Hannah $40 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Hannah! I’m 19 years old and graduated high school in 2025. I’m starting college this year and will be taking my coursework remotely, which gives me an extremely flexible schedule and allows me to be very available to a family. I’m currently looking for a live in nanny/family assistant position I genuinely enjoy being around children and love getting to know their individual personalities, interests, and hobbies so I can create activities they truly enjoy. I’m happy to help with routines, homework, meals, playtime, bedtime, reading, creative activities, outdoor time, and keeping their spaces organized. I’m also happy to support the household while children are at school by handling laundry, organizing bedrooms and play areas, tidying, grocery shopping, errands, meal prep, and preparing things for their return from school. I’m proactive and like to notice what needs to be done without waiting to be asked. Because I’ll be studying remotely, I have an extremely flexible schedule and am available for family travel, overnight care, and schedule changes with advance notice. I’m not currently driving yet, but I’m very comfortable being active and walking longer distances, as well as using public transportation. I’m also willing to arrange and cover my own transportation when needed. I understand the importance of privacy, discretion, and respecting each family’s home and routines. I take their trust seriously and want parents to feel confident knowing their children are cared for. I’m dependable, eager to learn, and committed to becoming someone a family can truly rely on. I’m looking for a long-term role where I can become a trusted part of their routine. If you’re looking for more than just a babysitter, someone who can support your children while also helping your household run smoothly I’d love to connect.

$22 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Jackson Heights, NY

Hi! My name is Fatoumata (Fah-tu-mah-tah), and I’m a New York native who loves working with children and getting to know new families. I’ve been babysitting for about nine years and have experience caring for children of different ages and needs. I also have professional experience as a Home Health Aide and Personal Care Assistant, which has helped me develop strong skills in patience, communication, responsibility, and providing attentive care. I enjoy reading—especially reading to kids—going on walks, spending time outdoors, listening to podcasts, and trying new things. As a New Yorker, I’m always excited to explore different parts of the city, and I love finding fun, age-appropriate activities and adventures to enjoy with the kids I care for. I’m also comfortable helping with light cooking, tidying up, and other household tasks related to childcare. I’m happy to discuss additional ways I can support your family. I’m comfortable working with pets.

“Fatou is sweet and personable. My mother felt very comfortable with her and I appreciate that. She was on time and is very responsive. As a native New Yorker, I didn’t have to explain where things were which was great. Will definitely repeat ”

Booked by 2 families in Jackson Heights, NY

Hello! My name is Angie, I am CPR certified, and I offer childcare :) I’ve been taking care of children for +5 years, beginning with family members and moving on to the children of friends, and eventually in a professional setting via nannying, Sunday school teaching, and daycare work. Over the years, the varying experiences of different families, cultures, and backgrounds have aided in the development of my career in childcare. Through them, I've been able to experience care for so many wonderful individuals, including special needs kids+adults with autism, Parkinson’s, physical handicap, and Down syndrome. I've taken care of children ranging from newborn to preteen, and it’s been such a wonderful, diverse experience that I truly love from the bottom of my heart! I'm hoping to return to college next year to continue my studies in early childhood education, so this line of work really motivates me :) Thank you for taking the time to read, I hope we can connect soon!

"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."
