Donshea $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi I'm Donshea! :) I've been a caregiver, tutor, and personal assistant for about 5 years now, I have experiences with almost all ages. Aside from caregiving I am a middle school teacher and training to be a medical assistant. I graduated from the University of Mount Saint Vincent a private institution in Riverdale, NY, last year with my B. A. in History and General Science. I am currently pre-med and plan on attending medical school in about 2-3 years. Aside from medicine and teaching, I have been an actress for over 20 years. I run two small businesses and I'm a singer-songwriter. I love being creative and ambitious and working with people of all ages. I can't wait to meet your family! In my spare time, I like to read books, cook or bake a new recipe, figure skate, roller skate, play my instruments, screen write, watch tv, and listen to music. I am able to work weekends! *MY RATES ARE ADJUSTABLE* Fun fact: I have two turtles and I'm an Emmy-nominated actress!

Booked by 1 family in Jamaica, NY

Hi! I’m Anyla, a recent college graduate living in Park Slope, Brooklyn. I graduated with a pre-health background and am a responsible, energetic, and caring person who genuinely enjoys working with children and helping families feel supported. I also have experience working with children as a counselor through a New York Times program, where I was responsible for engaging with and supporting children in a structured environment. I’m dependable, organized, patient, and comfortable balancing playtime, learning activities, meals, routines, and keeping children engaged throughout the day. I love staying active, spending time outdoors, reading, and exploring creative activities, and I’d be happy to incorporate those interests into my time with your children. I also have extensive personal travel experience and previously lived abroad in Barcelona, Spain. Living internationally helped me become highly independent, adaptable, and comfortable navigating new places and environments. I would be comfortable accompanying a family while traveling and helping maintain a child’s routine while away from home.

“Anyla was great with my 7yo in our interview and I am happy to hire her for afterschool pickups!!”

Hi My name is Pasika. You can call me Bee. I have been taking care of children for 15 years, college educated with B. S. Degree in Major Nutrition. I have experience caring all ages of children, changing diapers, bottle feeding, making meals and giving baths. I'm motivated and proactive in childcare, household arrangement; arrange activities, play dates, healthy food preparation, etc. I maintain current Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED certification from American Red Cross. I am non-smoker/drinker. I am reliable, responsible, creative, educated, fun, hard working, care and have infant experience. Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to hearing from you soon. PS. I'm fully vaccinated and boosted!

“We love Bee! We found Bee through UrbanSitter, we originally hired her to watch/care for our son several times for date nights. Soon afterwards, we hired her as our part-time nanny! Although Bee is a bit quiet initially, she lights up with children. Our son (now 10-months old) took to her immediately. Bee is always very patient and fun with him, and I often find them laughing, “chatting,” and playing together. Bee is very sweet with our older dog as well, she is always on time, and great with sticking to the baby’s daily schedule (feedings, nap time, going for walks, etc.). We provided detailed instructions for caring for our son (I.e. he has eczema and needs cream applied regularly and diapers changed very frequently) and she has been meticulous in following any instructions. I would highly recommend her to anyone, especially to parents with infants, babies, and small children.”

Hi! I’m Josee—a caring, dependable sitter with 10+ years of experience working with children from newborns to school-age, including those with special needs. I am also Infant CPR and First Aid Certified. I’ve worked as a daycare assistant, preschool assistant, tutor, camp counselor, and elementary special education teacher, so I’m comfortable balancing both fun and structure. I’m especially confident with infant care, routines (feeding, naps, bedtime), and creating a safe, engaging environment for kids of all ages. I’m patient, attentive, and reliable, and I communicate clearly so parents always feel at ease. I’m also happy to help with light household tasks like meal prep, tidying, and errands to support your family’s routine. Looking forward to connecting with your family!

“I appreciate how thoughtful Josee is. She shared updates throughout which provided so much 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."
