Maya $27 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Maya, and caring for children has always been a big part of my life. I was born in New York, grew up in California, and have been back in New York for the past seven years. I started babysitting in college and quickly realized how much I love helping kids learn, play, and grow. I come from a big family, so I’ve had lots of hands-on experience with little ones—including my 3-year-old brother and many younger cousins that I’ve proudly helped care for over the years. I know how important it is to create a safe, fun, and nurturing environment, and I always treat children with the same care and attention I would want for my own family. I’m a non-smoker, enjoy spending time outside, and love getting creative with arts and crafts. Whether it’s helping with homework, organizing fun activities, or simply being a kind and reliable presence, I take pride in making every day positive for both kids and parents. I’m currently looking for a full-time nanny position and would be excited to become a trusted part of your family’s support system!

I have experience providing dependable, compassionate care for children, pets, and homes. I’ve babysat privately for families and volunteered at my local church’s nursery and toddler center, often filling in when extra help was needed. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable caring for children of different ages. In addition, I’ve house sat, provided light cleaning services, and cared for both dogs and cats.

"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."
