Victoria $28 per hour for 1 child

My name is Tori, and I have worked with children in many different capacities for 15 years. I started coaching gymnastics when I was in highschool and have never quit teaching or caring for children since then. I began as a gymnastics and dance teacher and then started babysitting regularly while dancing professionally. I then became a teacher at a tutoring center that assisted neurodivergent children with school activities and development, I worked my way up to lead teacher and worked closely with a mentor to expand my knowledge in childhood development and teaching critical reading skills. When I moved to New York I became a part time nanny and began teaching gymnastics and dance again, in private studios. I also taught in afterschool programming for dance and gymnastics and theater. While in New York I have been the director's assistant for a children's music company, I have taught, and I have most recently been a full-time nanny. I am compassionate, able to adjust to different setting quickly, and my experience enables me to work with many different children and families. I love to create a warm, creative, and safe environment for children to thrive in! I have experience with children from 2 months to 17 years of age.

Amy $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! I’m Amy, a warm and dependable caregiver with 10 years of babysitting and nanny experience. I’ve worked with children in after-school programs at the YMCA and Harlem Children’s Zone and I’ve also worked as a CNA. I’m currently studying Communications. I love finding activities each child enjoys, whether that’s crafts, reading, outdoor play or homework help. I can help with school pickup, meals and bedtime routines too. I’ll follow your family’s routine to keep you updated and make sure your child feels safe and cared for. I’m new to UrbanSitter but I’ve worked with families through other childcare sites and can provide references upon request. I’m available to start immediately, with weekday afternoon availability and open availability on some weekends!

"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."
