I love children and children love me. I’m very lucky and blessed, children are enchanted with me and we naturally delight in each others company. I am a highly trained caregiver in providing for your child’s mental, emotional and physical needs. I bring over 25 years of practical experience with children, from infancy through teenage-hood. I’ve had unique opportunities of working with children ranging in needs from being deemed extremely gifted to being a patient in a lock-down psychiatric ward. It’s important to me that children are given the opportunity to and learn to cultivate their ability to: thrive, be resilient, express themselves fully, develop high levels of self-efficacy & self-worth, love and be loved. I love to play! I’m crafty, artsy, musical, adventurous, active, happy and have great boundaries! Children naturally love me, this makes my job very easy. 😍 (I’ve also worked as a private chef, caterer, and personal assistant.) Some of my experiences with children include: -2 summers of teaching K-5 Science and Art for summer school, 4 yrs of substitute teaching, 2.5 years teaching pre-school for 3'-4's, 2yrs as aTiger Cub 'mom', 2 years I ran a Children's Crisis Shelter, 4 yrs I worked in a lock-down Psychiatric Children's Facility. I was a licensed Respite Care Provider and Foster Parent. I contracted with Child Protective Services for 5 years. I created a program working with Autistic boys (1 yr), for 4.5 years I was a Family Builder Specialist and Program Manager, for 2 yrs I was a Child Developmental and Behavioralist Specialist. I have been a temporary, part time, and full time nanny and sitter for over 20years. Over Covid lockdown I ran a private school and course for grades k&1. I volunteer with Big Brothers and Big Sisters, Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts and Adventure Scouts, food kitchens, Women’s DV shelters... Using my expertise in emotions, I teach classes for parents (and also for children) on empowerment, emotional development and intelligence, transformation, and self efficacy/esteem. ** Please note that I have cancellation policy - if you cancel a booking with in a week of, I charge a $50 cancellation fee or 50% of the booking, whichever is higher.

Hi! I’m Brunna, a professional nanny and certified Newborn Care Specialist with over 10 years of experience caring for children from newborns through the teenage years. I’m currently pursuing my Early Childhood Education degree and enjoy incorporating Montessori and Reggio Emilia inspired, child-led practices into my care. I love creating engaging, developmentally appropriate activities based on each child’s interests—from arts and crafts and sensory play to reading, outdoor adventures, and imaginative play. My goal is to provide a safe, nurturing environment where children can learn, grow, and have fun while giving parents peace of mind. A few important notes before booking: • Please let me know in advance if anyone in the household is sick, as I frequently care for newborns and young infants. • Cancellations made less than 24 hours before the scheduled start time are charged in full. • If a shift ends early, I charge for the originally agreed-upon hours, as I reserve that time specifically for your family. I look forward to meeting your family!

Hello! My name is Amary, and I’m 38 years old. I’m the mother of two adorable boys and have 10 years of babysitting experience. During my time as a student in France, I worked as a babysitter, and when I moved to the US, I decided to continue in this field. I enjoy playing various games with the kids and am open to any activity that the parents prefer. Occasionally, I try to teach them French, which I speak fluently. I’m available for occasional babysitting jobs and only accept jobs that are at least 4 hours long. I’m comfortable with dogs, but I’m not comfortable with cats because I’ve been attacked by one in the past. Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. Best regards, Amary

Certified birth and postpartum doula, as well as nanny guru! I have had the opportunity to live and travel throughout South America as a former Sr. Brand Manager for Avon Cosmetics. Due to this career I was able to pick up two more languages. I speak fluently: English, Portuguese, and I am a native Spanish speaker. I hold a Bachelors degree in Marketing more recently got my MBA and more than 20 years of experience working within an executive setting. I am now married with a 12 years old son who is simply my pride and joy. Having a child has been the most fantastic experience in my life and I enjoy every second of the responsibility. When children are babies or toddlers they have the ability to absorb so much knowledge. We should take advantage of this opportunity and teach them all that we can. It is such a joy to see the expression on a child’s face when they experience something new for the first time. As a mom, I know how precious our kids are, so I make sure to always be prepared for any situation. I'm charismatic, playful, loving, honest, responsible, organized, clean and thoughtful. I’ve learned how to diversify my cooking for almost any child’s taste buds. Certified in CPR and First Aid as well as bass experience with special need children. I have different Certifications: Birth and Postpartum Doula, Breastfeeding and Child early development counselor and Perinatal Nutrition Educator. My style of babysitting is to work on teaching daily routines, staying creative, and making every visit memorable and fun. And nowadays I work in a Foundation that helps Seniors which has being a great experience too. I make sure meals are balanced - veggies-fruits-cereal and protein, but at the end they are kids and we need to find fun ways to make there meals appealing, fun and different. I have worked with many different families outside of urbansitter, caring for children (boys and girls) from premise/newborns to 15 years old kids. I have references immediately available upon request. I look forward to meeting your family, and becoming a valuable resource when you need a responsible and experienced professional child sitter.
