Konani $23 per hour for 1 child

My name is Konani Bueno-Lama, and I am a dedicated and compassionate caregiver with over two years of experience in both childcare and elderly care. As a proud mother of two boys, caring for others comes naturally to me, and I bring patience, understanding, and genuine love into the work I do every day. I am passionate about supporting and nurturing those in my care, and my love for this work is truly greater than I can put into words. Born and raised in the state of Hawaii, I carry strong values of respect, kindness, and community into every environment I work in.

Moonshine $22 per hour for 1 child

My name is Moon, I’m 28 years old. I have around 6 years of experience in childcare and love working with high energy kids as well as shy and reserved kids. I am experienced in food prep and serving, diaper changes and potty training, creating curriculum that fits individual needs, nap time, and value gentle communication and care. My favorite parts of working with kids are reading books together, exploring and playing outside, and doing art and science activities. I’ve worked in retail for the last year now since I decided to take a break from school and am wanting to get back into childcare because I miss it and feel that it adds a lot of positivity to my life.

"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."
