Booked by 2 families in Astoria, NY

Hi! My name is Ruby, I’m 24 years old and live on the Upper West Side. I’ve been babysitting and nannying since I was 16 and have over 3 years of experience as an American Red Cross–certified lifeguard, with strong training in water safety, CPR, and first aid. I have worked at many residential pools as well as a swim school, engaging with children of various ages. I’m very comfortable managing routines, keeping kids engaged, and ensuring a safe, fun environment. I’m dependable, patient, and attentive, and I genuinely enjoy building trusting relationships with both kids and parents. I’m happy to help with light meal prep, homework, bedtime routines, and anything else that helps your family run smoothly. I’m looking to support families who need an extra, reliable set of hands and would love to connect!

“Ruby was amazing! She was professional, reliable and very interactive and attentive with our 1.5 year old. Will definitely book again! ”

Booked by 1 family in Astoria, NY

I’m 21 and I’ve had plenty of experience with infants and toddlers. I took care of my sister from birth and I also had my own infant classroom and a 2 year old classroom. I have a lot of experience in feeding, changing, nap time, potty training, and developmental activities. I like to babysit and nanny because it brings me joy, kids do all of the fun things lol… play, eat, and sleep. I’ve been caring for children since the age of 11 so I’ve got a few years of experience up my sleeve. I’m okay with pets! I can help with meals and cleaning up, and I’m also happy to care for them in my own home. If the weather permits, I would like to take them to do outside activities, if not I love a good DIY craft. I do share my location and give frequent updates because I know I’d appreciate it. I also like to remind parents that when it comes to your kids you’re never asking for too much so please feel comfortable asking me to do things. Although I have a lot of experience with younger kids I’m 100% okay with caring for older children, I don’t discriminate. If you’d need me for longer than planned or for overnight care just let me know in advance and I’ll let you know what I can do! Thank you for taking the time to consider me, and have a great day! :)

Booked by 1 family in Astoria, NY

Hi! My name is Alicia and I attend Lehman College. My major is sociology. I have experience with children from the ages of 6 months to 14 years old and have been working with children since the age of 13. I have a very flexible schedule on the weekends. I can prepare meals, help with bathing/dressing, changing diapers, homework, cleaning up, bedtime and plan and partake in activities with the children. I can also help with swimming supervision, transportation, light house work, and grocery shopping. I work well with multiple children since I grew up taking care of my younger siblings. I am also comfortable taking care of animals and have a dog of my own. A little more about me: I am kind, helpful, caring, patient, fun, smart, and creative. I like to read, play board games, paint, do karaoke, write, and bake. I am patient when dealing with children's needs, emotions, and behavior. I have great communication skills that help me better understand and address the child's needs. Always ensuring a safe environment for the child is of utmost importance to me. I look forward to the opportunity to be that reliable, responsible, engaging caretaker you are seeking.

“Alicia came early and was very nice, attentive and responsible. My daughters said they liked her and looked forward to seeing her again. I definitely recommend her. Alicia did a wonderful job. She texted me updates as needed and was able to keep my girls engaged during a long day together. She is reliable, professional and simply a nice, considerate person. Just a pleasure to work with.”

Booked by 1 family in Astoria, NY

Hello! My name is Viktoria, and I am a graduate student in Clinical Psychology at Teachers College, Columbia University. I have over 5 years of experience caring for children and supporting their development, and I’m passionate about combining creativity, movement, and learning in fun, age-appropriate ways. I have worked with children of all ages, from infants to elementary schoolers. My experience includes babysitting for families and caring for my nieces, serving as a dance assistant for ballet (2[removed]), and currently working as an Assistant Preschool Teacher at Hollingworth Preschool with children ages 3–5. I love engaging kids through movement, dance, reading, outdoor play, and creative arts. I can also support with homework, basic tutoring, and light meal prep. I am fluent in English and Greek and bring a warm, caring, and structured approach. I enjoy spending time with animals and have experience walking, feeding, and playing with dogs and cats. In my family, we’ve cared for 6 dogs and 3 cats, so I’m very comfortable with animals of all personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I am also happy to provide walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of love and attention, whether with small pets or large breeds that shed.

"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."
