Kashima 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Springfield Gardens, NY

I’m a certified and BLS-trained nursing student with a childcare certification and over 4 years of experience caring for children, seniors, and pets. I’ve worked with infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids handling feeding, meal prep, light cleaning, and creating fun, educational activities that promote growth and confidence. I’m patient, dependable, and calm under pressure, with a natural ability to connect and build trust. My nursing background ensures I’m attentive to safety, health, and emotional needs at all times. I’m also experienced in elder care, offering companionship, medication reminders, and mobility support. Whether it’s helping with homework, managing bedtime routines, or keeping pets happy and active, I treat every family as my own. I take pride in being reliable, professional, and caring someone you can truly depend on to keep your loved ones safe, engaged, and cared for.

Julia 1 review
$28 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Julia and I am an experienced childcare provider with a strong background in early childhood care, special-needs support and creating structured, engaging routines for children. I have worked with infants, toddlers, school-age children and non-verbal children through my DSP experience, and I am confident adapting to each child’s individual needs. I approach childcare with a calm, nurturing and safety-focused mindset. I’m attentive, patient and extremely reliable — the type of caregiver who communicates clearly, arrives early and maintains a stable environment where children feel secure. I enjoy planning age-appropriate activities, sensory play, crafts and simple educational games that keep children engaged in a positive way. I respect each family’s home, routines and parenting style. My focus is always on the child’s wellbeing, consistency, and comfort. During my shifts, I’m happy to tidy up activities or meals related to the children so everything stays organized and smooth for parents. I am based in NYC, flexible with scheduling and comfortable with daily routines such as feeding, playtime, naptime, and bedtime. I would love the opportunity to support a family that values communication, consistency and genuine care.

“My wife and I hire Julia for our date nights and she has been amazing with our 2Yr old. She has a calm, patient way with him that puts us at ease as soon as we walk out the door. He’s very active and curious, but Julia always keeps him safe, engaged and on his routine. She handles everything — dinner, bath time and bedtime without any issues and we always come home to a peaceful house and a happy kid. She also gives us quick updates so we never have to worry. As a dad, I can honestly say she’s one of the few sitters we fully trust. Highly recommend her for any family who wants stress-free nights out. — Dad of a busy toddler”

Sage 2 reviews
$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Springfield Gardens, NY

Hi families! I’m a warm, creative, and attentive caregiver who knows how to keep things fun while also creating a calm, safe, and cozy environment. I have hands-on experience caring for children from newborns through preteens (including my nephew since birth), as well as supporting seniors — I was raised by my great-grandmother and helped care for her into her late 90s, which taught me patience, gentleness, and deep attentiveness. I love bringing imagination into the day through art, reading, music, gentle play, and creative activities. I’m also very clean, organized, and respectful of the home — I enjoy light tidying, keeping spaces comfortable, and preparing simple meals when needed. I also work professionally with pets through dog walking, cat sitting, and house sitting, so your whole household is in good hands. I’m reliable, easy to trust, and I’d love to be a positive, grounding presence for your family — two-legged or four-legged. 🎨🐾

“Sage recently started working with our family. She is so amazing and wonderful, and our family is so lucky to have found her!!!!”

Yannie $35 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Yannie, and I offer dependable child care, senior care, and household assistance. As a mother of four children, I have years of hands-on experience caring for children from infancy through the teenage years. My children range in age from 11 to 26, and raising them has given me patience, compassion, and a strong understanding of children’s needs. In addition to raising my own children, I owned and operated a licensed family daycare, where I provided a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for children in my care. I am comfortable caring for infants, toddlers, and young children. I am CPR and First Aid trained through my previous family daycare experience and have always made the safety and well-being of those in my care my highest priority. I also have experience caring for seniors, both professionally and personally. In addition to caring for my own mother, I have provided care and companionship for other seniors as well. I can assist with companionship, transportation to appointments, meal preparation, medication reminders, light housekeeping, and daily activities while helping seniors maintain their comfort, dignity, and independence. In addition, I offer household assistance, including cooking, cleaning, organizing, laundry, and running errands when needed. I especially enjoy preparing Puerto Rican and Spanish-inspired home-cooked meals. I am also happy to care for pets, including feeding, walking, and giving them plenty of love and attention. I take pride in being dependable, caring, patient, and trustworthy. I understand that inviting someone into your home requires trust, and I strive to treat every child, senior, pet, and home with the same kindness, respect, and dedication that I would want for my own family. I look forward to becoming a reliable helping hand and a positive part of your family’s daily life.

"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."
