Booked by 10 families in Jackson Heights, NY

Hi, my name is Bahara, I am 57 yo. I’m an engineer by education, but I’ve been a professional nanny for 15 years. My love for children led me to work I enjoy, and what brings me true pleasure. I have a wealth of experience raising children and helping them develop, as evidenced by the numerous positive recommendations. I believe that the main joy in working as nanny is the opportunity to share a piece of my soul and to observe kids’ growth. I like working with kids an early age, teaching them new and unknown skills: how to crawl, sit, use a potty, take their first steps, read books and sing songs. Also, I like to spend a time outdoors with kids, which allows us to explore the world: play active games, socialize with other kids and develop new skills. My years of experience and the love I am willing to share allow me to find a common language with little ones and their parents I constantly work for improving my skills in pedagogy by reading articles and literature. Kindness, love, honesty and openness, responsibility and reliability are inherent qualities of my personality, which children immediately feel. In addition, I have no bad habits, I am fully vaccinated from Covid and get a flu shot every year. I have a valid driver license and reliable car. I will be glad to meet and greet new kids and their families. Sincerely Bahara Hasanova

“Bahara was such a delight. She was so responsive leading up to the booking and was so amazing with my son. We felt so comfortable leaving him with her. She came on time and was so attentive the moment she stepped in the door. I’d recommend her in a heartbeat and can’t wait for her to hang out with my son again. ”

Booked by 6 families in Jackson Heights, NY

I’m a dedicated and experienced nanny with over 12 years of hands-on experience caring for infants, toddlers, and young children. My background includes both private childcare and working as a paraprofessional educator, which gives me a strong understanding of child development, behavior management, and creating supportive, structured environments where children can thrive. I specialize in caring for infants and toddlers, including newborns, and I’m confident managing routines such as feeding, sleep training, and developmental play. I have experience caring for multiple children at once, including twins, and I’m comfortable balancing different needs while maintaining a calm, organized environment. I also have experience supporting children with varying developmental needs, including those with autism, and I take a patient, individualized approach to every child I work with. I enjoy creating engaging, age-appropriate activities that support learning through play, including sensory play, early literacy, art projects, and outdoor exploration. With my background in studio art, I love incorporating creativity into daily routines to keep children stimulated and excited to learn. Safety is always my top priority. I am First Aid certified, attentive to dietary restrictions and allergies, and experienced in maintaining clean, organized spaces. I’m also reliable with transportation, punctual, and respectful of each family’s routines, parenting style, and household expectations.

Booked by 10 families in Jackson Heights, NY

Hi there! I’m Debra, a sitter who genuinely enjoys spending time with kids. I’ve cared for children across ages, from infants to school-aged, and I like building little routines and activities that keep them engaged: crafts, reading, a trip to the park or library, or just good play. I offer babysitting and childcare, plus help with light household tasks like tidying and organizing as I go. I’m comfortable with the full range of day-to-day care: feeding, naps, bedtime routines, and homework help for older kids. I bring a calm, dependable presence and pay attention to the details. I’m reliable, communicative, and easy to coordinate with. I currently get around by transit, so I’m a great fit for families who don’t need driving. Outside of sitting, I love reading, singing, traveling, and a bit of interior decorating, interests I happily fold into creative time with kids. I’d love to meet your family and learn how I can help. Thanks for considering me!

"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."
