Hello! My name is Iveliz, and caring for others has always been a meaningful part of my life. As a mother, I raised my son, who is now 14 years old, and have spent many years providing loving, attentive care to children of all ages. Most recently, I cared for a 6 month old and previously provided part-time care for family members' children ages 2, 4, and 9. In addition to childcare, I have extensive experience caring for seniors and individuals with disabilities. For several years, I served as a primary caregiver for my father, assisting him with daily living needs, companionship, meal preparation, transportation, light housekeeping, and emotional support. I am available for: • Infant and child care • After-school care • Date night babysitting • Light housekeeping and organization • Meal preparation • Senior companionship and non-medical assistance • Transportation and errands (if needed) Families describe me as patient, nurturing, dependable, and trustworthy. I genuinely enjoy helping others and creating a safe, caring environment where children and seniors feel comfortable, respected, and valued. I look forward to helping your family!

Amanda $26 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Amanda, I’m 27 and live in NYC. I’ve been babysitting since high school and have experience with kids of all ages, including a 3-month-old. I’ve watched up to four kids at once and have nannied for two boys and two elementary school girls. My experience includes school pickup, helping with daily routines and activities, and spending time with the kids throughout the day. I’m always up for anything from playing sports to doing arts and crafts, playing board games, or joining in on whatever they’re interested in. I’m also happy to help with homework, cooking, running errands, or anything else needed around the house. Outside of childcare, I enjoy running, tennis, soccer, reading, watching movies, cooking, and baking.

Hello ! My name is Vi, I'm an artist offering childcare, seniorcare, petcare, and household services. I love spending time with kids, I even used to be one myself ! I taught children ages 3-8 various sports through my hometown's parks and recreation department for 2 years. I'm happy to tutor, make art, chaperone, and more. I offer household services as well, including cooking, cleaning, errands, and so on. I have a drivers license but don't have a car. When it comes to seniors, I've taken care of my grandmother bringing her to appointments and making sure she's fed and happy. I'm skilled at technology teaching/troubleshooting, and I love listening to people talk. I adore all pets and have a cat of my own, I just ask for clear instructions and I'm more than happy to accommodate (that goes for everything).

"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."
