Diana $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi - I'm Diana and I'm currently a behavior technician at Success on the Spectrum. I am offering childcare, pet care, senior care, and household services. I love working with kids and have been doing so since college, where I was an America Reads tutor for NYC public schools, working in elementary/middle school settings (acted as a teacher assistant essentially). After college, I worked as a paraprofessional for the Jersey City board of Ed for two years, working with middle school-aged special needs students. I then transitioned to being an EMT for four years, working for different medical transport companies dealing with primarily elderly patients. Upon leaving EMS, I became a behavior technician providing in-home services to autistic children after-school while working during the day as a paraprofessional in a special needs elementary/middle school. I recently left both jobs to work full-time at a clinic for autistic children as a behavior technician. I am good with crafts and tutoring and can work as a household assistant to clean and run errands. I own two small dogs and two cats and have been a pet owner since 2014.

"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."
