Booked by 1 family in Mount Vernon, NY

Hi! My name is Jessica. I have over 15 years experience with nannying/babysitting as well as children with disabilities. I have been taking care of dogs and cats my entire life (34 years). I’m a very kind, responsible, reliable, positive, hard working, compassionate, patient, calm, caring, organized, clean, tidy, adaptable, easy going, friendly, rational decision maker, friendly and proactive professional who excels at helping others and taking care of households. I began babysitting at 14 and began nannying at the age of 18 through present. I’ve worked with infants, kids, and teens as well as individuals with disabilities of all ages (an area I thrive in). Nannying/babysitting/helping others/ taking care of households comes naturally to me and I absolutely excel in these fields of work with a positive and “go getter” attitude! When I am babysitting/nannying/taking care of pets/households that is my main focus and I do not let anything get in the way of accomplishing my goals or work. Thank you for your consideration and I look forward to hearing from you!

“Loved her! She showed up on time, was super pleasant and Raven loved her. They had ice cream and went to the park. She sent me pix and kept me updated which was great. Would recommend her again ! ”

“Having Dani watch Lilah was an absolute joy. My daughter adored her. I'm a single mom with a 10 year old who has to hustle in LA so I really needed an attentive and loving sitter and Dani answered that call. Was great at communication, very warm, patient, and attentive to my little girl. There was even an occasion that a shoot ran late and I had to have Dani stay after hours and she was so understanding and accommodating. A literal lifesaver. I can tell she loves what she does. I really think Lilah built such an attachment to her!”

Booked by 4 families in Mount Vernon, NY

Hello my name is Persia and I currently live in NYC. I’m offering my services for Childcare and Pets. I love children and animals very much and have always found that they are a joy to be around and work with. While my experience with newborn is slim to none, fortunately I have years of experience with watching children and pets. My experience started at 15 with babysitter and throughout the years me and my family have been very trusted caretakers of pets. I can cook, clean, and take care of any other house hold chores. I can also commute To the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, and Queens. Happy to help anyone in need!

“Persia, Is pretty quick at learning. And responsive. I wish I had more time with her. But I think she will be a great fit with any family. She helped with my 3 boys and followed instructions to keep tonthe routine we had set.”

Raccia Skye 1 review
$22 per hour for 1 child

Nice to meet you! I’m a 26-year-old with a wealth of experience in childcare and informal education. I have worked as a sitter/nanny for several families with school-aged kids (mostly 4-15) over the past 10 years, including children with disabilities. I am a former sleepaway camp counselor, lifeguard, and swim instructor. I have also tutored elementary students in English while abroad and worked as a teaching assistant in my local synagogue throughout high school, though I am not a particularly religious person. Some of my interests include arts and crafts, the outdoors, board games, reading and writing, cooking, and baking. I am also a cat owner and grew up with dogs so I am more than happy to help out with pets! My affect has been described as warm, wise, and practical, and I pride myself on my strong ability to place myself in another person’s shoes, as well as being a very responsible problem solver who is quick on their feet. I have also worked in food service, which can attest to my ability to work with a positive attitude even in fast-paced, high-stress situations, though caring for your child/ren will likely be much less stressful than working in a New York City restaurant! I would love the opportunity to talk and meet your family to see if we would be a good fit for one another’s needs and preferences.

“Raccia is a detail-oriented, thoughtful, careful, and punctual sitter. They have solid communication skills and if anything in my directives aren't clear, they ask thoughtful clarifying questions. Raccia offers their ideas and input when needed or requested. They are great with follow-through and have been extremely consistent and reliable. Both of my kids really like and appreciate Raccia. I do as well. :)”

"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."
