I am a recent college graduate passionate about working with children. I have experience caring for children from newborns to age 9 and enjoy creating a fun, safe, and nurturing environment. I love engaging little ones through reading, outdoor sports and activities, arts and crafts, and helping with homework to support their growth and development. I am CPR certified and comfortable with light household cleanup to help keep things running smoothly. I’m currently looking for part-time work with the potential to transition into full-time. My goal is to provide reliable, caring support for your family and ensure your children feel safe, loved, and encouraged.

“My kids loved their experience and they are both eager to go back.”

"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."
