Hi families my name is Naima!! I’ve been a babysitter/nanny for the last 10 years!I’m energetic fun caring loving and easy going!! I speak Swahili and some French too! Im comfortable around pets and love dogs and cats! I also do housekeeping,help with homework,bedtime routine,arrange play dates,pick and drop off kids to school or after school activities and I can cook light meals. Babysitting and being a nanny Is second nature to me,for me it’s more of the experience with the kids,having tools to educate them protect them,care for them nurture them and put them on the right path❤️,it’s certainly not just a job!( to me)

“I’m pleased to recommend Nanyuma as a babysitter. She has consistently shown reliability, professionalism, and genuine care in every interaction. She has solid experience with children of various ages and adapts easily to their different personalities and routines. She communicates clearly, follows instructions, and always shows up on time — which has made her someone I can depend on without hesitation. Tasks such as supervising playtime, preparing small meals, supporting bedtime routines, and maintaining safety are handled confidently and responsibly. What truly stands out is her calm, patient, and kind approach. Children feel comfortable with her, and she engages them in a positive, respectful way. I never have to worry when they are with her — she creates a safe, supportive environment and keeps them meaningfully occupied. I highly recommend Nanyuma to any family who needs a trustworthy and caring babysitter. She is reliable, responsible, and consistently meets expectations with maturity and care.”

Hi Families!!! I’m so excited to connect with you all. I am a Preschool Teacher/Daycare Provider/Aftercare Teacher based in Brooklyn, New York currently looking for a part time position. My goal as a Nanny is to provide the best environment for both the children and parents, to have the children’s best interest in mind, make sure the children are safe and having fun, and to give my help, support and love. I treat each child as an individual and as if they are a part of my own family and my own children. As a childcare provider, each child’s personal health and safety is of utmost importance to me. I adore being a part of a child’s and family’s growth. I am willing to do housekeeping that includes light cleaning, picking up toys, helping children clean their rooms, clean play area, family errands, dishes, children’s laundry, certain meal preparation and keeping the house tidy. Activities that I would like to incorporate in the daily plan for the child/children I care for would include artistic activities (painting, crafts), any day trips, reading, writing, movies, park outings, daily walks, play dates, anything I’d bring with me such as drawing books or tutoring material, or just simple one on one time, lots of love and care and attention and anything else that we’ve discussed prior that would interest the child/children. I am CPR, BLS, First Aid, and AED certified. I also offer homework help and Zoom class/Google classroom support if applicable for subjects English, Social Studies & Science for grades K-8.

I'm a caring, responsible, and active caregiver with experience working in schools and private homes. I love helping children learn, play, and feel safe.

“We had a wonderful experience with Besma. She cared for our children with incredible kindness, patience, and constant positive energy. She was always smiling and full of joy, creating a warm and happy environment. Every day, she organized a thoughtful program of activities, keeping the kids engaged, active, and happy. Her ability to plan, play, and interact with the children with such enthusiasm truly impressed us. I highly recommend her to any family looking for a trustworthy, organized, and loving babysitter. Thank you Besma!”

"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."

"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."
