Hi Parents! I am an experienced caregiver with over 10 years of childcare experience working with children from ages 0–8. I am available full time and truly enjoy helping children grow, learn, and feel safe in a loving environment. I love spending time with kids doing fun and healthy activities such as going for walks, visiting the playground, going to the library, and doing arts and crafts. I believe in creating a positive, nurturing space where children can explore, play, and develop new skills. I am known for being very kind, patient, loving, and caring with the children I work with. As a proud grandmother of three, I understand how important it is for families to have someone they trust to care for their children. I speak Spanish, which allows me to communicate and introduce children to the language. I am also pet-friendly and comfortable in homes with animals. I am currently looking for a full-time caregiving position, but I am also available for date nights and weekend childcare when needed. I look forward to supporting families and providing dependable, loving care for their children.

“affectionate and reliable!”

Hello Families, I have been in the Us for Three years; I have experience with kiddos from 8 months until nine years old. I love to do activities outdoor like parks, going biking, or skating. Also, I love to play indoors and do some activities like science projects or safe baking. I'm easy going person; my lifestyle is into a vegan diet. I also like to share some recipes with the kids. In terms of communication, I am always aware of rules, and I will let you know the activities that I’m planning to do with the kiddos; I will ask for your permission before do something with them. (Going out or possible playdates) I love animals, and I don't mind having pets in your home.

"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."

"Caitlin has been such a lifesaver for our family. We hired Caitlin to help with the after school routine. The kids took to her instantly. She does it all - school pick ups, dinners, baths, lunch making, clean up, etc. She has really helped make a busy time so much easier for us."
