Booked by 1 family in Mahwah, NJ

Hi, I'm Shannon! I love working with kids, and have many years of childcare experience. Most recently, I have been nannying a six-month-old infant in Sleepy Hollow, and two toddlers in Irvington, doing lots of storytime and outdoor play. I grew up in Bergen County, NJ, and now live in Nyack, NY. I am currently in grad school part-time at SUNY New Paltz to become a child therapist, and have extensive and varied experiences working with kids aged 1-16, at New Paltz Youth Center, All About Me Early Learning Center in Cresskill, NJ, and Tenafly Nature Center’s nature-based summer camp, in addition to various babysitting, tutoring, and volunteering experiences. I am very interested in working with families on a part-time basis to provide fun, engaging experiences for kids, from infants up to teens. When working with kids, I take into account their strengths, personal interests, and stage of development, and like to build a strong relationship where each child feels respected and supported in various areas of their life. I love integrating each child's unique creativity and understanding of the world into how I work with them on their homework, art projects, and play time. I am also a huge pet lover (I have a cat named Evie), and am available if any pet care is needed. Please reach out if there are any other questions I can answer, I would love to work with you and your family!

"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."
