Natalie Estelle $40 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Rockaway Park, NY

Hello! My name is Natalie and I am here to offer my services for child care, dog care, and household chores. I am newer to the Urban Sitter community, but I have 10+ experience with babysitting, as well as children's camp counseling. As an actor/writer, I bring a lot of heart, creativity, and patience to the care I provide. I am looking for part-time work, including pick ups & drop offs from school/activities, cooking/cleaning, date night babysitting, and playtime. I love kids, and I am looking forward to building trusting relationships with the families I provide care for. Additionally, I have been a dog owner for almost 15 years, so I am here for any pet-related needs as well, as I am organized, cleanly, and enjoy taking dogs on long walks. I look forward to meeting you!

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
