Mafe $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Mafe, second year au pair (nanny) from South America. In Colombia I was a preschool English teacher and a babysitter. I have experience with big groups of kids and all ages (especially infants and toddlers) During my first year in the US I was taking care of two girls (3 and 5 years) and now, I am taking care of three kids (1, 4 and 6 years). I am a responsible, calm, creative, empathetic and loving person! I have lots of childcare experience. I love spending time with kids because of their energy and happiness, and if I have the materials, I love doing lots of activities, crafts and playtime. I am open to watch kids during daynights, daytime babysitting, going out, making craft, playdates, playtime, reading books, etc.

* I AM A COMMUTING PRO! I SPENT YEARS LIVING/WORKING IN MANHATTAN AND AM EAGER TO ACCEPT POSITIONS IN MANHATTAN/QUEENS/BROOKLYN AND THE BRONX Hello my name is Tracey, and I would love to learn more about your family! I am a California Certified Teacher (Art and Pre K) and started working as a full-time Nanny 2 years ago. I have worked both full-time and part-time positions for regular reoccurring families with various needs and requirements. I have worked with infants to 8 year olds, with the tiny ones being my favorite. ☺️ In addition to Nannying, I've worked as an English as a second language reading and writing Teacher. I have worked with 2 sets of twins, one set with neurodivergent exceptionalities that I have been with on weekend days for 2 years. My strengths as a Nanny come with 25 years of Teacing experience. I am patient, kind and an excellent communicator. As such, I flourish with a family with these and other positive traits. As an elementary school teacher I was a little surprised to being partial with infants to toddlers, which is now my specialty! I am happy to share with you my extensive resume and excellent references. Thank you for your consideration and I look forward to meeting you!

Erika $20 per hour for 1 child

My name is Erika, I am from Colombia, I am a very reliable, patient and empathetic person, I love children and animals. My last experience was being an au pair where I took care of a 1-year-old boy, I did this for a year, my responsibilities were to prepare and feed him lunch, put him to sleep for a naps, change his diapers, wash his clothes, fold them and put them away, clean his room and play areas, read him stories, accompany him in his learning to walk and talk, take him to the park, teach him the Spanish language. With me your children will receive adequate attention and I am willing to take on other additional light tasks if you request it. Personally, I am organized. With all my skills and responsibility I can provide a supervised, safe and stable environment for your little ones, since I am the second sister of 4 women and I have taken care of children since I was 16 and now I am the mother of a beautiful daughter my main language is Spanish and I speak a little English.

"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)."
