Michael $15 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Michael. I've always enjoyed working with children and helping them learn and grow. I first started working with kids in high school, where I volunteered teaching Sunday school, and today I work as a substitute teacher, mainly providing support for students with special needs. My college coursework in psychology and neuroscience has given me a deeper understanding of child development and behavior, which I bring into my work. I'm patient, empathetic, and see the importance in creating a safe environment where children feel comfortable and supported. Whether it's helping with homework, playing games, keeping a routine, or just being a stable presence, I aim to meet each child's individual needs. I'm also a big animal lover and have recently owned two cats, so I'm happy to care for pets as well.

"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."
