Hi! I'm Haneen — a product designer with a background in architecture, and someone who has genuinely always loved being around kids. I grew up looking after younger siblings and cousins, and have helped out friends and family as a babysitter over the years, so I'm comfortable with the rhythms of caring for little ones even if it's not my full-time world. I'm creative by nature and training, and I'd love to bring that into time spent with kids, teaching them to draw, paint, work through a puzzle, or just make something fun with whatever's around. I speak Arabic fluently too, which kids tend to find pretty exciting. I'm available part-time and happy to work with most age groups, I don't have a specialty, but I'm attentive, patient, and good at reading what a kid needs in the moment. One small thing: I'm allergic to cats, so homes with cats aren't a great fit, but dogs are totally fine by me! If you're looking for someone reliable, warm, and a little creative to spend time with your kids, I'd love to connect.
Hello there ! My name is Rocio and I thank you so much for your time. I really appreciate you possibly allowing me into your home and lives. A little background about me, I have a Bachelor’s degree in Sociology with a minor in Early Childhood Education and worked for the Department of Education as a paraprofessional and substitute teacher for 10+ years. I am currently a full time student, studying Radiologic Technology, which reflects my passion for helping others. I have gained experience working with children and families of diverse age groups such as newborns, infants, toddlers and teens in different settings. Their needs are completely different as well allowing me to be flexible with all age groups and their individualities. I also have personal experience in caring for children as I have 3 siblings myself. Growing up caring for my siblings was a daily routine that I honestly grew to love and enjoy. I am naturally drawn to and am comfortable with children for I am open to listening to what they have in mind and making those things come to life, if possible. I am very interactive and hands on; I enjoy playing games such as board games or having dance parties, reading and acting things out and hide and seek, etc. I also like to explore children's creative side with face painting and arts & crafts which I find children love and enjoy. Whatever honestly makes them happy and keeps them safe. I’m bilingual in both English and Spanish, which helps me connect with diverse families. I also have my own pet, so I’m very comfortable with animals and happy to help with any pet care. Whether it’s playtime, homework help, or keeping routines on track, I’m here to make your life easier and give you peace of mind. I would appreciate the opportunity to get to know you and your family. If you have any questions please reach out to me through a quick message as I answer fairly as quickly as I can. Thank you in advance for your time and consideration.
Hi! My name is Jack. I moved to NYC about 7 years from Columbus, Ohio to major in Musical Theatre at Marymount Manhattan on the Upper East Side. I've been taking care and teaching kids since I was in high school. My friends and family would describe me as super positive, patience and great at problem solving. I've taught dance and soccer to all age ranges of kids in Ohio and NYC. I create a warm and supportive environment for all children that I interact with throughout my various jobs. "Jack - our coach, is a patient angel. Give that man a BIG raise! The way he handles the 5-8 year old crew (full of boys!) is a testament to how much he loves the sport. We appreciate Jack's efforts and style and hope he continues to inspire the kids in our community" This is a review from February 2026 at my soccer job with Soccershots NYC. I hope to inspire more kids in the community all around NYC. Hope to chat soon! Thank you
Hello! I am a retired Paraprofessional/Teacher Assistant with 20 years of experience working for the NYC Board of Education. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration and am also a proud mother of two. My driver's license is clean, and I am CPR certified. I have a genuine love for children and extensive experience working with special needs kids. Patience, care, and nurturing are qualities I pride myself on. I have significant classroom experience as well as tutoring backgrounds. I have experience working with infants and toddlers. I have worked part-time at a Montessori school with toddlers aged 18 months to three years. I find this age group particularly fascinating, and I thoroughly enjoy working with these young children. I possess extensive experience in feeding and supervising their naps. The two-year-old stage is a critical period, during which they acquire communication skills and assimilate new knowledge. Additionally, I am comfortable with pets and can help with walking them if required. Currently, I am working part-time with two sisters, ages five and six. My responsibilities include picking them up from school, taking them to various activities, entertaining them, and preparing dinner when necessary. I am also currently working with a three-year-old girl who is speech-impaired and has some medical issues. My duties include feeding and changing her, as well as engaging her in activities, specifically puzzles and other exercises to improve her motor skills. I also assist with driving her to outside services and school. I’m new to the urban app. I have great reviews on Sittercity you can check my profile on there.
My name is Kennedi and I’m located in the Harlem area of New York. I have experience working with children in both childcare and customer-facing roles where patience, attentiveness, and communication are really important. I genuinely enjoy working with kids and creating a safe, positive environment where they can play, learn, and feel supported. I’m very dependable, organized, and comfortable helping with routines like school pickups, activities, meals, and keeping children’s spaces tidy. I’m known for being calm, attentive, and engaging with kids, and I’m happy to provide references if needed. I am also CPR/AED/FIRST AID Certified as of 3/16/2026. Proof of certification can be provided upon request!
