Booked by 3 families in Astoria, NY

Hello, families! My name is Andyleidy, but you can call me Leidy (pronounced like “Lady”) I’m fully vaccinated and graduated from high school in 2023. I attend BMCC majoring in nursing,I am not enrolled this semester, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability. I’m reliable, organized, a great communicator, and always willing to adapt to each family’s unique routine and parenting style. Whether you need occasional, part-time, or full-time care, I’d love the opportunity to become someone your family can count on. I have years of childcare experience, caring for infants, toddlers, and children since I was 12 years old by babysitting my younger siblings and cousins. I’m a patient, responsible, caring, and dependable nanny who genuinely enjoys helping children learn, grow, and have fun in a safe environment. I also have experience tutoring children, helping with homework, and cooking—one of my favorite hobbies! I love planning fun, age-appropriate activities while also encouraging independent play when it’s appropriate. I am fluent in both English and Spanish and enjoy staying active. I love sports, especially volleyball, and bringing that energy into games and outdoor activities with kids. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to assist with light housekeeping, running errands, meal preparation, and other household tasks to help make your family’s day a little easier. I’m also pet-friendly and have a puppy of my own, so I’m very comfortable around pets. If you have any questions or would like to get to know me better, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I would love the opportunity to build a trusting relationship with your family and care for your children with kindness, patience, and respect.

Britney 3 reviews
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Britney, a 25-year-old marketing professional looking to babysit part-time. I have experience caring for children ranging from toddlers (2 years old) to young teens. I spent a summer regularly caring for a 5 year old during early morning - afternoon shifts, where I handled morning routines, meals, naps, and trips to the park.   I’m patient, attentive, and love keeping kids engaged through reading, games, and creative play, especially when screen time is limited. I’m also happy to accompany children to nearby parks or activities within walking distance or a short subway ride. I aim to create a safe, fun, and structured environment that both kids and parents can feel comfortable with.

“Britney is phenomenal with childcare. She pays close attention to needs to ensure that children feel seen. She also has many interests and hobbies that allow her to introduce kids to different art forms and help them with their creativity!”

Amelie $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! My name is Amelie and I am originally from Boston, now living in NYC as a freshman at the Fashion Institute of Technology. For five years I worked as a sewing instructor at a sewing studio, teaching children from ages 4-15. I adore getting to know each kid and the variety of personalities that come with it. Teaching sewing has allowed me to help children develop confidence, focus, and self-expression through hands-on, engaging projects. I love guiding young learners through the process of turning ideas into something they can be proud of and seeing how they blossom creativity. Alongside that, I’ve spent several years providing babysitting and part-time care for children of various ages and needs. This has taught me how to adapt quickly, communicate clearly with both children and parents, and create a safe, supportive environment. My experience also includes working with children who have disabilities, which has deepened my understanding of how to personalize care and instruction with empathy and patience. I had dogs all through my childhood and have experience in pet sitting. I love all animals! I can clean, bake, and do basic cooking.

Laura $27 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Laura and I’m a first year master’s student at Columbia University. I am offering child care, pet care, and household services. I’ve been babysitting for my own family and family friends since I was a pre-teen! I am the second of 5 kids, so I grew up with a good amount of childcare responsibilities, and I also worked as a nanny in high school. I also had experience in college working with preschoolers through Jumpstart. I love spending time outdoors with kids (parks, playgrounds, or home outdoor space!), and doing arts and crafts, games, or even helping with homework. I own a beagle-mix who I’ve had for 5 years, and I’m very experienced with taking care of dogs. I also have experience taking care of cats. I can also help with a range of household tasks, like cooking, cleaning, and running errands. However I can help out, I’m your girl!

"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."
