Hi, I’m Madeline. I’m new to Urbansitter and I’m offering childcare, pet care and household services. I grew up babysitting for my family and neighbors often as a teenager. I adore working with kids and spending time with them. In more recent years I’ve been working in DOE schools as a substitute teacher. Primarily in East Flatbush with elementary aged students. Over the past two years I had the pleasure of teaching with a co-teacher in one classroom. This has given me the opportunity to better see and facilitate growth in my students and create genuine bonds. I also have experience teaching art classes and afterschool classes through a local studio where my responsibilities included lesson planning, tutoring, and behavioral management. I love taking kids outside, swimming if they enjoy that, baking and doing art projects. I grew up with pets, dogs, cats, rabbits, etc. I can also cook, clean and run errands as per your needs. I am CPR/AED certified.

“Madeline cared for three of our children for two hours. She remained calm and capable during some very challenging behavior and thoughtfully checked with me about how I wanted her to respond. Her teaching experience was evident, and she was also personable and lovely to have around. I would definitely hire her again.”

Booked by 4 families in Rockaway Park, NY

Hi my name is Lorenza! I’m a recent college graduate with a bachelor’s degree in public relations and marketing communications and a minor in design, and I’ve spent over four years working as a professional nanny through an agency. I’ve cared for children from three weeks old up to fifteen years old, and I love being part of their everyday lives — watching them grow, learn new skills, and reach milestones is incredibly rewarding. I take a hands on, creative approach to nannying, making sure to include activities like arts and crafts, outdoor play, reading, and active games, while always following the family’s priorities! I really enjoy building strong, trusting relationships with the children I care for and their families, and I find that patience, flexibility, and a positive attitude make every day both fun and meaningful. I am CPR certified for infants and adults and prioritize safety while keeping children active, curious, and supported. I recently moved to NYC and am excited to connect with families looking for a responsible, energetic caregiver who genuinely enjoys working with kids!

“We had a wonderful experience with Lorenza. She was incredibly professional and so sweet with our 10-month-old daughter. We felt completely at ease, and we would absolutely recommend her to anyone. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”

Hello, my name is Amsatou! I’m a cheerful, caring, and reliable babysitter with over 8 years of experience caring for infants, toddlers, and children of all ages, including those with special needs. Families describe me as nurturing, patient, and very organized. I love keeping kids engaged and active—whether that’s playing outside, doing creative games, reading stories, or helping them explore their imagination. I’m also CPR certified, fluent in English and French (with some Spanish and other dialects), and enjoy introducing little ones to new words and fun learning moments. I’m currently a student at Monroe College majoring in Accounting, and I previously tutored math and economics, so I’m happy to help with homework too! I also love cooking and can prepare healthy, kid-friendly meals and snacks. Light housekeeping, tidying up, and even pet care are no problem. Most importantly, I take childcare as a big responsibility and pride myself on being present, dependable, and trustworthy. Your children’s safety, happiness, and growth will always be my top priority. I look forward to bringing energy, kindness, and fun to your family!

"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."
