I've been a childcare provider in New York for 12 years, starting as a daycare employee and later as a long-term babysitter. From 2020 to 2023, I worked as a nanny for a family with a 16-month-old daughter. In 2023, I joined a nanny share and cared for two children aged 6 and 13 months. In 2024, I worked with a couple and their 4-month-old daughter. I also worked with a pre-teen on the autism spectrum part-time. Since May 2025, I've been a nanny for a family with a 23-month-old son, who will start school soon. I'm currently seeking long-term employment. I am passionate about childcare because I love being able to help children learn and grow. Working with children has encouraged me to be more creative and carefree simply by looking at the world from their perspective. The opportunity also gives me a pivotal role in helping to prepare someone for the world and all that is has to offer, which is very rewarding. I speak fluent English and conversational Spanish and minored in Arabic (majored in National Security Studies) at my university for four years. I am certified in CPR and First Aid and am a non-smoker.

Hi Prospective Parent(s)! My name is Fiona and I’m a junior at Colby College studying International Relations, Economics, and Chinese. I’m back home in New York City for summer break and would love to help out any families in need of childcare. I have prior experience caring for toddlers and elementary-aged children and have babysat since high school. I really enjoy spending quality time with the children I care for and getting to know their personalities and quirks. Though I may be younger than some other applicants, I take safety very seriously and will make it my number one priority. Also, I’m still at an age where I can relate to most children :) Notes: fluent in Mandarin, good knowledge with navigating the city and public transportation, no problem with being technology free. Note: I require 50% of the booking for same day cancellations

“Fiona was so great. She was able to help very last minute and walked into a situation with a 10 month old and a 5.5 year old and jumped right in for a seamless night. Would absolutely recommend Fiona! ”

I have over 10 years of experience as a nanny and babysitter working with children ranging from newborn through elementary age. I also have a background in theater and love bringing that creativity and energy into my work with children. I view my role as a nanny as a teacher and believe children learn best through engagement, play, and exploration. I make it a priority to be fully present with the child rather than distracted by my phone. I enjoy taking children to museums, parks, libraries, and other activities that encourage curiosity and social development. I also have experience working in Early Childhood Education with a teaching style closely aligned with Montessori principles. I believe in positive redirection and creating an environment where children feel safe, supported, and encouraged to explore independently. I am bilingual in English and Spanish and would be happy to incorporate Spanish language exposure if interested. Coming from a Latin culture, I enjoy exposing children to different cuisines while always respecting dietary restrictions and family preferences. Depending on the child’s age, I also like involving them in meal prep and hands-on learning experiences. In addition to childcare, I enjoy helping maintain a clean and organized home through tidying, bottle cleaning, and meal prep support. I am currently part of the NYU Teacher Residency program and am seeking part-time work until my program begins in August.

"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."
