I pay close attention to detail, communicate well, and always strive to create a safe, positive, and supportive environment. Whether it’s helping with daily routines, providing companionship, assisting with errands, or keeping a home organized, I take pride in being reliable and giving my best effort. I love building meaningful connections and making a positive difference in people’s lives through compassionate care.
Hello, I'm Becky, based in Astoria. I'm a former nanny and substitute teacher. I have worked with all ages from newborn up! I'm currently working with Zing Kids! as a recess coach and Afterschool Collective as an art and S.T.E.M. teacher for kindergarten and 1st grade kids in LIC. I have lots of free time to look after your kiddos nights and weekends and days schools are off. I also have a local rate for my Astoria families. Please reach out to discuss!
Hi, I’m Emma! I’m currently nannying part time! I worked in a multilingual preschool for 2 years where I lead group activities and focused on social emotional development. I have experience teaching swim lessons and working in other school environments with children aged 2-10. I also have experience working with seniors and end of life care.
Hello my name is Sarah I am an experienced daycare assistant with hands-on childcare experience seeking a full-time nanny or babysitting position. I am currently working in a daycare setting, where I support children’s daily routines, learning, and development, and I also provide occasional weekend babysitting for one of the children in my care. I am bilingual in English and Spanish and passionate about creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for children. I am looking to bring my experience and dedication into a full-time nanny or babysitting role with a family.
Hi, I’m Kate! I am a first-year Masters in Social Work student at NYU living in Brooklyn. I graduated from Vanderbilt in 2021 with a degree in Cognitive Studies and African-American and Diaspora Studies. I’m just getting started on Urban Sitter, so I’m happy to provide references from families I’ve worked with in the past. I have 11 years of babysitting experience with kids of all ages, genders, and personality styles. I have experience with kids with Downs Syndrome, autism, and other special needs. This has included children with aggression and other severe behavioral problems, and I am confident in my abilities to meet these patterns with patience and compassion. I love kids and empowering them to practice autonomy while also being someone they can depend on. I’m looking for part-time babysitting opportunities during weekday evenings and weekends! I’m looking forward to meeting you!
