A nurturing, responsible, and energetic nanny with over 5 years of experience caring for children from newborn through elementary age is seeking a full-time position. I am currently pursuing my degree in Elementary Education and bring a strong passion for helping children grow, learn, and develop through play, reading, structured routines, and creative activities. I aim to create a safe, supportive, and engaging environment where children feel comfortable, confident, and cared for.

“We had a wonderful experience with Libby. My son absolutely loved her as a babysitter. She was playful, attentive, and genuinely caring, and she was very responsive to his needs. Libby was always punctual, often arriving early, and consistently reliable when we needed her. She engaged my son thoughtfully and made him feel comfortable and happy. We will absolutely be rebooking her and highly recommend her to other families.”

I’ve been working with childcare since very young, I have experience with kids at ages from newborn to 7yo, eventually caring for older kids too. Right now I have full time week job where I take care of a 15 months old boy. I have a Nurse degree back home (Brazil) and I was specializing to be a Pediatrician Nurse when I joined the Au Pair program. I'm now applying to be an a teacher for the little ones because I found that to be much more meaningful for where I see myself completely satisfied in my professional life. With this nurse background, I have immense knowledge about children's development and how to work with them in every stage of their lives, plus as a personal curiosity I was always very into Child education and parenting studies, and I've done tons of specializations to fill up my curiosity but also to put into a better-qualified position when working with kids. Also, I do have some beliefs related to child education that would be a better fit for me to work with a family with the same approach. I believe in non-violent communication, and positive psychology education, also I have some interest in the Montessori philosophy.

Arianna 1 review

Hi! My name is Arianna, and I recently graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology. I am offering child care services. I have been working with children since I was 16 years old, caring for ages ranging from 3 months and older. My experience includes caring for infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. In addition to my childcare experience, I continuously volunteer with children at my church, caring for and engaging with infants, toddlers, and older children. Most recently, I worked with my professor’s 5-year-old child for a semester, where I assisted with daily care, activities, homework, and supervision. I enjoy creating a safe, engaging, and supportive environment for children to learn and grow. In addition to child care, I can assist with household tasks such as light cleaning, organizing, meal preparation, and running errands. I am CPR certified and currently in the process of obtaining my EMT license, which has further strengthened my commitment to safety and caregiving. I am reliable, compassionate, and dedicated to providing excellent care, and I look forward to supporting your family’s needs. 😊😊

“Arianna has worked with my family a few times in the past. She is a responsible, considerate babysitter. My children were very fond of her. She was especially proficient with my 7 month old during the more hectic holiday seasons, and my toddler was absolutely smitten with her. She always kept them occupied and engaged with healthy activities, such as, taking them to the park or interactive exhibits around the city. Her experience as a babysitter for many years really shined through with the way she managed and took care of the kids and their environment. I never had to worry about them being glued to their screens whenever she was around! She was also very open to communication and feedback from my husband and I, though we rarely had anything but praise to give her. She was always professional, on time, and very reliable, and trustworthy. I would definitely recommend her to other parents in need of childcare!!”

Hi - My name is Glory and I'm currently a graduate student at Columbia. I am offering child care, senior care, and household services. I love being a babysitter and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids (including twins!) since I was 15 years old. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts, tutoring, and even dance lessons. I also work as a household assistant and can clean and run errands. I have been a caretaker for my own grandparents and am comfortable with senior care. I can cook, drive to appointments, or do other tasks. (I am also a great bridge partner!) I am happy to work with families with dogs.

“I highly recommend Glory as a babysitter. She has worked with my family in the past and consistently demonstrated a high level of responsibility, warmth, and professionalism. Glory is incredibly attentive and patient with children. She is able to create a calm, engaging environment while also maintaining structure and safety. Whether it’s helping with routines, organizing activities, or simply being present and attentive, she brings a thoughtful and caring approach to everything she does. What stands out most is her reliability and communication. She is always punctual, responsive, and proactive in updating me, which gave me a strong sense of trust and peace of mind.”

"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."
