Hey Parents! My name is Arianny, I am 23 years old, born and raised in Brooklyn with strong Dominican roots. As the oldest of six siblings, caregiving became a natural responsibility early in my life and sparked my passion for working with children. Growing up in a big family taught me patience, leadership, and the importance of creating supportive, joyful spaces for young children to thrive. In my free time, I enjoy baking, a hobby that allows me to be creative and often becomes a fun, hands-on activity to share with kids. I am an accomplished childcare professional with over five years of comprehensive experience supporting the developmental, academic, and social-emotional needs of children ranging from infancy through school age. Currently, I serve as a paraprofessional and hold a bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Development — a discipline that underscores my enduring commitment to fostering growth, resilience, and curiosity in young learners. Fluent in both English and Spanish, I bring the added value of bilingual communication, enabling me to facilitate meaningful connections across diverse families and to integrate language enrichment into everyday learning experiences. My approach to childcare is guided by patience, intentionality, and a thorough understanding of developmental milestones. I am adept at cultivating safe, nurturing, and intellectually stimulating environments tailored to each child’s individual temperament and strengths. I am available for full time work, occasional babysitting, overnight assistance, as well as open weekend availability. Above all, I am committed to establishing collaborative, trusting partnerships with families to ensure that every child receives thoughtful, developmentally appropriate, and high-quality care. I welcome the opportunity to connect and to discuss how my expertise can best serve your family’s needs.
“Arianny is very kind and sweet, definately recommend her!”
Hi, I’m Dominion, and I’m a biology graduate from the college of mount Saint Vincent, NY. I used to work as a microbiologist and now preparing for my masters program. I offer reliable child care, and household services. I have a passion for babysitting and have been caring for children—from newborns to preteens, including all my little cousins during summer vacations. My experience includes school pickups, engaging activities like crafts, tutoring, and even managing dance lessons. In addition to babysitting, I could provide household support, including cleaning, and running errands. I have experience caring for my grandparents, so I'm comfortable with senior care, whether it’s preparing meals, or helping with daily tasks. My hobbies include listening to music, YouTube, shopping, working in a laboratory and reading leisurely. Looking forward to meeting you!
“When my mother-in-law was unexpectedly unavailable, I reached out to Dominion and she saved the day! She arrived on time and instantly connected with my 6-month-old, which is no easy feat considering that I work from home and my daughter is super attached to me. I was instantly comforted by my daughter's smile when Dominion reached for her and by Dominion's innate ability to soothe her when she did get a bit fussy later in the day. She understood my daughter's cues, and we had a chance to laugh about them together after I had finished a few meetings. She also treated my home with great respect and showed a genuine interest in getting to know my family. I know I will continuously reach out to her when needed. Thank you, Dominion!”
Hello! My name is Mary, and I am a preschool special education teacher currently working in Queens, NY. I am offering childcare services along with light housekeeping, including cleaning, vacuuming, laundry, and preparing simple snacks. I have a strong passion for teaching children and have been in the field of early childhood education for sixteen years. I have experience caring for infants, toddlers, teenagers, and young adults, with the majority of my experience focused on children ages 2–5. My responsibilities as a teacher include lesson planning, creating hands-on crafts, and reading age-appropriate storybooks. I am comfortable working in homes with small dogs; however, I am not accustomed to working with other pets, such as cats, hamsters, or large dogs
Hi! My name is Cindy, and I am a dedicated and nurturing sitter with over 8 years of experience caring for children of various ages. I have a passion for creating a safe and engaging environment where kids can thrive while having fun. My experience ranges from babysitting toddlers to helping with homework for school-age children. I'm excited to bring my enthusiasm and care to your family!
Hello, my name is Leesie! I’m currently a student attending St. John’s University pursuing my undergrad in health & human services. After college I plan to work with children with special needs - my inspiration for this is my dear brother Lincoln whom has autism. He’s my super star and I’ve helped my mom raise him up since I was 10 until leaving home to pursue my education. I hope to be able to help families out there that need assistance with their children from a wide range of ages; struggling work and home life which I know can be super stressful. My interests are out door activities, painting, sports and reading. I have no problem with cleaning after kids/ keeping things tidy also helping with homework if needed… however if you require me to cook I am working on my skills but I’d say I have a moderate ability to do so as a young adult and open to learning more through out this experience.

"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."
