Carolyn $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Woodhaven, NY

Hello! My name is Carolyn and I'm a multidisciplinary artist, arts educator, and babysitter based in Brooklyn. My background encompasses creative direction, childcare, and community programming. My passion for nurturing young minds through creativity and play has grown through my work in artist residencies, where I regularly taught children’s evening art classes — designing hands-on projects that encouraged curiosity, confidence, and self-expression. I’m passionate about getting children off of screens and using their hands. I bring warmth, patience, and emotional intelligence to my childcare approach, creating safe, engaging environments where children can explore their imagination while developing important skills. My goal is to build meaningful, long-term relationships with families as a trusted caretaker, mentor, and creative guide. Experience age-wise ranges from children 6 months-10 years old. References available upon request.

I'm a dedicated and caring nanny with over six years of experience supporting children's growth, safety, and happiness. I enjoy creating a nurturing and structured environment where kids can learn and have fun through educational games, creative activities, and outdoor play. I value clear communication with parents and pride myself on being respectful, trustworthy, and mindful of each family's privacy while maintaining consistent routines and household rules. I'm also happy to help with meal preparation and daily organization. I'm CPR and First Aid certified, and I always prioritize a safe, positive, and engaging environment for every child in my care

A Bit About Me – My Journey in Childcare Back in 2017, I found myself stepping into the world of childcare, mostly curious (and a little excited) about the fun, messy, and unpredictable world of daycare. What started as just a job quickly turned into something more—I realized how much I genuinely enjoy being around kids and helping them grow. That spark led me to enroll at Medgar Evers College in Brooklyn to study childhood education more seriously. For about 3.5 years, I wore a lot of different hats in daycares—everything from assistant teacher to lead teacher—working with little ones as young as 6 months all the way up to 5 years old. After that, I shifted gears a bit and spent a year in afterschool programs with the older kids (ages 5 to 13) as a group leader. I’ve also been a helping hand for a few families on the side, stepping in whenever they’ve needed extra support. What I love most are the everyday moments with the kids—the silly laughs, the unexpected questions, the small wins that mean everything. No two days are ever the same, and that’s what keeps it exciting. For me, it’s all about being part of a child’s journey, watching them grow, and knowing I played even a small part in it.

Abigail $27 per hour for 1 child

Hello. My name is Abigail (abby) and I am a pre- school teacher working primarily with 3 year-olds. I enjoy my job and getting to educate while having fun with my beautiful students. Prior to this I have worked in day care centers so I have 2 years worth of experience assisting and providing essential care for children. Helping children with basic skill needs of any age is what I do best because I love seeing the transition/transformation as they grow up into little toddlers and exploring different opportunities. I am currently in school (full- time) online pursuing my Master’s degree in teaching special education and elementary. My goal is to ensure and provide children/students the best opportunity through consistency and engagement. Thank you.

"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."
