Isabella $15 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! My name is Isabella, and I’m excited to introduce myself and share a little bit about who I am! I am a caregiver with a background in patient care, and I truly enjoy caring for and supporting others. My experience in patient care has taught me the importance of being compassionate, patient, attentive, and present with the people I care for. I enjoy creating an environment where others can feel comfortable, supported, and cared for. I am currently a nursing student taking a gap semester, as well as a facilitated yoga instructor and a sound bowl healer. Part-time, I am currently training to become a full-spectrum doula. These are all things that I am passionate about because I love creating peaceful, nurturing, and supportive spaces for others. I enjoy being present, listening, and meeting people where they are. Outside of that, I am a very creative and nature-loving person. I enjoy creating jewelry, painting, dancing, reading, journaling, going on hikes, going out in nature, doing yoga, spending time with animals, getting sun, and grounding. I love being able to slow down, connect with myself, and enjoy the simple things in life. Some of my current hobbies include learning how to crochet. P.S. I’m still a work in progress! 😂 I enjoy learning new things and allowing myself to be a beginner. I like to think of myself as a student of life. I find something so special in being able to learn and grow in your creativity without needing it to be perfect, just present. Three places on my world travel list are Thailand, Trinidad and Tobago, and Barbados. I see traveling and immersing yourself in different cultures to be so beautiful and a true way of experiencing life. One thing I look forward to is being able to fully immerse myself in the experience of life, so that every day I am one step closer to being the best version of myself. I’m someone who values growth, creativity, connection, nature, and bringing positive energy into the lives of the people around me. As a caregiver, I trust that I will continue to create a space where the families I work with feel supported, heard, and cared for, while bringing patience, kindness, creativity, and a genuine sense of presence into the time I spend with those in my care. I look forward to being a positive and trusted part of your family’s village while creating meaningful connections along the way. 🌿✨

"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."
