Hello! My name is Deandra, and I am a mother of a bright and energetic three-year-old girl. I am currently a prospective nursing student, where I am pursuing my passion for helping others. I offer child care, senior care, and household services with compassion and reliability. As a parent, I understand the importance of creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for children. I have experience caring for newborns, infants, toddlers, and older kids, and I am comfortable managing multiple responsibilities such as tutoring, crafts, and playtime. My journey as a mother has taught me valuable skills in patience, organization, and adaptability. In addition to child care, I am skilled in household tasks including cooking, cleaning, and running errands.

Taylor $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I’m Taylor, a childcare worker and musician/actor here in NYC, offering infant/childcare and pet care! My first experiences taking care of children date back to when I was 14, babysitting the neighborhood children for work experience. Since then, I’ve spent countless summers as a summer camp counselor. When I moved to New York I spent time as a part-time birthday party entertainer for children of all ages, worked as a Toddler’s Assistant in private schools, and continue to nanny full time as well as substitute teach for all ages of children! I am a NY licensed driver with a clean record, able to transport your kiddos to and from school + all sorts of different activities. I love to incorporate music into childcare routines with lots of songs and encouraging words. (I also offer guitar lessons for elementary children and older). I’m a good cook and love to care for pets as well (dogs, cats, anything!)

Sydney $20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Ridgewood, NY

Hello! My name is Sydney and I am an actor originally from Atlantic City, New Jersey! I have been caring for children ever since I was 14 and my parents would let me watch the children in our neighborhood for some extra change. Since then, I have cared for children of all age groups, with my most recent full time nanny position including caring for 3 boys ages 9-14. This included cooking for them daily, doing their laundry, and making sure they stayed on top of school work. In addition to caring for children, I have a strong background in teaching for them as well. I am currently finishing out the school year as a full time Substitute Teacher for the NYC Department of Education, and I have many years of counselor in training experience from my various summer camps growing up. Always available for light household chores, caring for animals, and running errands as well. Children make my heart glow, and I would love to meet yours! Feel free to reach out,

"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."
