Beatriz $40 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Oakland Gardens, NY

With over six years of teaching experience, I bring a deep understanding of child development and education to every caregiving role. Most recently, I taught second grade at Packer Collegiate Institute in Brooklyn, following several years of teaching in San Francisco public schools. I hold a Master’s in Elementary Education and a Bachelor’s in Psychology, which together give me a well-rounded perspective on the academic, emotional, and developmental needs of children, especially in the elementary age range. My approach to caregiving is rooted in empathy, consistency, and clear communication. I create environments where children feel safe, seen, and encouraged to be curious. I’m attentive to their individual personalities and needs, and I value the importance of both structure and play. My background allows me to support children not only in their day-to-day routines but also in fostering their confidence, independence, and emotional well-being.

Nardalina 1 review
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Nardalina, I have a genuine passion for working with children. My journey began in high school when I started babysitting for close friends and family. What began as a side hustle quickly grew into something I truly loved. During my freshman year of college, my mother opened a family daycare, where I worked part-time caring for children ranging from 3 months to 12 years old. During this time I achieved my OCFS certification and CPR certification. Over the years, I've gained hands-on experience in nurturing, engaging, and supporting children through every stage of early development. I've cherished every moment-from watching little ones hit their milestones to building the kind of bond that lasts long after the day ends. It brings me so much joy to create a safe, fun, and loving environment where kids can thrive. I would love to meet your little ones and make meaningful memories with them!

“We had the absolute pleasure of having Nardalina care for our three children over the past two years, and she has truly become a part of our family. From the very beginning, Nardalina showed incredible warmth, patience, and a natural ability to connect with each of our kids. She created a loving, safe, and structured environment where our children thrived. Whether it was school runs, preparing meals, helping with homework, or simply playing and engaging with them, she handled every task with professionalism, care, and joy. Nardalina is exceptionally reliable, always punctual, and someone we trusted completely. She communicated clearly with us every day, keeping us informed and always putting the kids' well-being first. Our children absolutely adore her, and we were constantly impressed by how much love and attention she gave them. We are beyond grateful for everything Nardalina has done for our family. Any family would be incredibly lucky to have her as their nanny. We cannot recommend her highly enough!”

Kristel Ann $35 per hour for 1 child

I am excited about the opportunity to become a full-time or part-time nanny for your family. I have over 7+ years of hands-on experience working with busy parents and their children providing dependable childcare while also helping managing the household to make everyday life easier for families. I completed my certification in 2021 for LTSS (Long-Term Services and Support) in Montreal, Canada. I speak both English and French fluently. I moved here from Canada over a year ago. I currently live in Brooklyn, NY. I also have over 5+ years of experience working as an orderly (PAB) for seniors privately, within retirement homes and CHSLDs. I take pride in supporting children’s healthy development, academic success, and overall well-being. Communication with parents is very important to me. I make it a priority to check in with parents regularly to discuss their children’s progress, development, any concerns or expectations. I am available Monday to Friday (weekends in urgent cases only). I am able to complete school drop-offs and picks-ups, if it’s within walking distance of your home. I would love the opportunity to bring my experience, reliability, organization, and genuine care for children to your family. I’m happy to provide references, and my phone number upon request. I recently discovered urbansitter, prior to this, I was placed directly with families by an agency in Astoria. I would be happy to provide their contact info as they also have all my references on file. Thank you for considering me. I hope to hear from you soon! 😊

"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."
