Lesly 2 reviews
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hello families, my name is Lesly, im 27 years old, I’m from Venezuela, living in New York. I'm an experienced childcare provider with a passion for supporting families and providing a reliable care option. I am patient, and creative, that allows me to engage with children in imaginative play and educational activities. I believe open communication is key, so I regularly update parents about their child's day via their preferred method. I'm comfortable enforcing household rules while prioritizing the parents' approach. My 2 years of experience as an aupair have equipped me to handle up to two children aged 2-14. Besides that, I’ve been babysitting toddlers, and kids since I was 16 years old. I have a college degree in modern languages and First Aid certified. I'm also bilingual in English and Spanish. I enjoy playing outdoor sports, board games, and make crafts with children, I’m also comfortable with pets. I'm excited to bring my skills and enthusiasm to your family and provide a nurturing and stimulating environment for your children.

“Lesly is a great and kind person , we worked together as au pairs for two amazing years. She’s kind and gentle with kids , she’s easy going , patient, she has a great education and she’s happy person who loves her work and life.”

I am local Children's Book author and friend of the Brooklyn community. I recently graduated from the University of Washington with a B.S. in Public Health. During my time at UW, I assisted in Child Developmental research where I studied the impact of social cues on 12mo children. I have a passion for serving vulnerable populations and an understanding of how early life experiences tremendously impact an individual's lifelong wellness. I have over 4 years of experience caring for multiple age groups from Infancy to Middle School in both home and classroom settings. Beyond ensuring that your child is safe and healthy, my goal is to foster a creative and fun environment. I look forward to working with you and your family!

“Brittney is extremely communicative, professional, and warm. She has done great with our little guy who can be tough to please. She is patient and kind and isn’t afraid to ask questions. I would definitely recommend her. ”

Booked by 1 family in Long Island City, NY

Hi there! My name is Madelyn, and I am a performer offering child care and pet sitting services. I'm a fun-loving individual with a background in teaching and theme park princess work. I’ve been babysitting kiddos of various ages for several years now! My responsibilities have spanned anywhere from transporting children to/from school, tutoring, mealtime/bedtime routines, and the occasional game of freeze dance! I am happy to work with any and all animals (I even have experience feeding snakes!) I don’t scare easily!

“Madelyn is an absolute gem. Her communication was excellent and my toddler had the best morning in her care. She easily kept him engaged through creative play, and my son was disappointed when she had to leave! Highly recommend!”

"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."
