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!

Flordina $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Flordina and I am currently a nursing student with childcare experience. I used to take care of children since I was 12 years old including newborns, which gave me a lot of hands-on experience with kids of different ages and made me love being around kids even more. I am patient, caring, and responsible, and I always do my best to make children feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I love spending time with kids and keeping them engaged with fun and creative activities like storytelling, drawing, games, talking with them, and keeping them entertained in a safe and positive environment. And also helping with homework, daily routines, cooking etc. I understand how important it is for parents to find someone they can trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. I offer childcare services and am also willing to help with light household tasks when needed. I love kids and I enjoy helping families and creating a warm, loving, and trustworthy environment for the kids in my care.

"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)."
