Hello! Thanks for looking at my profile! In my childcare experience, I’ve worked as a camp counselor, nanny, Mother’s helper and director of summer camp. I’ve cared for children from 2 weeks up to 12 years. I enjoy incorporating my knowledge and experience with art into my work with children because I believe it helps them to express their creativity. I attended the University of Oregon and graduated with a dual degree in Latin American Studies and Theater. Thanks for your consideration.
I have over 15 years experience formally babysitting a variety of age ranges. In addition, I have been a camp counselor, a tutor, a youth group peer leader, and a resident assistant in the dorms while in college. I also taught English in Thailand and worked with university women in Cambodia. I look forward to getting to know your family! Currently based in New York, NY (video is outdated!)
“Tanya is wonderful! She put my 2 year old daughter at ease right away. Highly recommend!”
Hello there! I’m Lily, and I am experienced with children of all ages. I graduated with a MA in psychology from the New School for Social Research. Prior to being a childcare provider, I worked at a nonprofit that served high-risk adolescents. It made me very attuned to detail and comfortable in fast-paced, high stress environments—qualities that I believe will come in handy when caring for children. I babysat for years in NYC and SF through college and grad school. I have recently returned to UrbanSitter for occasional evening / nighttime work. CANCELLATION POLICY As compensation for lost time due to last minute cancellations, I expect 50% of the original booking amount for cancellations with less than 48 hours notice and the full amount for same day cancellations. Payable via Venmo or Zelle.
Hi! My name is Isabella and I'm a college student living in Brooklyn for the summer. I am offering child care, pet care, and household services. I have volunteered at the Summer Fun Program and at the Children's Discovery Center in my hometown, working with kids from 3 years old to 12 years old. Most recently I have been a caregiver for infants to toddlers. My responsibilities have included bottle feeding, changing diapers, playing with the children, and putting them down for naps or nighttime routines. I am also open to working as a household assistant and can clean and run errands. My family currently has two dogs and I am happy to work with other families with dogs.
“Isabella was watching our 18 month toddler while we went out. Isabella communicated well about when she would arrive and how things were going. We would hire Isabella again in the future”
