Meagan $35 per hour for 1 child

My name is Meagan and I am a Bushwick bound childcare expert and teaching artist who loves working with children! I describe myself as, an empathetic creative with many vibrant colors. I love to act, sing, dance, & empower children. My friends would say that I'm a joyful spirit with a laugh the size of Las Vegas, which is where I'm originally from! I am the co-creator of Mixed in America, a community organization created to empower and uplift multiracial families & individuals. I lead support groups & do workshops for schools around the country. I am a proud mixed-race woman myself so giving back in this way is extremely important to me. This work has made me deeply vulnerable to the unique needs of children, & their desire to be truly seen, felt & heard by their caretakers. I love helping children express themselves! I encourage them to celebrate their uniqueness by facilitating the creation of their own stories/plays/dances/etc. I adore teaching children early on about the power of their own imagination. I see children as enormous souls in small packages, and that mantra ensures that I never underestimate their brilliance. I have 15 years of childcare experience working with children ranging from newborn to teens. This includes children with autism, special needs, ADHD and stuttering. My training includes over 7 years of arts education through organizations such as Lincoln Center Education, Girl Be Heard, The Stuttering Association for the Young, Bartol's Trauma Informed training, Girl's First Trauma Informed training, & Mama Glow Doula training. Additionally, I have a BFA in Drama from the University of North Carolina School of the Arts. One of my greatest skills is my emotionally intuitive nature. I am able to connect with the emotional needs of a child while also honoring boundaries, rules, and safety. I've lived in Nevada, North Carolina, Philadelphia and New York City, so I have experience with diverse families from many different cultures and walks of life. Lastly, I am comfy in the kitchen and I enjoy keeping my environment organized and tidy. You can count on me to leave your home tidier than I found it! Thank you so much for any consideration and I look forward to hearing from your lovely family!

Anyah $19 per hour for 1 child

I am a scholar enrolled in Borough of Manhattan Community College. I lost my Home Health Aide job due to an unforeseen car accident that left me walking with a cane. Disability has cut me off but I feel that when one door closes another opens for better. I have worked as an after school counselor, a volunteer at many child events, have five well taken care of healthy animals in the home, and have been taking care of kids for longer than I can imagine. Need someone you can trust? Tired of looking? I like longevity as well, so please don’t hesitate to interview me. For school- grade kids I have created lesson plans, homework, I love helping with homework, and I am the distraction they need so you can get your tasks done.

$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Forest Hills, NY

Hi! My name is Francie and I just graduated from Williams College. I am a babysitter and tutor, and am also willing to work with animals. I have experience in babysitting elementary and toddler-aged children, but am excited about working with other ages. I also have experience tutoring my younger brother, who had learning difficulties, so am comfortable working with kids who might have difficult relationships with school work. In the past I've dropped kids off and picked them up, done crafts with them, taken them to the playground, read with them, made up dances, and otherwise tried to have them to creative activities. Please let me know if I can give you any more info!

"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."

"Caitlin has been such a lifesaver for our family. We hired Caitlin to help with the after school routine. The kids took to her instantly. She does it all - school pick ups, dinners, baths, lunch making, clean up, etc. She has really helped make a busy time so much easier for us."
