Heather $21 per hour for 1 child

Some qualities that I have that make me a truly great caregiver are that I’m empathetic, patient, reliable, and I have a calm, steady presence about me that helps people feel safe and supported. I am a great listener, I pay attention to others’ needs, and naturally balance compassion with respect for people’s independence and dignity. I have vast experience working with children of all ages from infants to preschoolers to 3rd graders as well as children on the autism spectrum. My talent is that I make people feel safe, seen, & supported.

Yasha $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Yasha! I’m a full-time nanny with 5+ years of experience supporting children from infancy through early adolescence—including two years with Jumpstart’s early literacy program and three years as a private nanny to high-profile families in NYC. I’m CPR, First Aid, and AED certified for infants, children, and adults. I specialize in providing calm, emotionally attuned care for children navigating transition—whether that’s a new sibling, a big move, or loss in the family. My background also includes: School pickups, after-school routines, Bedtime transitions, travel prep, homework help, creative play, and extra-curricular support. I’m also a graduate of NYU with a professional background in film, theatre, and fine art. I love sharing my creative passions with the families I work with—don’t be surprised if your little ones start directing, writing, or starring in their own kitchen musicals. I bring warmth, consistency, and clear communication to every household I join. Currently available for full-time or high-retainer roles in the NYC area. Let’s connect and see if it’s a good fit!

"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."
