Booked by 2 families in East Elmhurst, NY

Hi! My name is Francie and I just graduated from Williams College. I am a babysitter and tutor, and am also willing to work with animals. I have experience in babysitting elementary and toddler-aged children, but am excited about working with other ages. I also have experience tutoring my younger brother, who had learning difficulties, so am comfortable working with kids who might have difficult relationships with school work. In the past I've dropped kids off and picked them up, done crafts with them, taken them to the playground, read with them, made up dances, and otherwise tried to have them to creative activities. Please let me know if I can give you any more info!

Hi! My name is Aaliyah. I'm 22 and a sophomore in college. I am very artistic and I have a number of hobbies. I enjoy painting, drawing, reading, building, writing, baking, singing and dancing. I have 9 years of experience with childcare. I've taken care of children from the age of 4 months-14 years old. I have a very flexible schedule. I am CPR and first aid certified. I can prepare meals, assist with potty training, help with bathing, changing diapers, help with homework, plan and partake in activities with the kids, clean up after them and put them to bed. I ensure the children's safety while in my care. I am patient, responsible, respectful, reliable, fun and creative. I have good communication and problem solving skills. I can also help with swimming supervision, transportation, light housework and grocery shopping. I work well with multiple children since I grew up taking care of my 3 younger siblings. I also love animals! If I have applied for a position listed on the Job Board, be assured that I will be happy to work for the rate offered in the listing, even if it is below my usual rate. BOOKING POLICIES: If the booking starts later or ends earlier than expected, I still expect the payment for the original booking agreed. If a booking is cancelled within 24 hours of the start time I expect full payment. Cancellations made within 48 hours will require 50% payment as it can be difficult to secure alternative work on short notice.

Wyatt $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I'm Wyatt, I'm 23, and I recently graduated Columbia University. I am offering child care, senior care, and household services. I love being a babysitter and have lots of experience with kids, both as a babysitter (since middle school) and as a summer camp counselor (throughout high school and college). I have minimal experience with toddlers and no experience with infants, but would love the opportunity to gain experience with these ages. As a babysitter, my responsibilities have included driving to/from school, tutoring, and even drum lessons! I love doing magic tricks, playing games, and doing arts and crafts! I also can work as a household assistant and cook, clean, and run errands. I have been a caretaker for my own grandparents and am happy to cook, drive to appointments, or do other tasks!

"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."

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)."
