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.

I am a current MBA student and graduate of Georgetown University who loves children and has vast experience in childcare returning to babysitting while out of the job market. I have tutored kids from first to seventh grade, been a preschool assistant teacher and babysat for many families over the years. My duties have included school pick up and drop-off, meal preparation and planning fun activities for the kids. I am a big fan of getting outside and doing something active or creative. With a cognitive science degree focusing on child development, I am confident I will be a terrific complement to your family. I look forward to hearing from you!

Hi! I'm Kelly. I have 20+ years of childcare experience with specializations in infant care and autism care. I hold a BA in English from UNCG and an MA in literature from CCNY. My favorite thing to do with children of all ages is share my love for reading. I have 4 years of teaching experience including ADHD executive functioning coaching and teaching English at the undergraduate level. I work in non-profit communications.

“Kelly was so great with my 3 year old and 7 month old and was able to put both kids to bed on her first visit with us while we went out for date night. Our 7 month old was pretty fussy and she was able to manage everything like a pro! Would 100% book her again for babysitting. ”

Hello I'm Erika! I’m a mom of a 5 year old son!The last Children I babysat for called me the best caregiver they've ever had reason being, we always managed to stay active and keep busy by doing arts and crafts playing outside whatever it might be. Previously I worked in a daycare I've always had a passion for watching children! My number one thing is safety keeping your child safe is so important to me I will keep them safe as if their my own! I also like communication to know whats going on and nobody is wondering anything such as checking in once a day or sending a picture to show what were up to during the day! I have various cultural competence skills. If there is anything else you would like to ask please let me know! Thanks!

“She was absolutely wonderful with my three kids (all under 3!), which is no small task. She was warm, patient, and immediately made both me and the kids feel comfortable. She handled everything calmly and confidently, and it was such a relief knowing they were in good hands. She’s also very easy to talk to and communicative. We would happily have her back again!”
