After three years of experience with household cleaning, I’ve become confident, efficient, and consistent in how I maintain a clean and organized home. I no longer clean randomly or react only when things get messy—I follow routines that keep my space in good condition every day, while also scheduling deeper cleans so nothing is neglected. I understand which tasks need daily attention, like dishes, countertops, and general tidying, and which ones require weekly or monthly focus, such as bathrooms, floors, appliances, and storage areas. My experience shows most in my attention to detail. I’m mindful of high-touch areas like door handles, light switches, and remotes, and I don’t overlook corners, baseboards, or hard-to-see buildup. I know how to properly clean different surfaces—glass, wood, stainless steel, fabric—without damaging them, and I choose the right products and tools instead of relying on trial and error. Cleaning has become more deliberate and precise rather than rushed or surface-level. I’ve also developed strong time-management skills. I work efficiently, breaking tasks into manageable steps so cleaning doesn’t feel overwhelming. I can clean thoroughly without wasting energy, and I adapt my approach depending on the condition of the space or how much time I have. After three years, cleaning feels less like a chore and more like a practiced skill—one that allows me to maintain a consistently high standard of cleanliness, comfort, and order in my home.

No, I’ve been in hospitality for years. I started my career as a babysitter, and eventually managed to handle several blocks during my university years. I love kids I’ve been around kids all of my life. I’ve been in charge of children, all of my life and have successfully seen my charges into adulthood even spanning into careers. I speak French fluently and love to challenge Kids with imaginary play conversation, engagement and crafting. Because I have a degree in visual arts. I’ve use this as a linchpin for communication and expression. I believe it’s important to use freedom of expression, creative play, and imagination to keep a child happy my inspirations are coming from Waldorf, Montessori educational models as well as Canadian Swedish and French training, Swedish methodology

"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."
