her. She’s seen everything and always supports and educates us without judgment. She is always on time, incredibly reliable, and genuinely loves children. Our son doesn’t love everyone, but he absolutely adores Brittany. She’s fun, nurturing, and feels like another mom in his life. We’re so excited she’s expanding her network via the app because any family would be lucky to have her.”

"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."
