Azizah $20 per hour for 1 child

I am a 25 year experienced childcare provider my journey goes a little like this... Having just two years of professional experience in infant care, my nurturing and compassionate nature has been shaped by both my work and my own journey as a mother, giving me deep familiarity with the early stages of infancy and the calm, attentive care they require. Toddlers are one of my favorite age groups thanks to their natural curiosity and wonder, and I’ve spent approximately five years supporting their growth through potty training, imaginative play, and age-appropriate independence. I also have eight years of experience working with preschoolers, whose similar sense of exploration allows me to bring the same enthusiasm and developmental support to their learning. The largest portion of my background—about twelve years—has been dedicated to school-aged children, where I’ve helped emerging readers build literacy skills and guided middle schoolers in developing confidence and purpose. Across all age groups, these experiences have strengthened my resilience, adaptability, and patience, which I bring to every child and every moment of care. I’m an extrovert through and through—I love to laugh and truly am a kid at heart! By kid, I mean I don’t mind getting messy, playing ninja, singing Disney songs at the top of my lungs, having spontaneous dance parties, and cracking (and laughing at) endless knock-knock jokes. As both a former educator and a mom, I’ve mastered the art of balancing firmness with fairness—always leading with respect, understanding, and a whole lot of heart.

"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."
