Yhanna 3 reviews
$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 9 families in Long Island City, NY

Hi I am a 23 years old with almost 4 years babysitting/nanny experience, full time and part time. I have a lot of experience with newborn to school-age stages. My schedule is very flexible I can do overtimes or stay in if needed, I'm also open to do weekends. I have a little sister who is 7 years old now I was mainly the one who raised her, that's why every now and then I have personal experience. Hoping that we can do set up an interview. Thank you!

“I highly recommend Yhanna as a caregiver. She is extremely professional, prompt and communicative. My 9 year old loved hanging out with her and I'll definitely be using her again. Yhanna is engaging, fun and I had an overall great experience with her. She is also very quick to respond to messages, which is something that I very much appreciated. Thank you Yhanna!”

Lola $25 per hour for 1 child

I was a nanny for the Merizalde family for many years, from 2007 to 2012. I cared for thirteen nieces and nephews who are now professionals, and I also cared for my two daughters, Priscilla and Yuriana. Priscilla has a Bachelor of Science in Biology, and Yuriana is a junior at Kean University. We have two pets: Sparky is the dog, and Mama is the cat. I earned my Associate of Occupational Science and Culinary Arts Certificate in 2001. I am patient, loving, responsible, reliable, and cheerful, with excellent childcare and interpersonal skills and extensive experience caring for children and seniors. I care for children as if they were my own. I like them to feel comfortable around me. I read books, play with them, take them to the park, do activities, and always follow their parents' instructions. From 2014 to 2019, I worked as an Executive Chef in nursing homes. Working with seniors, I learned to understand them better and recognize their needs. I would like to discuss your specific childcare needs. I am bilingual and I am willing to teach Spanish to children if you wish. I have clean driver record. I am able to cook meals, do simply cleaning, do laundry and errands.

I genuinely have a passion for helping others, particularly when it comes to cleaning, organizing, running errands, and maintaining a well-functioning household. I believe in giving my utmost effort and treating each task as if it were being done for my own home or family. Over the years, I’ve gained valuable experience caring for children and providing household services. These experiences have instilled in me patience, responsibility, and a strong sense of reliability. Families consistently describe me as caring, trustworthy, and detail-oriented. I take great pride in providing not only high-quality care but also peace of mind, knowing that your loved ones and your home are in good hands.

"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."
