Sara 1 review
$32 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Sara, I'm 33 years old, and I have 18 years of childcare experience, with 8 years as a dedicated career nanny. My passion is supporting children and families, and I've studied Elementary Education and Psychology at UNC Charlotte. My experience includes working with children from two weeks old to school age, and I specialize in infant care, sleep training, and milestone development. I am also skilled in homework help and activity planning, such as museum visits, music, and science projects. I am a detail-oriented, intuitive, and emotionally attuned nanny who thrives in homes that need a proactive and communicative presence. I offer family assistance services in addition to childcare, including meal preparation, scheduling, home organization, and travel support. During the COVID-19 pandemic, I assisted a family with five children with virtual schooling, managing their schedules, technology, and classroom participation. I also provided homework and school project assistance to support their academics. I enjoy traveling and have had the opportunity to travel both domestically and internationally with families. One memorable experience was accompanying a family with four children, ages 2-8, to Milan, Italy, where I provided childcare, assisted with homeschooling, and helped the family adjust to life abroad. I also have experience providing extended overnight care, for up to two weeks at a time. I am passionate about emotional well-being and believe in open and honest communication. My goal is to help your family function at its best, and I enjoy coming alongside families who need an extra set of hands to build strong relational bonds with their children. I am independent, organized, and have developed a sense of anticipating needs. I look forward to the opportunity to help improve your family's daily life.

“Sara is the most maternal and thoughtful caregiver. She has perfect instincts and is always advocating for the best for children. She is a great communicator and will respectfully work with parents to raise their children. She is very experienced and is able to take care of newborns to teenagers. I highly recommend her for all types of childcare.”

Yanique $25 per hour for 1 child

I have 10 years of experience supporting families across New York as a nanny, personal assistant and house manager. I truly enjoy being part of a child’s growth and creating a safe, nurturing and engaging environment where they can thrive. I’m experienced in building consistent routines, preparing healthy meals, organizing creative activities and supporting children with schoolwork and daily development. In addition to childcare, I’m comfortable managing the day-to-day needs of a busy household whether that’s coordinating schedules, running errands or keeping things organized to help life run smoothly. Outside of childcare, I work as a photographer. I’m looking for a consistent position that fits well with my schedule. I currently work with one other family part-time and my availability remains flexible.

Hi, I'm Brenda! I am a dedicated and compassionate 30-year-old nanny with 5 years of hands-on childcare experience.

"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."
