Atefeh $20 per hour for 1 child

As a mother of two,with 19 years of childcare experience,, I understand the importance of finding the right caregiver for your children. My experience comes from owning my own in-home daycare till 6 yrs ago.Then I transitioned into customer service work..While I have enjoyed my time in customer service, I have come to realize how much I miss caring for children and infants. Babysitting/nannying is the perfect opportunity for me to fill that void and put a Smile on my face.I am a patient, caring and loving person who is easy to get along with.I strongly believe in great communication and will always keep you informed about your child's well-being. Aside from loving and caring for children, I am also passionate about cleaning, chores and organizing. I love being a helping hand to anything that needs to be done at your house. Additionally, I am an animal lover and will happily care for your pets as well. I understand that finding the right caregiver can be a daunting task. That's why I am happy to provide references upon request. I look forward to the opportunity to meet your family and your precious children. Thank you for taking the time to read my bio.

"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."
