Find an emergency babysitter in Hollis, NY

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

Hello there! I’m Lily, and I am experienced with children of all ages. I graduated with a MA in psychology from the New School for Social Research. Prior to being a childcare provider, I worked at a nonprofit that served high-risk adolescents. It made me very attuned to detail and comfortable in fast-paced, high stress environments—qualities that I believe will come in handy when caring for children. I babysat for years in NYC and SF through college and grad school. I have recently returned to UrbanSitter for occasional evening / nighttime work. CANCELLATION POLICY As compensation for lost time due to last minute cancellations, I expect 50% of the original booking amount for cancellations with less than 48 hours notice and the full amount for same day cancellations. Payable via Venmo or Zelle.

Hello, I'm Gina and I’m so excited to work with you! I’m a graduate of NYU where I received my Masters of Music in Vocal Performance (musical theatre). I’ve received in person guided and hands on training/instruction and certification in both adult and infant First Aid and CPR. I’m the middle child of three children, and one of 22 grandchildren in my family so I am very accustomed to being surrounded by young children running around! My mother has worked as an early childhood educator/administrator my entire life. Many of the tactics she utilized in her classroom were the same ones she used raising my siblings and I. I’ve learned much of what I use in childcare from her, including helping the young ones with their coursework! I worked as a sitter in the Chicagoland area before moving here to NYC for school and am now looking for new families to work with. Hope to connect soon!

I’m Ana, an energetic and experienced nanny who is passionate about creating a fun, safe, and nurturing environment where children can thrive. Transforming everyday playtime into engaging learning adventures is one of my specialties! Whether we’re building magnificent LEGO castles, creating arts and crafts, or designing our own comic books, I believe in making every moment meaningful and memorable. Over the last 9 years as a full-time nanny, I’ve proudly adapted to each family’s unique needs and parenting styles. In addition to my nanny experience, I am also a certified Home Health Aide (HHA), which has strengthened my caregiving skills, patience, attentiveness, and ability to provide compassionate support in a variety of situations. I have experience working with children of all abilities, including children with disabilities, developmental delays, autism, ADHD, and social-emotional challenges. I am experienced in administering prescribed daily medications, supporting therapeutic routines, and creating an inclusive, understanding, and nurturing environment where every child feels safe, supported, and encouraged to grow. I strongly believe in helping children develop healthy coping skills, confidence, independence, and emotional regulation through patience, consistency, creativity, and compassion. My priority is always making sure children feel loved, understood, and able to thrive at their own pace. I understand the importance of trust when inviting someone into your home, and I strive to become a reliable extension of your family. I have years of experience working with children ranging from infancy through high school, providing homework help, engaging in creative and educational activities, maintaining structured routines, preparing nutritious meals, and keeping play and learning areas organized and tidy. I’m a quick learner, highly adaptable, and flexible with scheduling, including being available for last-minute bookings when needed. I especially have a soft spot for babies and toddlers and truly love watching them grow, learn, and develop throughout the years. Building lasting bonds with children and families is one of the most rewarding parts of what I do. I’m excited to connect and discuss how my experience, energy, and passion for childcare can benefit your family :)
