Hello! I’m Olivia, a full time elementary school art teacher. I offer childcare and household services in Brooklyn, Queens, and Manhattan. I have been babysitting since I was 13 years old, and the ages of the children in my care have ranged from 2-11 years old. In addition to being certified to teach visual art, I am certified in general childhood education and am able to offer homework help and tutoring or even art lessons along with childcare! I love to work with kids and plan enriching art activities or help them meet their academic goals. I am able to complete chores, cook, and help with pet care as well!

Booked by 7 families in Cambria Heights, NY

Hi everyone - My name is Yoselin, and I’m a student at Queens College. I’m offering childcare, dog care, and cleaning services. I’ve been babysitting children aged 6 months to 12 years old for over three years. I’ve helped with schoolwork (tutoring and projects), crafts, and even given dance lessons because, as a fun fact, I’m a collegiate dancer with training in various genres. This last year I’ve had the pleasure of working with two families. Both under the age of two. However, I am actively looking to start a new position so please feel free to reach out. I’ve also dog-sited and house-sited before 😊 • I can provide references ! Please note the following: To ensure my own safety, I require a uber or taxi back home for jobs that finish after 10 PM. I’m more than happy to complete a job that pays below my usual rate(s) if I apply for it.

Qualifications: - I have a bachelors in Psychology, where I gained a comprehensive understanding of child psychology. - My CPR and First Aid certifications ensure that I am prepared to handle any emergency situation with confidence and efficiency. Experience: - For the past 5 years, I have worked as a professional childcare provider and educator, caring for children ranging in age from infants to pre-teens. - I have experience managing multiple children simultaneously, creating engaging activities, and providing age-appropriate educational opportunities. - My experience includes meal preparation, bedtime routines, and transportation to and from activities. Personality Traits: - Patience: I understand that every child is unique and requires individualized care and attention. My patient demeanor allows me to navigate challenging situations with ease and empathy. - Creativity: I enjoy coming up with imaginative activities and crafts to stimulate children's minds and encourage their creativity. - Adaptability: I am adept at adjusting my caregiving approach based on the needs and preferences of each child and their family. Talents: - Strong Communication Skills: I prioritize open and clear communication with both children and parents, ensuring that everyone is on the same page and comfortable expressing their needs and concerns. - Organization: I excel at managing schedules, keeping track of appointments, and maintaining a tidy and organized environment conducive to children's well-being. - Compassion: Above all, I approach caregiving with a genuine love and compassion for children, treating each child in my care with the same level of care and respect I would want for my own family. Overall, my extensive experience, combined with my nurturing personality traits and talents, make me a trusted and reliable caregiver who is committed to providing the highest quality of care for children and their families.

Zina was able to come on very short notice when I really needed some help, which was very appreciated. She was great, very proactive and able to relate to our kids very quickly. She came up with some great games for our fairly active boys and they had a good time with her. I would recommend her to anyone and we will definitely hire her again.

Booked by 10 families in Cambria Heights, NY

Hi there! I’m Debra, a sitter who genuinely enjoys spending time with kids. I’ve cared for children across ages, from infants to school-aged, and I like building little routines and activities that keep them engaged: crafts, reading, a trip to the park or library, or just good play. I offer babysitting and childcare, plus help with light household tasks like tidying and organizing as I go. I’m comfortable with the full range of day-to-day care: feeding, naps, bedtime routines, and homework help for older kids. I bring a calm, dependable presence and pay attention to the details. I’m reliable, communicative, and easy to coordinate with. I currently get around by transit, so I’m a great fit for families who don’t need driving. Outside of sitting, I love reading, singing, traveling, and a bit of interior decorating, interests I happily fold into creative time with kids. I’d love to meet your family and learn how I can help. Thanks for considering me!

"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)."
