Shelina $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Shelina, and I bring over 20 years of experience working with children, adults, and families across various educational and caregiving roles. I’ve had the privilege of working with special needs children and adults during my time at AHRC NYC, where I provided compassionate care, support, and education. Additionally, I’ve worked extensively within the NYC Department of Education, contributing to the growth and development of students for many years. Beyond that, I’ve also had experience in family crisis intervention, ensuring that I can handle sensitive situations with empathy and professionalism. I’m deeply committed to offering support that fosters growth, safety, and well-being for all individuals I work with. I am CPR certified in NJ and have driving defensive course certificate through my current employer New Concepts for Living where I am a Residential DSP Supervisor. I grew up in New York City but have been living in Bergen County for over 10 years. I have two daughters who are in college so me and my husband are finally empty nesters lol. I love all pets including reptiles. I am a non-smoker. Outside of work I freelance as a personal stylist/shopper.

I have been a professional caregiver for over five years, working with children of all ages and supporting families from diverse backgrounds. While every family is unique, my goal remains the same: to provide a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment while respecting each family’s values, routines, and wishes. I understand that every child is different some are artistic, others are athletic, avid readers, or curious explorers. I take pride in adapting to each child’s personality, interests, and environment to promote comfort, confidence, and healthy development. Building trust with both children and parents is a priority for me, and I strive to create a space where children feel secure, supported, and encouraged to be themselves. I also have experience caring for children with disabilities and understand the importance of patience, flexibility, and individualized care. I am CPR, AED, and First Aid certified, a Certified Nursing Assistant, and continuously committed to providing attentive, compassionate, and reliable care. Above all, I aim to be a dependable support system for families while making each child’s day safe, enriching, and enjoyable.

"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."
