With over 15+ years of experience in child care, I bring a deep commitment to nurturing and educating children in both home and school environments. I hold a degree in Elementary Education from Saint Peter's University, along with an Early Childhood Teacher Certification from the state of New Jersey. My background includes extensive experience in classroom settings, as well as roles in back-up child care and private nannying. I’m passionate about supporting each child’s development through patience, creativity, and a warm, engaging approach. Whether in a structured learning environment or a more flexible home setting, I strive to create a safe, joyful space where children can thrive. In addition to child care, I also offer dependable pet care and home cleaning services. I'm comfortable with a variety of pets and take pride in providing gentle, reliable care tailored to their needs. When it comes to home cleaning, I focus on creating organized, tidy spaces so families can enjoy a clean and stress-free environment. I’m here to help make daily life a little easier—whether that means caring for your children, pets, or home—with professionalism and heart.
Hello NYC (and traveling) Families, I have 17+ years of childcare experience, including several years working in NYC charter schools. I am currently attending graduate school full-time. I'm CPR/AED and First Aid certified and up to date on all immunizations. What I love most about childcare is helping children build confidence, develop new skills, and discover their interests. In my free time, I enjoy reading, trying new restaurants, hiking, and traveling. If you have any questions, feel free to message me or schedule a FaceTime. Happy to connect! :)
Hi families, My name is Sophia, I am a 25-year-old experienced nanny with a bachelor's degree in International Business. I am offering child care, pet care, senior care, and household services. During my time in college, I discovered I am a people person and love to be around kids. This made me volunteer as a teacher and start my journey working as a nanny even though I have accumulated some experience since I was even younger. I have always cared for children of all ages, from newborns to school-age kids. I am CPR certified with years of experience as a nanny. You can trust that your kids are going to be in good hands. I am very responsible, I always show up on time, and I have special care for kids. I hope I can be considered, and we can have a conversation. I would love to hear from you soon. Best regards, Sophia
“Sophia was great with our 3 year old daughter and very punctual and responsive! ”
Hello, My name is Hayley. I received my master’s in occupational therapy, working with both children and adults. In pediatrics, I help with developmental milestones, language skills, and fine/gross motor skills. I’ve worked with clients ages 0-16 years old. I was also a certified ABA therapist for 2 years, working with children with autism, focusing on developing communication, social skills, and life skills. I have background and knowledge on proper positioning, feeding, tummy time, and developmental stages for infants. I have been a child care provider for families for 13 years and have been an Urbansitter for almost 10 years. I am CPR certified (infant CPR certified as well). I have a 4 hour minimum policy for bookings. Currently, I am doing occasional evenings and date nights. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions. Thank you for your consideration. Best, Hayley
Hello! My name is Katryna and I’m a preschool teacher and childcare provider here in NYC. I'm a graduate of The Institute Of American Musical Theatre, and it is my dream to open a performing arts center for children and performers with special needs. I have 7 years of childcare experience including CPR/First Aid and EpiPen training, babysitting, and teaching (martial arts, music, and theatre to children ages 2-12). Growing up in a military family with many younger siblings, I understand the importance of a family environment and always treat the children I look after with the same amount of love, respect, and care that I do with my own siblings and students.
