Booked by 1 family in Forest Hills, NY

Hi families! My name is Chantal and I’m a childcare provider based in NYC for 4 years with 6 years total of hands-on childcare experience. I am currently studying Childhood Education and have a strong background in child development! For the past 4 years, I worked closely with one long-term family, helping care for their child as they grew. As they’ve gotten older and no longer require care, I’m excited to connect with new families here on UrbanSitter! Throughout those years, I also worked consistently with several other wonderful families on an occasional basis, building strong relationships along the way! :) I genuinely enjoy creating a fun environment for kids, and arts & crafts are definitely one of my favorite go-to activities! While I’m new to UrbanSitter, childcare is absolutely not new to me! My profile may still be growing, but I’m happy to provide excellent references and recommendations from the amazing families I’ve worked with upon request. I look forward to meeting your family!

Hi, I’m Kyundra! I’m 27 and have been working in and out of childcare since 2016. I’ve lived in NYC for the past five years and have loved every minute of getting to know families across the city. Since moving here, I’ve worked in several childcare settings including 4K classrooms with the DOE, after-school programs, and as a trusted babysitter for families with children of all ages. What I love most about working with kids is getting to know their unique personalities and finding ways to connect with each one. Whether it’s through creative play, helping with routines, or supporting learning and independence, I always strive to make children feel seen, supported, and safe. I’m also comfortable around pets (I have a sweet cat named Viola who keeps me company at home!) and I’m open to light household help. While I don’t have a personal car, I do have my license and am happy to travel by public transportation anywhere I’m needed. In my free time, you’ll usually find me hanging out with friends, watching movies, or spending time with Viola. I truly love what I do and would be so excited to get to know you and your family. Please feel free to message me with any questions, I’d love to connect!

Booked by 16 families in Forest Hills, NY

Hey Parents! My name is Arianny, I am 23 years old, born and raised in Brooklyn with strong Dominican roots. As the oldest of six siblings, caregiving became a natural responsibility early in my life and sparked my passion for working with children. Growing up in a big family taught me patience, leadership, and the importance of creating supportive, joyful spaces for young children to thrive. In my free time, I enjoy baking, a hobby that allows me to be creative and often becomes a fun, hands-on activity to share with kids. I am an accomplished childcare professional with over five years of comprehensive experience supporting the developmental, academic, and social-emotional needs of children ranging from infancy through school age. Currently, I serve as a paraprofessional and hold a bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Development — a discipline that underscores my enduring commitment to fostering growth, resilience, and curiosity in young learners. Fluent in both English and Spanish, I bring the added value of bilingual communication, enabling me to facilitate meaningful connections across diverse families and to integrate language enrichment into everyday learning experiences. My approach to childcare is guided by patience, intentionality, and a thorough understanding of developmental milestones. I am adept at cultivating safe, nurturing, and intellectually stimulating environments tailored to each child’s individual temperament and strengths. I am available for full time work, occasional babysitting, overnight assistance, as well as open weekend availability. Above all, I am committed to establishing collaborative, trusting partnerships with families to ensure that every child receives thoughtful, developmentally appropriate, and high-quality care. I welcome the opportunity to connect and to discuss how my expertise can best serve your family’s needs.

“Arianny is very kind and sweet, definately recommend her!”

Hi! I’m Tanha, and have been babysitting for most of my life. I grew up as one of the oldest, with tons of littles around at any given time, I still have little cousins under 5 years old to watch. I also have little nephews that I absolutely adore. Holding a college degree, I'm experienced in caring for children aged 0-11, and comfortable with up to three children at a time. I'm patient, creative, and always approachable. I enjoy engaging children with board games, puzzles, and educational activities, and reading together. I prioritize open communication with you, using your preferred method to discuss your child's day. I'm also comfortable following your household rules. Ultimately, my goal is to provide a safe and enriching environment where your children can thrive, and I look forward to the possibility of becoming a part of your family's support system. I love cats and dogs and am comfortable being around them, I have 2 of my own sweet kitties. I am also very clean and tend to tidy up when I have downtime

“Tanha was a great fit for us! She and my daughter hit it off instantly. She was pleasant and attentive to my daughter and helped her with her bedtime routine. They bonded over their love of animals. Would def book her for childcare help again. ”
