Shira $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Shira, and I’m currently a student at Tel Aviv University. I’m spending the summer in New York City visiting home and am available for babysitting. I have over 8 years of childcare experience, having started babysitting at age 13. I’ve cared for children of all ages—from infants to preteens—including experience with special needs. I’ve looked after up to four boys under the age of ten at once, as well as a one-year-old and a six-year-old with developmental challenges. I’m also comfortable with pets, especially dogs. In addition to babysitting, I have experience tutoring mathematics and am happy to help with homework or schoolwork support.

"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."
