Pasika 3 reviews
$28 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 3 families in Jackson Heights, NY

Hi My name is Pasika. You can call me Bee. I have been taking care of children for 15 years, college educated with B. S. Degree in Major Nutrition. I have experience caring all ages of children, changing diapers, bottle feeding, making meals and giving baths. I'm motivated and proactive in childcare, household arrangement; arrange activities, play dates, healthy food preparation, etc. I maintain current Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED certification from American Red Cross. I am non-smoker/drinker. I am reliable, responsible, creative, educated, fun, hard working, care and have infant experience. Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to hearing from you soon. PS. I'm fully vaccinated and boosted!

We love Bee! We found Bee through UrbanSitter, we originally hired her to watch/care for our son several times for date nights. Soon afterwards, we hired her as our part-time nanny! Although Bee is a bit quiet initially, she lights up with children. Our son (now 10-months old) took to her immediately. Bee is always very patient and fun with him, and I often find them laughing, “chatting,” and playing together. Bee is very sweet with our older dog as well, she is always on time, and great with sticking to the baby’s daily schedule (feedings, nap time, going for walks, etc.). We provided detailed instructions for caring for our son (I.e. he has eczema and needs cream applied regularly and diapers changed very frequently) and she has been meticulous in following any instructions. I would highly recommend her to anyone, especially to parents with infants, babies, and small children.

Assana 2 reviews
$27 per hour for 1 child

My name is Assana, and I am a dedicated and reliable nanny with several years of hands on experience caring for children. I have worked with multiple families, providing attentive childcare and supporting children with their daily routines, meals, homework, and engaging activities. I take pride in creating a safe, loving, and structured environment where children feel comfortable and supported. In addition to childcare, I have assisted families with household responsibilities such as cooking, cleaning, and laundry to help keep the home organized and running smoothly. I have also traveled with a family as a travel nanny when needed, which has strengthened my flexibility, adaptability, and commitment to meeting each family’s unique needs. I am patient, trustworthy, and passionate about helping children grow and thrive.

I had the pleasure of having Assana as a nanny for my two children, and I truly cannot recommend her enough. She is incredibly caring, reliable, and dedicated to the families she works with. From the very beginning, she created a safe, nurturing, and structured environment for my children, and they absolutely adored her. Assana went above and beyond her role every day. She not only provided excellent childcare, but also helped with laundry, kept the house clean and organized, and made our home run smoothly. One of the things I appreciated most was her ability to incorporate learning into daily routines she even taught my children French, which was such a valuable and unique experience for them. She is patient, attentive, and genuinely passionate about working with children. Any family would be lucky to have her, and I confidently recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and hardworking nanny.

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’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.

Hi! I’m Josee—a caring, dependable sitter with 10+ years of experience working with children from newborns to school-age, including those with special needs.

Erin $20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Jackson Heights, NY

Hi! I'm a Brooklyn-based university student pursuing a degree in Early Childhood Education. I have over five years of childcare experience, including four years working in preschool and daycare settings, and I am passionate about helping children learn, grow, and feel supported in a safe and nurturing environment. Most recently, I worked as a Lead Twos Teacher at Lightbridge Academy, where I was responsible for creating engaging learning experiences, supporting children's development, and maintaining a positive classroom environment. I also recently had the opportunity to be apart of an internship at Spruce Street School in New York City's Financial District, where I worked with elementary-aged students and supported classroom learning and activities. Prior to moving to New York, I worked for three years as an assistant teacher across multiple schools, gaining experience with children of different ages, backgrounds, and learning needs. I enjoy creating engaging activities, encouraging learning through play, building positive relationships with families, and making every day fun and meaningful for the children in my care. My experiences, combined with my studies in Early Childhood Education, have strengthened my passion for working with children and helping them learn, grow, and thrive.

"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)."
