Hello! My name is Tesla. I am 29 years old and have worked in childcare on and off for the last 9 years. During those years I have amassed a diverse array of childcare experience in Utah, California, Hawaii, and New York. I have assisted families with relaxed lifestyles who just need an extra hand, as well as families who require lots of extra assistance and operate with fast-paced schedules in large cities. The bonds I have forged working in childcare have changed my life. I would love to help you and your family!

Hello, My name is Martina, I'm 27 years old and from SPAIN (yeah, I can teach spanish to your kids!) I have +7 years of experience with kids: I used to work as a music teacher with kids and teens in Spain. And the last few years I’ve been working as an aupair, nanny, baby-nurse and spanish-tutor. I love being outside around nature and I love baking. I’d love to share my mediterranean culture with your kids! I can be very flexible with schedules and also working on extra nanny work (groceries, tidying up, laundry, picking up/dropping packages) I really like to work in a kind environment. It’s important for me to feel that we are a team! Contact me if you're interested about it. I’d love to meet your family(:

“I am delighted to recommend Martina who helps my family on weekends. She has an incredible knack for connecting with children. Her warm and engaging nature makes her a natural with kids. She seamlessly incorporates Spanish into their daily activities, fostering a bilingual environment that has greatly benefited my toddler. Beyond her childcare skills, Maria is also an excellent cook. She prepares delicious, healthy meals and is is always happy to help with clean-up and even manages to keep up with the laundry, making our lives much easier. Intelligent and thoughtful, Martina adapts quickly to our family's needs. She is consistently reliable, arriving on time and ready to engage. Her commitment and care go above and beyond, making her an invaluable part of our household. I wholeheartedly recommend Matina to any family seeking a dedicated, talented, and dependable babysitter. ”

Hi, I’m Alisha! I’m a warm, dependable, and experienced professional nanny with 8 years of experience caring for children from newborns through school age throughout the NYC and Tri-State area. Over the years, I’ve cared for infants, toddlers, and school-age children, including siblings and multiple children at different developmental stages. I genuinely enjoy being hands-on and creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children feel comfortable, supported, and encouraged to learn and grow. My experience includes newborn and infant care, bottle feeding, introducing solids, nap and sleep routines, developmental play, sensory activities, reading, arts and crafts, outdoor adventures, school and activity transportation, and creating age-appropriate daily routines. I’m also comfortable helping with children’s laundry, meal preparation, tidying, errands, and other tasks that help keep a household running smoothly. I have completed Early Childhood Education coursework through my Child Development Associate (CDA) journey, which has strengthened my understanding of child development and developmental milestones. I’m also CPR/First Aid certified. As a nanny, I’m patient, communicative, proactive, and adaptable. I believe children thrive when they feel safe, respected, understood, and given opportunities to explore their interests. I also value open communication with parents and believe the best nanny-family relationships are built on trust, respect, consistency, and teamwork. I’m comfortable working independently or alongside work-from-home parents and enjoy becoming a trusted and valued part of the families I work with. Whether we’re having a quiet day at home, exploring the neighborhood, visiting the park or library, or trying a new activity, my goal is always to make the day meaningful, fun, and age-appropriate. I’d love the opportunity to connect with a family who is looking for a caring, experienced nanny who will genuinely invest in their children and become a dependable part of their support system.

"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."
