Hi families! I'm a nanny with over two years of experience caring for children from 0 to 12 years old. I'm passionate about supporting their growth in a safe, loving environment filled with fun and learning.

I'm responsible, respectful, honest and very empathetic with children's emotions. I'm also creative, patient, and love creating fun moments that contribute to their development. I always keep open communication with parents and adapt to their rules and routines. I have tons of fun ideas, educational games, and activities to keep kids engaged, happy, and safe.

"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."
