Amy $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! I’m Amy, a warm and dependable caregiver with 10 years of babysitting and nanny experience. I’ve worked with children in after-school programs at the YMCA and Harlem Children’s Zone and I’ve also worked as a CNA. I’m currently studying Communications. I love finding activities each child enjoys, whether that’s crafts, reading, outdoor play or homework help. I can help with school pickup, meals and bedtime routines too. I’ll follow your family’s routine to keep you updated and make sure your child feels safe and cared for. I’m new to UrbanSitter but I’ve worked with families through other childcare sites and can provide references upon request. I’m available to start immediately, with weekday afternoon availability and open availability on some weekends!

indielacia $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Indielacia, but you can call me Indie! I recently moved back home after living in Ithaca, New York, where I attended Ithaca College studying Public Health and Childhood Education. While in Ithaca, I worked at a local daycare and gained almost 3 years of hands-on childcare experience. I’ve been caring for children since I was 14 and have experience with children of different ages, including toddlers, older children, and twins. I’m comfortable with school drop-offs and pick-ups, nap time, bedtime, meals, diapering, potty training, and keeping children engaged throughout the day. I love playing, dancing, coloring, doing creative activities, and going to parks or museums with children. I’m patient, caring, energetic, responsible, and dependable, and I always try to make children feel safe and comfortable. I’m also comfortable caring for cats and other pets. I’m CPR-certified and excited to get to know new families and provide caring, one-on-one support!

"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."
