Catherine $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I am Catherine. I am new to this app and am looking to work with children again. I was a preschool teacher in the 2[removed] school year and I love that age group. My age range as a teacher was 6 months to 5 years old. I also worked at summer camps with children ages 6 to 15. I am CPR certified and have my driver's license in case that’s needed. I love drawing and making crafts. I also am learning to roller skate if your child enjoys going to the skatepark! Would love to meet your family! 🐞🌤️🛝

Louise $25 per hour for 1 child

My name is Louise, and I offer senior care, child care, and household support. Caring for others has always been a meaningful part of my life. I have over 30 years of experience providing child care for families since coming to this country, in addition to raising three daughters of my own. My child care responsibilities have included school pick-up and drop-off, homework help, arts and crafts, and accompanying children to medical and therapy appointments. I also assist with cooking, cleaning, errands, and general household needs. Along with child care, I have experience providing compassionate care for elderly individuals. Most recently, I cared for an elderly woman living with dementia, supporting her daily needs and ensuring her comfort and safety. I take pride in being dependable, patient, and attentive, and I truly enjoy helping families and individuals feel supported.

$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Jamaica, NY

Hi My name is Fania, and I’m a caring, patient, responsible, and dependable person who genuinely enjoys helping and caring for others. I have about 2 years of experience caring for children from 2 months to 13 years old. I truly enjoy working with children and spending time with them. I like playing with them, talking with them, reading books, helping with homework, preparing simple meals and snacks, and finding fun and age-appropriate activities to keep them engaged. I also have experience caring for adults through agencies and I have a Home Health Aide (HHA) certificate. My experience has given me the opportunity to work with different families and provide support based on each person’s individual needs. I’m comfortable helping with daily routines, providing companionship, and making sure the person I’m caring for feels safe, comfortable, and respected. Although I really enjoy working with children, I’m also open to caregiving opportunities with adults and families who need a reliable and caring person to help them. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your loved ones. I take my responsibilities seriously, I’m attentive to their needs, and I always treat the people I care for with patience, kindness, and respect. I would love the opportunity to support your family, whether you’re looking for childcare, adult care, or general caregiving support. I look forward to meeting you and learning more about how I can help! ❤️

Guin $23 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Guinevere (or Guin for short), and I am a 22 recent graduate of the George Washington University. I graduated magna cum laude with two BA's in Journalism and Photography. I'm originally from Chicago and currently live in Brooklyn, NY. I have been babysitting since I was 13 years old and love working with kids. I was an overnight camp counselor for 2 years in Newaygo, MI and learned so much from that experience. As someone who grew up with sleep anxiety as a kid, I learned how to calm kids down from panic attacks and use different soothing techniques to help them get to bed. After my time at Newaygo, I worked as a day camp counselor and art teacher at Lillstreet Arts Center in Chicago for 4 years. I have a background in art, singing, theatre, dance and more. I would love to do crafts with your kiddos and help them find new ways to express themselves! I would be happy to teach music to any little one who has an interest in learning as well :) I love to cook (and I'd like to say I'm pretty good) and would be happy to make meals for your family. I love pets of all kinds and would be very open to dog walking. I look forward to making connections with your lovely families/communities! Please feel free to reach out with any questions.

Shanell $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Shanell, and I’m a caring, reliable, and energetic sitter with over 4 years of experience working with children of all ages. I’ve had the opportunity to work closely with kids in both personal and professional settings. I’ve cared for my younger cousins and other children, which helped me naturally build patience, creativity, and strong communication skills. Professionally, I spent 3 years working as an afterschool teacher and summer camp counselor, where I supervised groups of children, planned fun and engaging activities, and made sure every child felt safe and included. I also worked for 1 year as a teacher’s aide, supporting classroom instruction and helping students from kindergarten through middle school with their learning and daily routines. I genuinely enjoy being around kids and creating a positive, fun, and structured environment for them. Whether it’s helping with homework, organizing activities, or just making sure they’re safe and happy, I always bring a responsible and attentive approach. I look forward to connecting with families and providing trustworthy loving care for your children

"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."
