I am a friendly, detail-oriented Bushwickite with 8 years of experience caring for and supervising children between 1 and 7 years old! I also have 10+ years of experience caring for cats and dogs with various medical and environmental needs :) 🦴

Hi there! My name is Lindy and I’m a 26-year-old artist and textile-maker living in Brooklyn. I graduated cum laude from NYU three years ago where I studied mental health with a focus on children and adolescents. I am passionate about early childhood, and this fall, I’ll be back in school working towards my masters degree in art therapy. In the mean time, I’m looking for part-time nanny work and regular babysitting opportunities! :) I adore children and have been babysitting since an early age. In addition, I have experience working as a teacher’s assistant at my local temple, a day care assistant, and as an intern at a children’s arts camp in Brooklyn. In total, I have over 5 years of experience caring for children aged 3 months to 12+. I've spent the past three years since graduating college nannying part-time. One of my previous nanny families described me as “kind, sensitive, attentive, and simply a lovely human being…who has very much become a part of our family.” I am fully vaccinated and boosted as well as CPR and First Aid certified. Let me know if you’d like to speak to my references!
“Lindy helped us out last minute when our full-time caregiver had a family emergency. She was calm, kind and mature and easygoing about our toddler being in a cranky mood. Our 5 year old also had fun playing with her. ”
Hi – My name is Isatu, and I’m currently studying for the LSATs. I am offering child care, senior care, and household services. I love working with children and have over 8 years of childcare experience, beginning with caring for my younger siblings and neighbors’ children. This early responsibility led me to volunteer at multiple afterschool programs and later work in both daycare and after-school care. I enjoy storytelling, outdoor activities, and creating a positive environment where kids can grow, feel supported, and be themselves. My responsibilities have included crafts, tutoring, outdoor play, supervising routines, and helping children build confidence and independence. I also provide household assistance and can cook, clean, organize, and run errands with care and reliability.
My name is Manisha. I'm 36years old. I come from a huge family and have taken care of children for a long time. I have experience with children as young as 6 weeks - 13 yrs old. There are two families that I've babysat for over 4 years. I've worked as a full time nanny for a 3 month old and 2 yr old toddler. I've also worked part-time sitter with a 3 year old and a 6 week old newborn. I've also babysat for family and neighbors over the years . I'm the type of babysitter who'd rather be outside in the playground or library rather than be in front of the television. I'm also not one of those nannies who sit with the other nannies at the playground and chat instead of playing with the kids. And if its raining or the kids feel under the weather, I love doing fun activities and arts and crafts projects. I also love to cook. Its a passion of mines. The only time I use my cellphone is when the parents are calling or texting.
“This review is for our phone interview. Manisha is an excellent candidate!”

"UrbanSitter is my go-to for quality sitters! I can book weeks ahead of time or easily find a same-day sitter when in a bind. I even hired a part-time nanny during a daycare transition. Customer service is helpful and babysitters respond in a timely manner."
