Hello, I’m Catherine! I am child and infant certified in CPR and first aid. I offer primarily child care, as well as pet sitting, and household services. I graduated from NYU, and went to Convent of the Sacred Heart on 91st street. I love reading aloud with kids, taking them to the park, playing pretend, arts and crafts, etc. I am very creative!! Listed are my specialties: - classically trained ballerina - guitar, flute and piano player - actor (trained @ NYU Tisch) - dance party expert - temper tantrum ready - excellent with poopy diapers I am also great at tidying up and preparing snacks/simple meals. I am great with pets- I have taken care of and adore both cats and dogs. I am also great at running errands and am excellent at house cleaning/organizing. I'm accepting of all religions, spiritualities, and lifestyles. I’m new to urban sitter, but am looking to build a good reputation/rating. I promise you loving, attentive, enthusiastic, and engaged care no matter the task. 😊
I have over 10 years of experience in child care as a pediatrics nurse and nanny. before I switched over to being an Executive assistant, I worked as a Medial Assistant in a Pediatrics office for 10 years. I babysat/ overnight many of my patients kids ranging from newborns to middle school ages. Im fun, super engaging with kids. I love to keep them busy with creative art activities, I can make meals, help with light cleaning and help the kids the homework.
Hi, my name is Adriana and I am an elementary school teacher on the Upper East Side. I just finished my 6th year of teaching and I have experience teaching 3rd-5th grade. My experience with working with children ages 4-14 dates back to when I was in high school when I taught dance classes at my dance studio. I also worked as a camp counselor at a 7 week sleep away camp in Maine for three summers during college. I love babysitting and tutoring kids between the ages of 4 and 14.
Hi there, my name is Caitlin! I'm 24 and have been living in the city for the past two years, but am originally from Wisconsin. I went to university for Entertainment and Marketing, and now I work in Film and Television PR during the day, however I am looking to pick up more babysitting gigs as I just love being around kids! Growing up with three younger siblings and 14 younger cousins, I've always been surrounded by kids, so now that I live away from family, I'm missing that burst of joy. I've been a certified babysitting for 12 years (CPR certified, and Red Cross babysitting certified), and worked as a summer nanny for three summers during college. As far as age experience, I'm very comfortable with kiddos of all ages, from infants to teenagers, I love it all! Hanging out and playing with the kids I watch is always a joy, however their safety is always my number one priority! I'm so excited to meet you and am grateful you took the time to read my bio :)
Hi! My name is Kat! I’m 28 years old and based in Manhattan. I was born and raised in Manhattan and currently live in the financial district. I have an undergraduate degree in Psychology from George Washington University and am a former Division I athlete. These experiences have shaped the way I care for children, with an emphasis on patience, empathy and consistency. I have been nannying throughout my life, with my most recent position lasting four years. I worked part-time, five days a week, with a family of three children ages 6, 8, and 10, and became a steady, trusted presence in their daily lives. From helping with homework and daily routines to offering emotional support and encouragement, I truly enjoyed being part of their growth. The family has since relocated, and I am now excited to find a new family where I can build a similar long-term connection! In addition to childcare, I’m a music producer and songwriter, which allows me to bring creativity, joy, and calm energy into the home. I’m someone who leads with kindness, listens closely, and values creating a safe, supportive, and loving environment where children feel seen and cared for. I am currently open to either a full-time or part-time nanny position and would love the opportunity to become a dependable and caring support for your family.

"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!"
