Hi, my name is Bahara, I am 57 yo. I’m an engineer by education, but I’ve been a professional nanny for 15 years. My love for children led me to work I enjoy, and what brings me true pleasure. I have a wealth of experience raising children and helping them develop, as evidenced by the numerous positive recommendations. I believe that the main joy in working as nanny is the opportunity to share a piece of my soul and to observe kids’ growth. I like working with kids an early age, teaching them new and unknown skills: how to crawl, sit, use a potty, take their first steps, read books and sing songs. Also, I like to spend a time outdoors with kids, which allows us to explore the world: play active games, socialize with other kids and develop new skills. My years of experience and the love I am willing to share allow me to find a common language with little ones and their parents I constantly work for improving my skills in pedagogy by reading articles and literature. Kindness, love, honesty and openness, responsibility and reliability are inherent qualities of my personality, which children immediately feel. In addition, I have no bad habits, I am fully vaccinated from Covid and get a flu shot every year. I have a valid driver license and reliable car. I will be glad to meet and greet new kids and their families. Sincerely Bahara Hasanova

“Bahara was such a delight. She was so responsive leading up to the booking and was so amazing with my son. We felt so comfortable leaving him with her. She came on time and was so attentive the moment she stepped in the door. I’d recommend her in a heartbeat and can’t wait for her to hang out with my son again. ”

Hi, my name is Valeria. I speak two lenguajes fluently, Spanish and English, I also have beginner korean and German. I studied at Baruch college with a major in international business and a minor in marketing. I am now doing my master degree however I am currently just doing research therefore I have all freedom when it comes to scheduling. I’ve been working as babysitter since 2018 with UrbanSitter and I’ve been a mentor and tutor for kids starting from preK all the way through 7th grade with some experiences in high school writing tutoring. I truly love to work with kids and pets, having experience with both. I have worked with a big range of ages and more than 15 long term families along the way. In my free time, I love to dance, learn languages, and travel. I would love to become part of your family and for you to become part of mine. I still occasionally work with families I worked for full time years ago.

Hi, my name is Shumaila. I am currently working part-time as a babysitter and am open to long-term commitments.

"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."
