Hi there! I am an experienced nanny and sitter as well as a former preschool and daycare teacher. I have STARS training, two bachelor degrees, reliable transportation and a clean background. I have been working with children for the last 20 years and really enjoy it! Children have always been my passion, and I haven't found anything more rewarding than teaching and taking care of children. For fun I enjoy movies, music, arts and crafts, writing, photography, road trips and spending time with my dog.

Hello, I'm Sumeya, a student with a deep passion for working with children. My long-term goal is to become a pediatrician, and in the meantime, I am gaining hands-on experience as a caregiver. Last year, I worked with Amicable Healthcare as a full-time caregiver for two families and have also assisted children with disabilities. Through these experiences, including caring for infants, I've developed a genuine love for nurturing children in a safe, engaging environment. I am an energetic, physically active person with a strong interest in sports like soccer, basketball, and biking. Although I have a slight phobia of dogs, I’m actively working on overcoming it and I’m open to working in homes with dogs. In addition to childcare, I am comfortable with housework and running errands. I hold a valid first aid and CPR certification, ensuring I can respond appropriately in emergency situations. My love for children extends beyond basic care—I also enjoy teaching them creative activities like painting and engaging in outdoor adventures. I am excited about the opportunity to contribute to the growth and development of children while creating a positive and nurturing environment.

"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."
