Hello, my name is Daisy. I live in Bushwick Brooklyn. I have experience working with children in a daycare. I have an associate degree in bilingual education and am currently pursuing my bachelor’s degree. I love working with kids because I find them inspiring and fun; I am patient, caring, and enjoy making arts and crafts, as well as exploring new places outdoors. Languages are a big part of my life—I speak Spanish and English, and I am currently learning Italian. I have a flexible schedule, allowing me to work during the day or at night, depending on your needs. I am a responsible driver with a valid license and know the city well. Last year, I went on a road trip from New York to California, which helped me become familiar with many places and develop strong driving skills. I would be very excited to have the opportunity to work with you. I am dedicated and eager to help in any way, also I can provide support in cleaning too. Thank you so much for considering my application.

“Daisy is excellent, and our son Nico was very comfortable.”

Booked by 1 family in Jackson Heights, NY

Hello! My name is Viktoria, and I am a graduate student in Clinical Psychology at Teachers College, Columbia University. I have over 5 years of experience caring for children and supporting their development, and I’m passionate about combining creativity, movement, and learning in fun, age-appropriate ways. I have worked with children of all ages, from infants to elementary schoolers. My experience includes babysitting for families and caring for my nieces, serving as a dance assistant for ballet (2[removed]), and currently working as an Assistant Preschool Teacher at Hollingworth Preschool with children ages 3–5. I love engaging kids through movement, dance, reading, outdoor play, and creative arts. I can also support with homework, basic tutoring, and light meal prep. I am fluent in English and Greek and bring a warm, caring, and structured approach. I enjoy spending time with animals and have experience walking, feeding, and playing with dogs and cats. In my family, we’ve cared for 6 dogs and 3 cats, so I’m very comfortable with animals of all personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I am also happy to provide walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of love and attention, whether with small pets or large breeds that shed.

"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."
