Hadrien $21 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Hadrien and I’m from Lyon, France. I speak English, French and Spanish. I recently completed my Master’s degree in France and I am currently studying at MiM for 3 months. I have 3 months of experience working in a childcare center, where I took care of children aged 1 to 14 years old. I organized activities adapted to their age, such as creative workshops, card games and board games, depending on the weekly theme. I am patient, responsible and energetic, and I really enjoy spending time with children, especially doing outdoor activities like going to the park. I am also very comfortable with pets, as I grew up with animals. I have one dog and three cats, and I love taking them out for walks and spending time with them. I would be happy to take care of your children and/or pets :)

Laura 2 reviews
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Laura, and I’m a bilingual Argentinian artist based in NYC. I have over 10 years of childcare experience, starting when I was 18 years old caring for young children, and for the past 8 years in New York I have worked with families as both a babysitter and full-time nanny. My experience includes caring for children from 2 months old through 13 years old. I also worked as a full-time nanny for 2 years caring for two toddlers, helping manage daily routines including meals, naps, playtime, outdoor activities, bedtime routines, and developmental support. As an artist, I love incorporating creativity into childcare through arts and crafts, imaginative play, storytelling, and engaging hands-on activities. I enjoy creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children can feel comfortable and supported. I also have experience with pet care and am very comfortable in homes with dogs, cats, and am open to pet sitting opportunities. I’m open to babysitting, nannying, recurring care, date nights, school pickups, and family support. Looking forward to connecting with a great family!

“We've been lucky to know Lau since my daughter was just two months old, and she's been a trusted sitter for our family over the past seven years. Over that time, she's become part of our family's village, and I can't recommend her highly enough. She is kind, creative, fun, and genuinely loves being with kids. She she gets down on their level, plays, creates, and treats them with respect. My daughter and her friends adore her, listen to her, and she has a calm, effortless way of building trust while still providing structure. Lau is reliable, trustworthy and a great soul to be around. Any family would be lucky to have her.”

"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."
