Lorena $37 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Lorena and I am a reliable, organized, and nurturing childcare professional with hands-on experience caring for toddlers through Pre-K children in both private home and daycare settings. After building a strong professional background in creative operations within the corporate world, I am now seeking to transition back into childcare, bringing a calm, dependable, and highly organized approach to caregiving. ________________________________________________ Hobbies: Healthy eating is my passion (especially locally sourced) + baking without refined sugar, film, and history. Additional Info: I have a very easy commute to the city so I am open to NYC positions.

Marva $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Marva and I’m a mother of 3 offering child care services. I love taking care of kids and have lots of experience with it in the past. I have taken care of children in every age group, from newborns, to infants, toddlers, and preteen/teens. Apart from being a mother, I’ve been a Sunday school children’s teacher and in doing so, my responsibilities included story time, bathroom assistance and crafts. I would love to work with you and your family however I don’t have the best experiences with dogs so I would prefer not to work with them, but I currently have a cat who is the love of my life. I would be more than happy to read stories, do nursery rhymes, prepare meals for the kids and take them to activities. It would be my honor to assist you in caring for your child.

"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."

"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)."
