Booked by 2 families in Forest Hills, NY

Hi My name is Fania, and I’m a caring, patient, responsible, and dependable person who genuinely enjoys helping and caring for others. I have about 2 years of experience caring for children from 2 months to 13 years old. I truly enjoy working with children and spending time with them. I like playing with them, talking with them, reading books, helping with homework, preparing simple meals and snacks, and finding fun and age-appropriate activities to keep them engaged. I also have experience caring for adults through agencies and I have a Home Health Aide (HHA) certificate. My experience has given me the opportunity to work with different families and provide support based on each person’s individual needs. I’m comfortable helping with daily routines, providing companionship, and making sure the person I’m caring for feels safe, comfortable, and respected. Although I really enjoy working with children, I’m also open to caregiving opportunities with adults and families who need a reliable and caring person to help them. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your loved ones. I take my responsibilities seriously, I’m attentive to their needs, and I always treat the people I care for with patience, kindness, and respect. I would love the opportunity to support your family, whether you’re looking for childcare, adult care, or general caregiving support. I look forward to meeting you and learning more about how I can help! ❤️

$17 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Forest Hills, NY

I love the joy and companionship of cats. I like to offer my catsitting services as a fun and fulfilling hobby. I give cats ample time, play, and attention — plus affection, cuddles, and snuggles depending on their individual comfort level. I work from home and will spend a good amount of time inside your home to give extended companionship. I can accommodate housesits and overnight stays at this time, meaning I would stay inside your home for at least one night or more. I can also do extended housesits with your cat.

“Danielle is a wonderful person who genuinely enjoys spending her time with cats. My cat has extreme anxiety which is typically exacerbated when I travel. When Danielle stays over, my cat shows no signs of her typical separating anxiety.”

Booked by 6 families in Forest Hills, NY

Hi there, my name is Kudi. I have 7 years of experience as a sitter and nanny, providing assistance to families in New York and New Jersey. I am dedicated and passionate about working with kids. Over the years, I have cared for children of all ages and have developed my skills in creating a safe, nurturing, and fun environment for them. I am background-checked and I have received certification in CPR, AED, and First Aid through the American Red Cross. I am highly dependable (references available upon request), accountable, affectionate, compassionate, and above all, entertaining! No one enjoys a dull babysitter. Being around children is something I cherish. I can cook up quick meals, handle cleaning, and laundry, and run easy errands too. If you have any questions about me, just shoot me a message! Thanks immensely for considering me--I look forward to hearing from you!

Hello, My name is Yolee. I am an actress and performer living in NYC. I’ve been nannying for about 3 years. Some things that make me stand out as nannying are my commitment to creative non screen activities, great communication skills, and housekeeping skills. a I have experience with infants and children on the spectrum. I am CPR certified and able to drive (but I don't have a car). I look forward to hearing more about your families needs and how I can be of service! Thanks, Yolee

"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)."
