Joset Brooklyn
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi everyone, My name is Joset. I live in Brooklyn and I'm CPR Certified and fully vaccinated. I have more than 20 years experience in Childcare, caring for children from infant through to teen. I'm a very nurturing, loving, dedicated, jovial and fun person. I love caring for children because It's a joy for me to work with them and see their different stages of development and to teach new things while learning from them also. I've cared for 9 months old twin, changing their diaper, feeding them, sterilizing bottles, putting them down for naps, taking them for walks, to music class etc. I cared for mute boys ages 4&2 who were on the spectrum, that allows me to work with speech, occupational and physical therapists. Also I have worked with a 7-year-old who had ADHD for 3 years, whom I took all over New York City to Dr. appointment, museums, zoo, library, picnic in the park, movies and many more. I can commit to any job for long term, I've been on one of my previous job for over 6 years and I also have impeccable references. My current boss is moving and I'm available to start a new job. Looking forward hearing from you. Joset

$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Far Rockaway, NY

Hello, welcome to my page! I'm Ashley. I am 33 years old. I have been around children all my life, helping with babysitting and tending to my nieces and nephews and I enjoyed every minute of it. I am also a mother of a beautiful five year old and she's just the best thing ever. Watching her learn and grow is so exciting and it's definitely given me a deeper appreciation for children. Having a child of my own, I cannot help but spread that same nurturing and love to other children. I treat every child as if they were my own. On a more professional note, I have worked with intellectually and developmentally disabled children, young adults, and seniors. I have over 10 years of experience in that department and in that job, I have performed household chores, cooking, and cleaning, and teaching academics. I also did Dog Boarding for several years. I had over 20 repeat clients and always achieved a 5-star rating. I love love love animals. Especially dogs and cats. I will provide my services with professionalism and efficiency. I have a passion for giving and making sure anyone in my care, feels that sense of love, safety, and nurturing.

Ashely is such an amazing warm and professional caretaker. I would highly recommend Ashley to other families!

Catherine Jamaica
$28 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Cathy and I am native New Yorker who has spent the last 10 years working with children (mostly ages 5-18) primarily as a tutor. In addition to tutoring, I have also been responsible for picking up / dropping off children at school and after-school activities (walking and via car). I have meal-prepped for up to three siblings and ensured that homework and household responsibilities were complete. I love treating my clients as if they are my own children. I am responsible, timely, very communicative so parents do not worry and have high energy! I am also a pet lover, with my own chihuahua named Gizmo. My schedule is very open and adjustable, since I am also a day trader with flexible hours. I look forward to seeing how I can be of service to your family!

Booked by 1 family in Far Rockaway, NY

Hi there! I’m a 25- year-old nanny currently (for 1.5 years) caring for two amazing kids, aged 3 and 4 years old. Spending time with children brings me so much joy, and I’ve dedicated much of my life to roles that involve working with kids. My childcare experience includes: • Live-in nanny for three boys (ages 7, 10, and 13), managing busy schedules and lots of driving. • Nanny for a 2-year-old girl for 6 months. • Summer camp counselor for 5 summers, creating fun and engaging activities for kids aged 4–12. • Private tutor for children (ages 7–11) for 4 years, helping with math and English. • Party princess, face painter, and kids’ yoga teacher, adding magic and creativity to events. • Big sister to my 5-year-old sibling, caring for her since birth. I’m passionate about creating a safe, fun, and educational environment where kids can thrive. I’m currently looking for occasional babysitting opportunities Besides working with kids I have a degree in architecture and have worked in this field as well.

Thank you! Sara was great!

"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)."
