Jacquelyn $40 per hour for 1 child

I was previously a pediatric nurse practitioner who, during the pandemic, decided it was time for a change. So in 2020, I returned to academia to become certified as a post partum doula, newborn care specialist and pediatric sleep specialist. I have also completed numerous exam-based courses in early childhood development. I have experience working as a caregiver of newborns to young adults, some of whom have been neurodivergent or had medical concerns. I look forward to meeting my next wonderful family.

"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."
