Find a babysitter in Brooklyn, NY

Hello, My name is NaKea. I currently have my bachelors in psychology and I have my Associates of Applied Science in Early Childhood Education. I have been in the childcare journey since 13, working in my mother's daycare and having my first summer youth job in a daycare. in 2019, I started my journey as a lead teacher working with toddlers and continuing my journey to work with school age children. I have been a lead teacher, admin assistant, camp assistant director as well as a health director. I am currently a Paraprofessional in DOE for preschool as I continue to work on my journey to become a teacher in the DOE System. I have a well rounded knowledge of working with toddlers to preschool and some school age children due to the many belts I have had on my childcare journey. I am able to travel as I have a car. I can help with homework, picking up from extra curricular activities, assisting with nap/bed time. I can provide a safe environment and will provide open communication to provide comfortability to all parties. I’m very detailed with providing key information regarding my day with your child and have different methods and working with each child’s individual needs.

Hi, my name is Kim, but my friends and clients call me the "fairy dogmother" and the "doggie doula" because of how great I am taking care of dogs (and because of how much I spoil and love them)! A little bit about my background-- I am based in Brooklyn two blocks from Prospect Park. I have over 15 years experience caring for and rescuing high-need dogs with health issues. I decided to open up my home to dogs on Urbansitter after my senior dog recently passed away from end stage renal disease. Through caring for him and others, I have learned to administer subcutaneous fluid as well as oral medication to animals. I specifically have ample experience supporting dogs with generalized anxiety disorder, Cushing's, bladder stones, chronic pancreatitis, allergies, injuries, and so on. While I do have a full-time job that's unrelated to my passion for animals, I mostly work from home, which means I am available during the day for many walks and snuggles for your furry loved one. If you ask any one, they will tell you that they've never met someone who goes so above and beyond for dogs and that your companion will be so well-taken care of. (In fact, my old vet might have asked me a few times to adopt her as well. LOL! 💜) I don't do this for money. I do this because I truly love spending time with dog babies. It brings me the utmost happiness to bring them joy and to know that I'm providing someone else peace of mind while they are away from their loved one.

Hi, I am Yuka and I’m a dance educator based in NYC. I have over 15 years of experience teaching dance for kids (ages 4-17) I love animals, especially cats!

I am Cornelia , an experienced nanny with great references! I have had the opportunity to care for kids from newborns to school age for the past 16 years, and it has been a pleasure. My skills has sharpened as the years went by, and it has taught me a lot about myself. I love caring for kids because it affords me the opportunity to help contribute towards our next generation, as the first three years of a child’s life is the most crucial phase developmentally.

I love working with children, seniors, infants and animals and have been involved in service and care work for over 50 years. Though I am a senior myself, I am full of energy and enthusiasm. My passion for teaching, children and 🎶 music lead me to get involved with the Music Together program. I also have training in infant & adult CPR and have teaching certifications in Music Together and Trauma- Informed Yoga & Mindfulness. I am a 500 hour Registered Yoga Therapist and have taught Family Yoga. Senior Yoga & PreNatal Yoga for the past 25 years @ the local Prospect Park YMCA up until COVID. My work experience has given me the opportunity of working @ Berkeley Carroll School as well as public schools in the NYC metropolitan area. The truth is I am such a “wannabe” grandma and love being around, babies, children and animals. I look forward to getting to know your unique children and family …. pets included ! Please feel free to reach out to me.
