Nicole $20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 7 families in Kew Gardens, 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.

Shermie $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Shermie, and I’m an experienced, dependable nanny with over 4 years of professional childcare experience and more than 8 years of volunteer work with children. I’ve cared for children ranging from 5 months to 13 years old, with strong hands-on experience supporting infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids. I truly enjoy supporting families and making a meaningful difference in children’s lives. I bring patience, creativity, and a friendly, nurturing approach to every interaction. My experience with older children comes from volunteer roles, including working at summer camps and serving as a Sunday school teacher, which has helped me build strong skills in guidance, communication, and engagement across age groups. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Forensic Psychology, giving me a strong understanding of child behavior, emotional development, and positive discipline strategies. I am CPR and First Aid certified, have a valid driver’s license, and am comfortable with pets.

I follow parents’ lead when it comes to household routines and rules, and I communicate updates in whatever way works best for your family—whether that’s verbal check-ins or regular texts. Ultimately, my goal is to provide a nurturing, fun, and reliable presence in your home, and I would love the opportunity to become part of your family’s support system!

Alice 1 review
$30 per hour for 1 child

My name is Alice and I'm 31 years old living in Middle Village, Queens. I have a profile also on care.com which has more reviews and have been using for years and new to this site if it helps sending it :) I first started caring for kids in a day-care at a gym 10 years ago then started on care.com and worked with many, many wonderful families since then and have found my passion working with children. I worked with kids from 2.5 to 12 years old to kids with autism/sensory issues, shy kids, chatty kids, kids with anxiety, so I'm super experienced and can relate to kids and understand how every chid has their own special personalities and needs. I drive my own car and my duties would always include picking kids up from school, taking them home, making sure they are comfortable unload backpacks if needed, give snacks/lunch if needed and let them have a little break, any after school activities in the same neighborhood, summer camps drop off/pick up, going to park, have done remote learning, sick days, making sure they do choirs or encourage doing things together and always teaching kids positive things, sometimes parents would just love us staying home and going on walks around a couple blocks, all depends on the kids and parents needs :) Always willing to work with what the family needs and usually make ourselves a schedule to go by and if they like alone time/ personality needs and traits and I love becoming a person they can always talk with and become someone they can talk too and go for any advice and comfort. Always communicating if any issues occur and look for that in parents as well. Communication, respect, caring families is always whats most important to me. My number one priority for the children I’m caring for is making sure they are safe, happy, comfortable and in the best care possible.

Alice worked with us for about 10 months, helping us out with our then 3 year old daughter. She helped us with pick up, taking our daughter to after school activities, and occasionally giving her shower. Alice was friendly and flexible with our schedule, and our daughter did enjoy the time they spent together.

"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)."
