Hi! My name is Clarissa, and I have over 10 years of experience as a nanny, household assistant, and caregiver. I’m a dependable, patient, and organized person who truly enjoys helping families create a safe, loving, and structured environment for their children. I have experience caring for newborns, infants, toddlers, and school-aged children, including managing routines, school drop-offs/pickups, meal prep, light housekeeping, homework help, and engaging educational activities. As a mother of three myself, I understand the importance of trust, communication, and consistency in a home. Families describe me as nurturing, attentive, calm under pressure, and proactive. I’m bilingual in English and Spanish, have a clean driving record, and always aim to support both the children and the household as a whole.

"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."
