Hello, my name is Daisy. I live in Bushwick Brooklyn. I have experience working with children in a daycare. I have an associate degree in bilingual education and am currently pursuing my bachelor’s degree. I love working with kids because I find them inspiring and fun; I am patient, caring, and enjoy making arts and crafts, as well as exploring new places outdoors. Languages are a big part of my life—I speak Spanish and English, and I am currently learning Italian. I have a flexible schedule, allowing me to work during the day or at night, depending on your needs. I am a responsible driver with a valid license and know the city well. Last year, I went on a road trip from New York to California, which helped me become familiar with many places and develop strong driving skills. I would be very excited to have the opportunity to work with you. I am dedicated and eager to help in any way, also I can provide support in cleaning too. Thank you so much for considering my application.

“Daisy is excellent, and our son Nico was very comfortable.”

Hello! I'm Jessica. I live in Harlem and am an energetic, reliable caregiver who loves keeping kids active, engaged, and safe! Caring for children has been my passion since I was young. Most recently, I provided childcare and housekeeping for a wonderful family in the West Village for four years (an excellent reference is available upon request). I also assist at my church by facilitating weekly children's programming. I’m available for temporary or permanent opportunities. I can help with one-time babysitting or a recurring schedule up to 26 hours/week (W-2 or 1099 preferred for longer engagements). About me: Fully vaccinated CPR/First Aid certification for infants, children, and adults Non-smoker Experienced nanny Will help with housekeeping and pet care I am highly dedicated to my work and take it seriously. One of my favorite parts of caregiving is building lasting relationships with families and being someone they can really count on. I actively supervise playdates and playground time, and I ensure snacks and supplies are ready so kids can have the best time possible. Let's schedule a chat to discuss how I can support your family responsible and really get along well with children!

“Jessica took care of our 6 year old occasionally over the last couple of years. She is a very attentive, pro-active and engaging person who is always looking for ways to help. Our family truly loves her for the good person she is. Apart from that, she’s also confident with EpiPens and other emergency challenges that may arise. I couldn’t recommend her enough!”

"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)."
