Amberlee $25 per hour for 1 child

I have always loved working with people and creating a positive, welcoming environment, which is why caregiving has become something I genuinely enjoy. I currently nanny once a week for a family with a 2-year-old and a newborn, and I also work with another family with toddlers, so I have experience balancing multiple kids, keeping them entertained, and helping with routines throughout the day. I have also worked as a preschool teacher, a camp counselor, and a lead teacher at the YMCA for ages 7–9, which helped me build strong leadership, communication, and problem-solving skills. I am also lifeguard certified, so I am trained in CPR and first aid for children, which has made me very confident in handling situations calmly and safely. In addition, I work as a gymnastics coach for children under 7, where I work with large groups of kids and focus on creating a fun, energetic, and safe environment. That experience has taught me how to keep kids engaged, active, and entertained while also making safety the top priority. I would describe myself as energetic, patient, outgoing, and very reliable. I love staying engaged with kids through activities, crafts, games, outdoor time, and just making everyday moments fun. Along with childcare experience, I also have a strong background in customer service and leadership roles, which has made me very organized, adaptable, and good at communicating with both kids and parents. I also love animals and am very comfortable around pets and helping with household tasks when needed.

"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."
