Courtney 3 reviews
$22 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 3 families in New York, NY

I'm a 35 year old Australian who has moved to the US with my husband. I have many nieces, nephews and friend's children who I loved to care for back home. I have also been a babysitter/nanny for 4 years in Manhattan and Brooklyn. I am comfortable caring for children of all ages, from infant to pre-teens. I am available all weekdays in the AM at present, as I work with a family I have been with long term in the afternoon. I'm always happy to accommodate your family needs to make life a little easier, including laundry, light housework, etc. I live in Brooklyn but happy to take work in Manhattan also. Look forward to hearing from you and meeting your family. Courtney

“Courtney was fabulous - charming and kind and great fun. Will absolutely work with her again!”

Holland 4 reviews
$28 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Holland, I'm 24, and I am a part time graduate student (Masters in Forensic Psychology) based in Brooklyn, NY. I have a passion for social justice, safety, and the wellbeing of vulnerable individuals in our communities. In my free time I love to bake, read, and spend time with my cat, Bunny! I would describe myself as communicative, patient, and organized. I love to make sure everyone is on the same page at all times and highly value a collaborative approach when working with families and care teams. I have experience working in both private childcare (toddlers through middle school age) and as a mentor/behavior coach at state agencies (elementary through high school ages). I also have experience working with neurodivergent kiddos, including profound (nonverbal) autism and intellectual disabilities. I understand each child has their own strengths and difficulties, and I do my absolute best to meet them where they're at and in a manner that will be supportive to them and their goals. I am very comfortable with home tasks such as cleaning, cooking, organization, and schedule management. I am open to a family assistant role that includes all of the above if necessary (rate increases to reflect responsibilities, at least $5/hr for non-child related cleaning/cooking). As I am in grad school, I'm looking for a family with some flexibility as my schedule is subject to change each semester. I'd love to connect and discuss the specifics of my experience and get to know you. Please let me know if you have any questions!

“Holland is smart, kind, funny, intuitive, organized, and capable. In the several months she has worked for us she has taken excellent care of our young toddler son. He absolutely loves her and so do we. Not only does she make sure he eats enough, drinks water, naps on time, and has lots of fun playtime, but when he is napping she efficiently tidies and restores order to our home. I am particular about the house and she has no problems meeting my high standards. She is an excellent communicator and a quick learner who takes feedback well and integrates it easily. Holland is a gem. We will miss her so much when she leaves our area!”

Nurturing young minds is truly my passion. My positive experiences babysitting sparked my desire to support families by providing reliable care.

"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."
