Blanca $20 per hour for 1 child

My name is Blanca and I am a 53 year-old woman who has over 10 years caring for children ages 2 months-10 years. I have experience caring starting from early years. I am a mother of 2 daughter ages 22 (graduated from Cornell University) and 26 (graduated from City College), which makes me even more qualified as a nanny. I am a native Spanish speaker and am more than excited to teach how to read, speak, and write in Spanish. I speak limited English but enough to communicate with. I am available for part-time and full-time jobs. Feel free to contact me if anything. Thank you.

Olivia $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Olivia & I just graduated from Auburn in May and just moved up to the city! I interned here last summer and loved it so I am happy to be back! I am offering child care and household services. I love babysitting and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers and kids since I was 14 years old. My responsibilities have included driving to and from school and activities, crafts, outdoor activities such as swimming and biking, tutoring, and keeping up with schedules for naps, meals, bedtime, etc. I have also traveled with families as a nanny. I can work as a household assistant as well and run errands, clean, etc. I am allergic to cats but love and am comfortable around dogs!

"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)."
