Booked by 1 family in Forest Hills, NY

I’m a Montclair student who loves tech, swimming, and dancing. I’ve spent over three years helping care for a younger family member, sometimes being in charge of meals, playtime, and daily routines. I made sure they were safe, happy, and engaged while their parents were busy. I am responsible, reliable, patient, and kind, and I enjoy helping others feel cared for. I take pride in being trustworthy and hardworking, always willing to step in when needed. My hobbies include swimming and dancing, which keep me energetic and focused. I’m eager to bring my dedication and positive attitude to a caregiving role and make a meaningful difference in the lives of those I assist.

"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."
