Melissa $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Melissa, I'm 31 years old and live in Manhattan near Carnegie Hall. I'm taking a break from corporate life (I'm a business intelligence developer normally) and want to make some cash doing something I love for a little bit while I figure out my next move. I've been babysitting since I was 12 years old for neighbors and friends and have continued babysitting ever since. I was a camp counselor for a few years for 3rd graders and have mastered coming up with games on the spot. I also have experience as a full-time nanny as well for a 2 y/o. I've recently been babysitting for some coworkers and parents at my gym! I've worked and love all ages (3m/o-13y/o). About me: I have an 80 pound dog that I adore, I'm currently training for my first half marathon (Brooklyn Half), I love to travel more than anything, and I love to cook and bake when I have free time. Academic background: I have undergraduate and graduate degrees from Virginia Tech in Business. I've worked mainly in the analytics space and love problem solving. I'd be happy to teach your kids how to code if they're interested :) Please reach out with any questions, I'm looking forward to chatting with you!!

Joelle $28 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Joelle Guy. I’m 28 years old and a graduate of FIT in NYC, where I studied fashion and interior design. Alongside my creative freelance work, I’ve been nannying and providing childcare support for the past three years. I’m a very creative, nurturing, and energetic person who loves building meaningful connections with the families I work with. Outside of work, I love gardening and have my own urban garden, and I’m passionate about music, painting, arts and crafts, cooking, and spending time outdoors. I enjoy bringing those interests into my caregiving style to create fun, enriching, and engaging experiences for children. I offer childcare, babysitting, household support, senior support and dog-sitting/ house-sitting support. Child Care I have experience caring for infants, toddlers, and school aged children. I currently freelance nanny and babysit for multiple families in Brooklyn, including caring for a 1 year old girl, as well as a 6 year old girl and 4 year old boy. From May 2023 through October 2024, I worked as a part time nanny for a family with a 3 year old girl in Brooklyn Heights and Westchester. I love creating fun, creative, and educational activities for children. Some of my favorite activities include arts and crafts, painting and creative projects, baking and cooking together, outdoor adventures and nature walks, visiting gardens and identifying plants, reading and imaginative play, sports and active play, and music and singing. I’m very creative and artistic, with experience in painting, design, music, and cooking. I love creative learning, meal preparation, and teaching children through hands on activities. I also play basketball, practice yoga, and enjoy encouraging healthy and active lifestyles. I have several years of hands on childcare experience working closely with families in NYC. You can also add CPR or First Aid certifications here if applicable. Senior Care: While most of my professional experience has been focused on childcare and household support, I’m a compassionate, patient, and attentive caregiver who genuinely enjoys helping others feel comfortable and supported. Pet Care: I have a 4 year old Mini Dachshund, so I am very familiar with the effort and care that goes into taking care of a beloved pet. They really are members of the family and should be treated as such.

"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."
