Also available for tutoring kindergarten to Second Grade with math, reading and writing. I am a Mom myself , I have two adorable children 11 and 15 years olds, I love children and have been always around kids my entire life. As a mother I know that our children are our most valuable possessions, and that it’s very hard to find someone we can trust. Children are precious and finding a caring , fun and loving person to take care of them must be a priority, but must importantly finding a responsible person that will guarantee their safety is a must. I love spending time with kids, love to teach them new things, putting in practice imaginary play which help them with their cognitive development , and just let them be Kids.

The best nanny ever I have, my kids are so happy with her , she is very responsable , funny , educated and very respetuoso with all my family .. 10 star for Yisset ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"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."
