$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Whitestone, 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!!!!”

Nicole 1 review

Booked by 1 family in Whitestone, NY

Hi! I’m Nicole, a caring, dependable, and energetic 20-year-old college student who genuinely enjoys working with children. I first gained childcare experience at 16 through a SYEP after-school program, where I helped supervise and engage children in fun, age-appropriate activities while creating a safe and positive environment. I’ve also spent years caring for my younger cousins and have provided babysitting services for two families with children ranging from ages 1-6 and 4-11. These experiences have strengthened my patience, responsibility, creativity, and ability to connect with children of different ages and personalities. I truly enjoy helping children learn, grow, and have fun while making them feel safe, supported, and cared for. I currently work as a certified lifeguard, supervising children of all ages and ensuring their safety every day. I’m CPR, First Aid, AED, and Lifeguard certified, so you can feel confident knowing your children are in capable hands. Staying calm under pressure, being attentive, and responding quickly are skills I bring to every family I work with. Whether it’s arts and crafts, games, reading, outdoor play, homework help, bedtime routines, or simply being a positive role model, I love creating a fun, engaging, and nurturing environment where children feel comfortable being themselves. I’m also happy to prepare meals and snacks, help with light housekeeping, organize play areas, and support your family’s daily routine however I can. I’m bilingual in English and Spanish and currently attend a Medical Assistant program in Manhattan (Monday-Friday, 8:00 a.m.-1:00 p.m.), so I’m primarily available afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your children, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to give parents peace of mind while making sure their children feel safe, happy, and excited every time I’m with them. I’d love the opportunity to become a dependable, caring, and positive part of your family’s support system.

“Nicole cared for my children, and I always felt confident leaving them in her care. She is dependable, responsible, and genuinely enjoys spending time with kids. She was always patient, kind, and attentive, making sure my children felt safe, happy, and engaged throughout the day. Whether she was helping with meals, playing games, reading, or keeping them on their routines, she handled everything with care and professionalism. Nicole is also an excellent communicator and always kept me updated if needed. She is punctual, trustworthy, and someone I could rely on. My children looked forward to spending time with her because she created a fun and positive environment while still maintaining structure and safety. I highly recommend Nicole to any family looking for a caring, responsible, and dependable babysitter. She has a natural ability to connect with children, and I know she will be a wonderful caregiver for any 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."
