Nicole $20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 7 families in Howard Beach, NY

Hello, I’m Nicole! I’m a warm, responsible, and experienced childcare professional with over 10 years of experience caring for infants, toddlers, and young children. My background in childcare and child development has given me the skills to create a safe, nurturing, engaging, and structured environment where children can learn, grow, and feel supported. As a former Girl Scout from Daisy through Cadette, I developed strong values around leadership, responsibility, and dependability from an early age. I have experience supervising children throughout the day, managing routines, preparing meals, assisting with homework, organizing fun age-appropriate activities, and confidently caring for children in the absence of parents. I’m known for being patient, friendly, trustworthy, and highly reliable. I handle challenging behaviors calmly and respectfully while maintaining clear boundaries and structure. I take pride in being punctual, professional, honest, and dedicated to providing exceptional care. I am bilingual in English and Spanish, which allows me to communicate comfortably with diverse families and children. I also have a strong passion for working with children and supporting their well-being and development. I currently attend college on weekends and have a long-term passion for healthcare, with aspirations of continuing to grow in the medical field. My ultimate goal has always been to work in pediatric care, which reflects my genuine love for helping children thrive. I would love the opportunity to support your family and provide loving, dependable care for your little ones.

Booked by 2 families in Howard Beach, 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! ❤️

$21 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 3 families in Howard Beach, NY

I have been working with children since 2013. From 2013 to 2016, I taught children in educational settings, which helped me develop patience, creativity, and strong communication skills. Since 2014, I have also been babysitting and have experience caring for children of different ages, from newborns to school-aged kids. I am comfortable caring for multiple children at the same time. Most recently, I cared for three boys at once, managing their different routines and needs, picking them up from daycare and school programs on time, preparing meals, playing with them, and helping with their evening routine. This experience strengthened my ability to stay organized while making sure each child receives individual attention. I also cared for a baby from 1 month old until her first birthday while her mom attended classes at NYU. My responsibilities included feeding, diapering, playtime, and both daytime and overnight care, including responding when she woke up during the night. In addition, I have experience as a private tutor for a child on the autism spectrum. This experience taught me the importance of being patient, adapting my communication and teaching approach to the individual child, providing clear guidance, and allowing them to learn and engage at their own pace. I understand that every child has different needs, personalities, and ways of communicating. I am a cheerful, patient, and dependable caregiver who genuinely enjoys spending time with children. I love planning fun, age-appropriate activities, helping with homework, reading stories, playing games, and creating a safe and nurturing environment where children can learn and have fun. I also love cats and enjoy taking care of plants, and I always treat every family's home with respect and care. My background in psychology has further strengthened my communication, empathy, and understanding of individual differences, helping me connect well with both children and parents.

Suzanne $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Suzanne and I'm offering child care, cooking, household services, and any last minute overnights you might need for an adults night off! Living in Brooklyn, I enjoy staying active, whether it's a nice outdoor walk, or thinking up a fun indoor activity. My college degree was in educational psychology. I've been certified by Karma Kids to teach kids yoga, and enjoy many forms of movement & art making. Probably the most fun thing in my background was volunteering 6 years with Free Arts NYC, while working FT, and finding different ways to allow creativity to engage, empower, & have fun. I really enjoy babysitting and working with kids, making sure parents can feel at ease. I have watched all ages and have decades of experience and fun skills to offer. Open to drop offs + pick-ups via walking/subway/driving from school and activities, figuring out activities, crafts, and tutoring. I can also offer household assistance, meal prep, cleaning, and running errands. I'd love to see how I can brighten up your child and family's day!

"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)."
