Hello there! My name is Imani and I have a B. S. in Human Development and Family Studies from Penn State University and Masters in Social Work. I am family oriented and have a strong passion for working with children and families. I have aspirations of becoming a child welfare social worker. I have had many opportunities in which I monitored children such as being a camp counselor, teacher, and babysitter. My prior responsibilities were monitoring the safety of children, creating arts and crafts activities, leading ice breakers, creating and implementing lesson plans, and teaching ballet and jazz. I am very dedicated to my profession. I focus on all aspects of child development such as verbal communication, educational play, and dance and movement. I'll treat the children as if they were my own by providing them a genuine, loving, and caring environment. I show good judgment by recognizing the needs Read more of your child/ children and I make their safety is my top priority. I am reliable and well organized. I am also CPR/First Aid certified. Thank you for taking the time to read my Bio. Have a great day!

Imani was lovely! She arrived right on time and handled my 9- and 7-year old girls swarming her on arrival. Both girls reported that she was fun and played with them the entire time, and she got them to bed on time. We will definitely book Imani again!

Imani is incredible! She spent the day with my kids and made sure it was full of fun and educational activities, and left me a detailed note with everything they ate and did. She was warm and very friendly with the kids and an absolute pro and keeping them entertained on a rainy day. Highly recommend!

Imani was wonderful with our 1 year old son. He warmed up to her quickly, she provided a text update mid-way through the time she watched him, and she arrived a few minutes early. We really appreciate her!

Imani is cheerful and adorable. She reached out before the sit and kept us posted during our evening out. We will book her again!

Our 4 yr old daughter, who has never had an alternate sitter other than her regular one, really enjoyed her 1st sitting with Imani. Imani was prompt, prepared, energetic and professional, and clearly enjoys working with young children. Our daughter is typically a bit shy with new people, and Imani was very patient and understanding. They did so many different activities together such as dance, art and games! We would definitely rebook with her again. The Chime interface was easy to use as well.
