Deisha $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Deisha, and I am fluent in both English and Spanish. I am a dependable, caring, and patient caregiver with over 10 years of experience working with children, a role I genuinely love and am passionate about. Although I have not worked as a nanny recently, I have spent the past 5+ years working as a social worker, where I have continued to work closely with children and families. This experience has strengthened my communication, patience, problem-solving, and caregiving skills. I have experience working with children of all ages, including children on the autism spectrum, and I understand that every child has their own personality, needs, and way of learning. I am attentive, understanding, and enjoy creating engaging, hands-on activities such as arts and crafts, learning games, and imaginative play. I believe a little laughter and creativity can go a long way in helping children feel comfortable and confident. I take pride in creating a safe, nurturing, and supportive environment while assisting with daily routines, meals, homework, and activities. My goal is to provide families with dependable care while creating a warm environment where children feel comfortable, supported, and encouraged to grow.

Kathleen $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Kathleen, and I am a sophomore at Hunter College. Throughout high school, I was a 3-sport varsity athlete (cross country, basketball, and golf) and I played several different sports growing up! My main hobby is running, and I am looking to qualify for the Boston Marathon! I love to entertain and make sure the kids are having fun! I am a very friendly person and although I love to have fun, I always want to make sure we are staying safe. I am very familiar with the kitchen and cooking a good meal. I have two sisters, one older and one younger so I am very familiar with the conflict that can arise. I also have a dog and love all pets.

"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."
