Marleshka 2 reviews
$30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 3 families in Jackson Heights, NY

Hi! My name is Marleshka, but you can call me Marly. I am a current senior at the University of Vermont, and I am studying Psychological Science and minoring in Japanese. I graduate in May 2026. I am fluent and native in Spanish. Once I graduate, I hope to pursue a master's in social work to become an LCSW and work with those in underserved communities and with mental illness, particularly children. I have mentored for the DREAM program since October 2022, organizing activities and looking after children aged 3-18 with peers. I volunteer at least 3 hrs/week. I have also volunteered in a Head Start preschool and assisted teachers with children aged 5 and younger. This was from September 2023 to December 2023. I currently hold an American Heart Association BLS Certification valid until April 2027. This includes adult and child/infant CPR< first aid, and Naloxone training. I have received study skills training at my university to tutor others, and I had regular tutees this past semester. I love to teach children and do so in a way that works best for them. In my free time, I love to crochet, volunteer, listen to music, and bake sweets! I can't wait to work with you!

Booked by 1 family in Jackson Heights, NY

Hello! Sarai at your service! I’m a CCNY Fall 2020 Alumni with a BA Business Administration. While I chose this degree, I’ve developed a true passion for education. For the past two years, I’ve been employed full time at a school (staff role) and use up much of my free time to book gigs during weekends or weekdays (afternoon/evening times). I think of myself as a super fun, loving & energetic babysitter, but also, reliable, responsible & compassionate. As a perk: If you would like for me to teach your child a bit of Spanish, kindly let me know. I would be more than happy to do so. Be it a special occasion or just a night away from the kids, I'll make sure to take great care of them! Feel free to ask any questions if any. Happy to answer them all.

Saraai was excellent. Our son really enjoyed spending time with her. We would book her again.

Booked by 1 family in Jackson Heights, NY

Hi - I'm Lila and I'm a born and raised New Yorker spending my summer in the city before starting at University of St. Andrews in Scotland in September. I'm offering part-time child and/or pet care, along with light housekeeping. I love kids and have previous experience babysitting ages 3-9 years old. I grew up attending a local private school, and I'm experienced with the after-school pick-up and lesson commute! I like doing creative activities with kids - playing, reading, dancing, and arts & crafts. (When working as a docent in a museum I worked with kids and created a museum scavenger hunt!). I'm also a cat lover and owner with significant feline experience. I can also work with families with dogs.

Lila is very knowledgeable about cat and we have great first impression about her.

"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)."
