Hi! I am a classically trained violinist/violist and former music teacher pre-school through high school. I am also the mom of three young adults. I have both birth and postpartum doula training, and am currently getting certified in postpartum yoga. I have been around babies and children my entire life. I am warm, nurturing, very patient, and an expert with newborns and infants. I have been told I have very calming positive energy. I am available for one off childcare, as well as flexible in terms of scheduling, including nighttime/overnights and daytime care. I am also a bit obsessed with the NYT cooking app, and happy to prepare meals. I am certified in CPR and first aid, and comfortable around animals. Please reach out if you have any questions!
Hi! My name is Ashley I’m 18 years old and I am offering child care and pet care!! I have 5 family dogs and 1 personal dog of my own but they all get the same amount of love!!! I’ve had dogs since I was in second grade and they are my everything! I used to take my two older pups on walks and adventures all the time until they couldn’t anymore. Me and my dog Hazel always go on adventures like shopping, doggy parks, food runs, etc!! Overall dogs are everything! I also provide child care! I have three younger cousins that I used to watch and take care of! I love being a babysitter because I love being able to do so many different activities with the kids. For example, coloring, watching movies, dressing up, letting them do my makeup or hair, etc!
“Ashley has been working for me since 2023. My daughter was 3, son, 6 at the time. I use her services quite often. My picky eater finishes meals for her. She keeps them entertained. We have not experienced any major problems. My kids are pretty active, so the occasional skinned knee is dealt with as I would. Ashley has never had to call me to solve a problem, but, I have no doubts she would, if necessary. Ashley has never cancelled on a regularly schedule date. She has also come through for me on short notice a few times. I trust Her with my children because she respects me, my house, my rules, as well as, my children. I don't worry when I'm out because I know my children are being well cared for.”
Hi my name is Marina. I was born in Ukraine and speak fluent Ukrainian , Russian as well as English. I decided to become a nanny 10 years ago because it is a very rewarding career that brings joy into my life. I have excellent references that I would like to share on private messages when the time comes.I worked in the Financial District taking care of 2 children but the job came to an end as a family moved to Germany. I worked for a family in New Jersey, as a live-in nanny; with 5 kids in a Brooklyn family as a mother helper; family with 2 boys and a girl, ages 7, 8 and 3 years, with a family in Battery Park city with 2 amazing kids ages 4 and 2. I also have been working in the day care for a year back in Ukraine where I graduated Teacher Training University. I enjoy playing with dinosaurs and cars, as much as dolls and princesses. I enjoy cooking healthy meals, reading and singing to kids, teaching manners and good eating habits, helping with homework and playing sport (especially soccer). I consider myself a great nanny that treats kids as if they were my own. I also have great reference letters that can tell you more about the care I give to kids, my priorities are safety, education and happiness when it comes to my job. P. S. My policies: - 5 hour- minimum of work -50% cancellation policy - ride home after 10pm -50% premium on Weekends - let me know if kids are sick. -50%/hour after 6pm -15$ eaxta for every kid
“Marina is professional, punctual, reliable, and asks all the right questions that show that she is both experienced and very attentive to the needs of the little ones and the parents' preferences. She goes the extra mile, tidying toys and running the dishwasher for baby bottles without being asked. But most of all she is genuinely warm and caring and develops a rapport with the kids so that they are comfortable with her and look forward to her coming. Thanks Marina!”
Hello Parents! *Available for weekend and occasional care in the 2025-26 school year.* My name is Laurel. I really enjoy being a nanny and babysitting. I am very engaging with children and we have tons of fun together. This past year I have been a nanny for an adorable three year old girl in Park Slope. I will be continuing with them in the fall. I will have availability for weekend and occasional care during the upcoming 2025-26 school year. I have experience with a range of ages from toddlers to preteens. I’ve got a great sense of humor and can be playful. I truly enjoy reading stories to kids. My current favorites are the Frog and Toad books. I can help your older child with homework too. I’m very patient, kind, creative and reliable. I have experience with neurodivergent kids, including ADHD and those on the autism spectrum. As a native New Yorker I’m familiar with the public parks, playgrounds, libraries and kid friendly museums. I’m comfortable taking kids on the bus or subway. I’m LGBTQIA+ friendly, CPR/First Aid Certified and Youth Mental Health First Aid trained. I’m a non smoker and Covid vaccinated and boosted. I recently had a MMR booster as well. I’m comfortable around pets and enjoy their company. Reach out if you think I might be a good fit for your family. I’d be happy to talk with you on a video call about your childcare needs.
“Laurel has been a transformative presence in our children's lives. She began nannying for our family when our now-three y/o entered preschool at two years, nine-months. Laurel has been an outstanding caregiver, helping to guide our three-year-old through significant developmental steps, including but not limited to school day routines (drop-off and pick-up), getting dressed by oneself, potty-training, consistent napping, and the range of big feelings common to preschool-aged children. Laurel is steady, calm, and direct with the children; she affirms their individual agency while setting clear boundaries and expectations for safe and caring behavior. She helps them work towards goals at their own pace and enables their self-sufficiency while also providing lots of thoughtful support. Our other child is eleven years old and Laurel offers age-appropriate space to foster independence in this older sibling. She is creative in the games that she plays with both children and always gets our younger one into the park for some outdoor exploration, rain or shine. In our dealings, she is punctual, unflaggingly reliable, and professional. We cannot recommend Laurel enough!”

"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."
Michelle R., mom of two
"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."
Milena L., mom of two
"Caitlin has been such a lifesaver for our family. We hired Caitlin to help with the after school routine. The kids took to her instantly. She does it all - school pick ups, dinners, baths, lunch making, clean up, etc. She has really helped make a busy time so much easier for us."
Heather B., mom of two
