Amy $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! I’m Amy, a warm and dependable caregiver with 10 years of babysitting and nanny experience. I’ve worked with children in after-school programs at the YMCA and Harlem Children’s Zone and I’ve also worked as a CNA. I’m currently studying Communications. I love finding activities each child enjoys, whether that’s crafts, reading, outdoor play or homework help. I can help with school pickup, meals and bedtime routines too. I’ll follow your family’s routine to keep you updated and make sure your child feels safe and cared for. I’m new to UrbanSitter but I’ve worked with families through other childcare sites and can provide references upon request. I’m available to start immediately, with weekday afternoon availability and open availability on some weekends!

Kimora $20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Long Island City, NY

Hey there! My name is Kimora, I am an aspiring teacher in the making with both classroom and personal experience fostering children's personal growth and curiosity. I have been working in education and Childcare for roughly 5yrs mainly between the Pre-Kindergarten and 3rd Grade range. Meaning I am equipped with age appropriate games and crafts. I am also an intermediate artist and baker so if there are any future creative in this world I would love to nurture that as I do the kids in my own family. Small note if you've made it this far; I do not do crazy colors like my profile picture very often, maybe twice a year. But I wanted to be transparent with that in case my service with your family becomes more permanent in a year.

"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."
