Anastasia $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Anastasia and I’ve been caring for kids and families in different settings for almost a decade. I’m a toddler teacher transitioning into paraeducator work, and I’m looking to support families with child care, pet care, household help, and senior care. I started helping with kids around age 12, shadowing my nanny while she watched her friends’ children. In high school I regularly babysat two kids after school and during the summers (ages 1.5–5), and I also worked as a parents’ helper and date‑night sitter for another family from 2018–late 2019. In addition to private babysitting, I’ve worked in center-based care at The Goddard School with ages 2.5–4 as a floater, supporting multiple classrooms. As a toddler teacher, I’m very comfortable with big feelings, tantrums, and helping little ones with transitions and routines. I’m CPR/AED certified and have completed Bright Horizons trainings and other required early childhood courses. I’m comfortable with school pick‑ups, simple meals, light cleaning, play-based learning, and creating calm, structured routines. I also love animals. I have two cats of my own, I’ve done overnight dog sitting, and I help care for my parents’ two dogs. I’m happy to include pet care, walks, and basic house tasks in my visits. Families describe me as dependable, gentle, and very detail‑oriented. I’d love to get to know your family and see how I can help.

Maria $28 per hour for 1 child

As a nanny from Brazil, I bring 8 years of experience 4y being a teacher in Ebateca, 2 years as a living nanny in Brasil and 2 more years as an Aupair here in US (with a special focus on infants), but also a lot of love, patience, and joy to my work. My heart is truly in caring for little ones. For me, being a great nanny means partnering with you. I see myself as an extension of your family, carefully following your approach to routines, education, and parenting so your child feels secure and loved. You’ll often find us out exploring! I love taking children on adventures to parks, museums, and aquariums—anywhere we can discover something new. I’m also dedicated to nurturing their growing minds and hearts through social play, story times (a personal favorite!), and gentle encouragement to help build their confidence and vocabulary. I’d love the chance to bring my caring and supportive energy to your family.

"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."
