Hi my name is Katherine! I’m currently a student at the College of Mount Saint Vincent. I am offering child care services. I’m also able to drive. Throughout the years, I’ve babysat toddlers and kids: from relatives and family friends. Some activities I love to do with the kids are crafts, coloring and drawing. I also enjoy doing outdoor activities such as walks and going to the playground. Lastly, I also enjoy cooking, baking and reading books.

Hello! You can call me Fatou for short. I live in the Bronx, willing to commute. I’m 25 years old and a full time experienced babysitter/nanny. I’ve been on Urban-sitter for a year now. I’ve done over nights, school drop offs and pick ups, and occasionally one time jobs as well. Worked with 7 families so far, with 2 families currently. I do well with complex schedules as well. Why babysitting/nannying? Knowing how to take care of kids before becoming a mom myself <3 I’m a former summer camp counselor from the Little Shepards program, had lots of fun going on outdoor trips to the zoo, amusement parks and museums. I’m a big sister as well, my little sister Tita! She’s 8 years old and the sweetest thing ever. We do a lot of our own girly dates like movies, kids spa and quick errands with me. So far we’ve watched The little Mermaid, Moana, Mufasa, and Elio! I have a 2 year old British short hair cat so I have experience with kittens/cats. Definitely look forward to working with you and your little ones soon!

Fatou was amazing! I needed someone last minute and she stepped in and saved the day! She had a great attitude and spent the evening with my 11 year old daughter. My daughter had a great time with Fatou and asked if she could babysit her again in the future. Fatou was punctual and communicative. I was at ease knowing that my daughter was in good hands. I would definitely recommend Fatou.

Hi there, I'm Sena, 28 years old, I completed my work a couple of weeks ago, the boys started school (still can't believe it ) I have experience with all ages of kids, and I like to have fun and teach them, I can provide my references, I have my car with a clear license, I love having time with the kids and teaching them new information, jokes, or songs, dancing, learning a lot of new things from them, exploring nature, making friends, trying to set up interesting games, playing video games or races together, or read the favorite books.. such an amazing situation and I love pets. I have an active, responsible, passionate, and funny personality. I'm looking forward to meeting with you :)

Sena arrived on time. My 16 month old was all smiles when she cared for him. She was clean, engaging, and energetic while providing a nurturing environment…I would definitely reccommend her to any family. Thank you Sena.

I love dogs! I enjoy walking them and playing games with them. I even chef up dog food and dog treats. I’m also willing to help train your pet or administer medication. I appreciate notes or rules for your pet behaves. I don’t take dogs over 30 pounds - small breeds in general.

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

Kamilah W., mom of one

photo of quoted parent Eric

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."
