Booked by 1 family in Astoria, NY

Hi! My name is Makela, I attend college at LaGuardia Community College, where I’m studying to become a NICU nurse because I’ve always dreamed of caring for little ones. I’ve been looking after kids for about five years now, I have experience working with children aged 0-12 but mostly new borns/toddlers and children up to age of 9. The first job I had was at 14 caring for my little cousin who was a new born at the time and it’s something I’ve loved since the very beginning. I enjoy cooking, dancing, and making everyday moments fun while also being responsible and reliable. I also speak Spanish which is something I’m open to teaching. Most of all, I want to create a safe, happy space for kids and be someone they can look up to. I’d love the chance to bring my energy and care into your family!

“Amazing young,responsible and kind lady. Thank you for being here for us!”

Booked by 2 families in Astoria, NY

I am local Children's Book author and friend of the Brooklyn community. I recently graduated from the University of Washington with a B.S. in Public Health. During my time at UW, I assisted in Child Developmental research where I studied the impact of social cues on 12mo children. I have a passion for serving vulnerable populations and an understanding of how early life experiences tremendously impact an individual's lifelong wellness. I have over 4 years of experience caring for multiple age groups from Infancy to Middle School in both home and classroom settings. Beyond ensuring that your child is safe and healthy, my goal is to foster a creative and fun environment. I look forward to working with you and your family!

“Brittney is extremely communicative, professional, and warm. She has done great with our little guy who can be tough to please. She is patient and kind and isn’t afraid to ask questions. I would definitely recommend her. ”

“Let all that you do be done with love.” — 1 Corinthians 16:14 Hi, my name is Sharon. I have many years of experience caring for both children and seniors, and I truly enjoy being someone families can count on. My childcare experience includes private in-home care as well as working in a daycare setting. I have helped with daily routines, meals, supervision, playtime, light household tasks, and creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for children. I also currently provide private elderly care, where I assist with meals, appointments, companionship, daily routines, and other day-to-day needs. In addition, I previously owned and operated my own cleaning business, where I worked directly with clients, managed household responsibilities, and made sure each home was cared for with attention to detail and consistency. I am organized, detail-oriented, warm, and reliable. I take pride in being helpful, noticing the little things, and making each day a little easier for the families I work with.

“Extremely detail oriented cleaning for an apartment move out. Communicative and reliable.”

Desarie 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Desarie, and I am an experienced childcare professional with several years of experience caring for children from infancy through age 16. I have worked with children in private homes, schools, camps, and educational settings, including experience as a nanny/sitter, Teacher Assistant, and Camp Group Leader. I have experience caring for multiple children at once and supporting families with everything from daily routines, meal preparation and light cooking to children’s laundry, potty training, homework, playtime, outdoor activities, playdates, birthday events, and age-appropriate outings. I’m also comfortable with pets and have experience working early mornings, evenings, and overnight care. My background in education has given me experience supporting children academically, socially, emotionally, and behaviorally. I especially enjoy creating fun activities, encouraging independence, helping with schoolwork, and providing children with a safe and comfortable environment where they can be themselves. I am a Certified Nurse Aide (CNA) and BLS certified through the American Heart Association. I have also completed training in Child Safeguarding, Mandated Reporting, Identifying and Responding to Anaphylaxis, and Health & Safety for Child Care Providers. I am currently pursuing Pre-Health Science/Nursing at LaGuardia Community College with the goal of becoming a pediatric nurse. Working with children has been an important part of my life for years, and I genuinely enjoy watching them grow, reach new milestones, explore their interests, and develop their own personalities.

“Desarie is an amazing sitter; She is professional, has amazing communication and my child adores her! Highly recommended sitter.”

"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."
