I worked at an elementary school for 2 years as an aftercare counselor for groups of 5-9 year olds. My responsibilities have included managing class field trips, crafts, tutoring, and always ensuring safety.

Diana $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Ridgewood, NY

I am a dedicated career nanny and Certified Infant Care Specialist with over 15 years of experience providing exceptional care for children from newborn through age 12. I hold a Diploma in Child Day Care Management and maintain current certifications in First Aid, CPR/AED, Preventive Healthcare for the Newborn, and Child Nutrition & Cooking. I also have additional clinical training as a Pediatric, Geriatric, Phlebotomy, and Cardiology Assistant. Families describe me as energetic, trustworthy, and reliable. I create structured, nurturing environments and engage children through singing, reading, sports, park outings, and hands-on educational activities tailored to their developmental stage. My goal is to work full-time long-term where I can provide exceptional care. I am always interested in giving the best childcare possible because the child's safety and well-being are what matter most. I am looking to work with a family that values trust and appreciates me caring for their infant/ child/ children. So, I'm searching for the right family to work with, where communication will not be a problem, and with whom I feel comfortable working. All my vaccinations are updated. Reference available upon request.

Taylor $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi there, my name is Taylor! I am a rising junior at the Clive Davis Institute of Recorded Music at New York University, and I have extensive experience in childcare. Last summer, I worked as a dance and movement teacher for campers ages (3-13) at Twin Spring Farm’s Day Camp & Preschool in Ambler, Pennsylvania. I’ve also served as a camp counselor at various theater camps and regularly babysit for families in the Abington, PA area and Brooklyn, New York. Growing up in a family of educators—my mother is an elementary school teacher—has shaped my approach to working with children and strengthened my empathy, patience, and communication skills. I am available all summer and would love to lend a helping hand with household tasks, animal care, and childcare!

Brenda $28 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I'm Brenda! I am a dedicated and compassionate 30-year-old nanny with 5 years of hands-on childcare experience. I am committed to providing a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment while supporting children’s developmental needs and maintaining clear communication with families. I have somewhat of a Montessori approach and aim to help children feel confident in their abilities through fostering growth and independence. I genuinely enjoy being with children and promoting their enrichment through classes, time spent outdoors, and collaboration with parents. I love to play, read, go to museums and on playdates, and keep the children involved and engaged. I have experience caring for up to three children at one time and have provided full-time care for a child as young as three months old and as old as ten years.

"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."
