Booked by 1 family in Essington, PA

Hi! My name is Astrid (she/her), and I'm from Santa Fe, New Mexico. I lived in North Carolina for 6 years, first for my undergraduate degree and later for my occupational therapy doctorate. As part of my OT training, I’ve been on rotations in Seattle and Baltimore over the last 6 months. I’m now in Philadelphia for my capstone project, and I am offering childcare and elder care services. I started babysitting as a teenager, and have had the privilege to meet the most wonderful, caring, and special families throughout my childcare experience. I started working with older adults in 2024, and I am beyond grateful for the time, stories, and joy I’ve been able to share across generations.

"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."
