Hello, My name is Hayley. I received my master’s in occupational therapy, working with both children and adults. In pediatrics, I help with developmental milestones, language skills, and fine/gross motor skills. I’ve worked with clients ages 0-16 years old. I was also a certified ABA therapist for 2 years, working with children with autism, focusing on developing communication, social skills, and life skills. I have background and knowledge on proper positioning, feeding, tummy time, and developmental stages for infants. I have been a child care provider for families for 13 years and have been an Urbansitter for almost 10 years. I am CPR certified (infant CPR certified as well). I have a 4 hour minimum policy for bookings. Currently, I am doing occasional evenings and date nights. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions. Thank you for your consideration. Best, Hayley

Hi, I’m Andri! I’ve lived in NYC for 9 years and have over 10 years of childcare experience caring for infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. I’ve worked with many private families throughout NYC and have experience with both daytime and evening care. I’m kind, caring, dependable, and energetic. I enjoy keeping children active and engaged through outdoor activities, games, arts and crafts, reading, and age-appropriate activities. I also enjoy preparing healthy meals and helping families keep their children’s routines organized. Childcare has been a big part of my life since I was 15, and over the years I’ve built strong relationships with the families I work with. I understand how important it is for parents to have someone they can trust, communicate with, and feel comfortable having in their home. I’m currently looking for occasional, part-time and I’m happy to help with date nights, weekends, evenings, and other childcare needs.

“Super professional! Kept in touch with us, asked about allergies and any safety concerns… She’s definitely on top of things, and my daughter loved hanging out with her and even went to sleep smoothly with her as well! We will be booking her throughout the rest of our stay in nyc!”

Hello there! I’m Monifa, but you can call me Em. Thank you for stopping by my profile to learn more. I am a veteran at child care hoping to meet and help more families on the app. I’m a creative, fun, flexible, resourceful and entertaining former school professional, hospitality and operational expert in Brooklyn with over 15 years of experience with babysitting, summer camp, daycare, elementary and secondary education as a youth mentor, academic advisor, exceptional learner advocate, international trip chaperone, teacher, school leadership administrator and parent-advocate partner. You name it, and I’ve probably done it ☺️. I enjoy creating fun, loving and learning opportunities for everyone —especially children. As a seasoned professional, I work with a range of ages: —> Infants —> Toddlers —> Children —> Teens —> Adults —> Seniors I enjoy learning about, taking care of and engaging people. I am CPR trained and know how to manage emergencies with efficiency thanks to my background working as a school operations leader.

My capacity extends to include support with pet care for small/medium dogs and cats. I am however, open to learning to care for other pet types sans reptiles. I am happy to help our furry friends with: —> Walking —> Feeding —> Sitting If you may need a house sitter, I can support w errands, and organizing. I would be happy to connect over call/FT to learn more about your family’s needs to ensure that you get the timely care that’s requested, as well as sharing more detail about my experience and history. As a native New Yorker, I do not yet have a driving license but I am working on getting one very soon. To fill that gap I can happily coordinate other means of transportation to ensure that there is no impact. Looking forward to connecting with you soon. Cheers!
