Ella $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Fairfax Station, VA

Hi! My name is Ella, I’m 21 years old, and currently a senior in college. I have over five years of hands-on childcare experience, beginning in Sweden, where I regularly babysat for multiple families. My passion for working with kids has only grown since then. I spent a full summer working at a daycare, caring for children ages 0–5, which gave me strong experience with infants, toddlers, and early childhood development. I have also worked as a camp counselor for three years, supervising overnight campers and helping create a fun, safe, and memorable environment. This role taught me how to stay calm under pressure, manage group dynamics, and connect with kids of all personalities. For the past two years, I’ve been part of the Kaizen MMA after-school program, where I help plan camp days, supervise activities, and manage game time for groups of over 90 kids. This has strengthened my skills in organization, creativity, and large-group safety. Outside of my professional experience, I’ve taken care of my younger cousins their whole lives, which sparked my love for childcare in the first place. I’m responsible, patient, energetic, and truly enjoy supporting kids as they learn and grow. I’d love to help your family next!

"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."
