Hello NYC (and traveling) Families, I have 17+ years of childcare experience, including several years working in NYC charter schools. I am currently attending graduate school full-time. I'm CPR/AED and First Aid certified and up to date on all immunizations. What I love most about childcare is helping children build confidence, develop new skills, and discover their interests. In my free time, I enjoy reading, trying new restaurants, hiking, and traveling. If you have any questions, feel free to message me or schedule a FaceTime. Happy to connect! :)

- I have a 4 hour minimum and I ask for a car home after 10pm for safety. Thanks! Hi! I am an actress/singer/photographer/web designer who adores kids! (and pets!) Originally from Kansas City, I have been living in NYC for 18 years. I graduated with a BFA in Musical Theatre from Webster Conservatory of Theatre Arts in St. Louis, MO. Not only do I love spending time with kids - I also love performing for them. I have toured the country performing in the Dr. Seuss musical SEUSSICAL and I have also performed with Disney Cruise Line playing Mary Poppins, Mrs. Potts, The Fairy Godmother and more! I began babysitting when my little brother was born (I was 11) and I have been babysitting ever since! I adore kids and their outlook on life. They bring me so much joy. I have worked with newborns, teens and every age in between. I audition a lot during week days so nights and weekends are best for me. (I do not mind working really late nights!) I look forward to meeting you and your family!

Mallory was wonderful with our 9 month old son!! She was great at communicating and made my husband and I feel fully at ease being away from him for the night. We highly recommend her!!

Hi, I'm Andri. I’ve lived in NYC for 9 years and I’m new in this app and seeking my next nanny opportunity with a wonderful family. I'm a kind, compassionate, and caring person also I’m very energetic person also I love to make healthy meals. caregiving has always been a part of my day-to-day. So, naturally, I turned to childcare as a profession at the age of 15. My background caring for infants, toddlers, and I upgraded to working with private families during the day and in the evenings I worked as a waitress. I've worked with a family as a Nanny and now their family are moving out to a different state. I've been working in childcare for the last 8 years, in my free time I like to play sports such as soccer and swimming and also I love to go to the gym. need some extra love between homes. I'm lookingforward to finding the next family that I'll be working with long-term or part time. It's important that we both feel we're the right match for one another, so I appreciate you taking the time to read through my bio. I hope we connect soon!

Hello! I am a loving, playful, creative professional Ballerina, Early Childhood Educator, and Nanny. I have been a regular part time nanny for multiple families in NYC for the past 10 years. (I am actually still with a family that I met when I first joined Urbansitter- through the birth of their second child and a move!) I strive to provide a loving, peaceful environment, and to nurture all areas of development for these wonderful little humans. In addition to more than a decade of hands on experience, I have been trained in childhood development through movement with Dionne Kamara, and through sensory play with Jennie Monness at Union Square Play. I have since joined the staff there as a Lead Educator and a Co-Creator of the ‘Dance! Play! Ballet!’ curriculum. I base my approach to nannying on the Montessori, Reggio Emilia, and RIE philosophies that I have been exposed to and experienced in my work. I am Infant CPR/First Aid certified.

"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!"
