Booked by 8 families in New York, NY

Hello everyone, I began my career as a Montessori preschool teacher, where I developed a deep understanding of child-led learning, developmental milestones, and creating enriching, structured environments. In 2019, I transitioned into professional nannying, bringing my classroom expertise into private homes to provide personalized, high-quality care. My approach blends Montessori principles with attentive, individualized care ensuring each child feels secure, confident, and inspired to explore their world. I am warm, patient, and caring, always valuing safety, respect, and open communication. I strive to communicate clearly and kindly, fostering an atmosphere of trust. When working with children, I like to use positive reinforcement, simple explanations, and consistent follow through to create a supportive environment. With parents, I remain organized and transparent, making sure everyone feels heard and valued.

“She was wonderful. Very patient with our toddler and he had so much fun with Miriam.”

Hi, I’m Madeline. I’m new to Urbansitter and I’m offering childcare, pet care and household services. I grew up babysitting for my family and neighbors often as a teenager. I adore working with kids and spending time with them. In more recent years I’ve been working in DOE schools as a substitute teacher. Primarily in East Flatbush with elementary aged students. Over the past two years I had the pleasure of teaching with a co-teacher in one classroom. This has given me the opportunity to better see and facilitate growth in my students and create genuine bonds. I also have experience teaching art classes and afterschool classes through a local studio where my responsibilities included lesson planning, tutoring, and behavioral management. I love taking kids outside, swimming if they enjoy that, baking and doing art projects. I grew up with pets, dogs, cats, rabbits, etc. I can also cook, clean and run errands as per your needs. I am CPR/AED certified.

“Madeline cared for three of our children for two hours. She remained calm and capable during some very challenging behavior and thoughtfully checked with me about how I wanted her to respond. Her teaching experience was evident, and she was also personable and lovely to have around. I would definitely hire her again.”

Booked by 3 families in New York, NY

My name Is Alissah . I am a nursing student, currently finishing my BSN. I speak English and French. Some major personality traits that I have are that I am a good listener, I love to make people laugh, I love hosting play dates and expanding my creativity through arts and crafts. I love to sing, paint and read. As a nursing student I have gained some skills such as organization, observation, communication. One of the great trait that I have is patience as I have gotten to deal with kids of all ages in the hospital and tend to their needs. I would love to continue being a caregiver to kids because I can bring those skills and personality traits to light by helping them expand their creativity, provide them with an energetic and fun environment, and tends to their needs. I place a high value on relationships, whether they be with my family, friends, or coworkers. The most satisfying aspect of my work is knowing that I've had a beneficial influence in addition to developing a relationship with the children.

“I will be hiring Alissah again and again! She did so well with my 17-month old son and she was so very worth it. She has a great energy about her from the moment she came in! ”

Booked by 6 families in New York, NY

I have been babysitting for over 10 years! I have been a counselor in training at the YMCA, helping in the summer program with specifically children from ages 5-13. This had included for me to work from 9 to 5, and even staying overtime if my advisors needed the extra help. I was consistently, and not only traveling with the children around the building, but outdoors as well. I made sure that they were safe, playing respectfully, doing their planned activities and getting their lunch. Despite the basics, I focused on child development when working with the children, making sure to be understanding of their emotions as that was very important to me. I had to teach them about consequences to their actions with enforcing discipline, yet maintaining a respectful manner. I allowed for them to understand the importance of empathy and apologizing. This allowed for me to understand at the time what it meant to be a leader, and have proper communication skills I Love Children!

"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."
