Booked by 1 family in Mineola, NY

Hello, my name is Denise! I am 27 years old, a proud mom to a wonderful 7-year-old, and a dedicated childcare professional with a true passion for working with children. I am currently offering babysitting services and additional family support during my free time. I work full-time as a Pre-K teacher and have over four years of experience teaching toddlers. In addition, I have cared for children ranging in age from 5 months to 14 years old. My professional background has given me the skills to create a safe, nurturing, fun, and structured environment where children can learn and thrive. I earned my Associate’s Degree in Early Childhood Education from Borough of Manhattan Community College, and I will begin pursuing my Master’s Degree in May 2027 in Early Childhood Education and Special Education. I am committed to continuing my education so I can provide the best care and support possible for children and families. I am a very active, enthusiastic, and energetic person who can easily match the energy of your child while keeping them engaged in positive activities. I enjoy reading books, making arts & crafts, playing board games, practicing flashcards, and going to the park (with parent permission). I believe childcare should be both fun and enriching. I am fully vaccinated, dependable, and happy to provide references upon request. Please don’t hesitate to send me a message with any questions I would be more than happy to speak with you. Thank you for taking the time to read my introduction, and I hope to hear from you soon!

Booked by 1 family in Mineola, NY

I’m a certified and BLS-trained nursing student with a childcare certification and over 4 years of experience caring for children, seniors, and pets. I’ve worked with infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids handling feeding, meal prep, light cleaning, and creating fun, educational activities that promote growth and confidence. I’m patient, dependable, and calm under pressure, with a natural ability to connect and build trust. My nursing background ensures I’m attentive to safety, health, and emotional needs at all times. I’m also experienced in elder care, offering companionship, medication reminders, and mobility support. Whether it’s helping with homework, managing bedtime routines, or keeping pets happy and active, I treat every family as my own. I take pride in being reliable, professional, and caring someone you can truly depend on to keep your loved ones safe, engaged, and cared for.

Kashima was excellent and I would definitely recommend her to any family !

Danesha 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Danesha and I love kids! I have experience working with kids of all age groups in various settings such as camps, daycare, schools, and therapeutic environments. I enjoy engaging kids in activities such as arts & craft, board games, and free play to express their authentic self. I aspire to become a school psychologist.

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Danesha, and I can confidently say she is one of the most reliable, attentive, and trustworthy people I’ve collaborated with. Her natural ability to connect with children, remain patient in challenging moments, and keep a calm, positive energy makes her stand out as a caregiver. Danesha is extremely dependable! She always shows up on time, communicates clearly, and takes her responsibilities seriously. She has a warm and nurturing personality that kids gravitate toward, but she also balances that with professionalism and excellent judgment. Whether she’s engaging children in activities, helping with routines, or maintaining a safe, structured environment, she’s consistently attentive and responsible. I’ve seen firsthand how thoughtful and detail-oriented she is. Parents can feel completely comfortable leaving their little ones in her care knowing that she prioritizes safety, follows instructions, and handles unexpected situations with maturity. Anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and dedicated babysitter would be lucky to have Danesha. I highly recommend her without hesitation.

Booked by 1 family in Mineola, NY

Hi families! I’m a warm, creative, and attentive caregiver who knows how to keep things fun while also creating a calm, safe, and cozy environment. I have hands-on experience caring for children from newborns through preteens (including my nephew since birth), as well as supporting seniors — I was raised by my great-grandmother and helped care for her into her late 90s, which taught me patience, gentleness, and deep attentiveness. I love bringing imagination into the day through art, reading, music, gentle play, and creative activities. I’m also very clean, organized, and respectful of the home — I enjoy light tidying, keeping spaces comfortable, and preparing simple meals when needed. I also work professionally with pets through dog walking, cat sitting, and house sitting, so your whole household is in good hands. I’m reliable, easy to trust, and I’d love to be a positive, grounding presence for your family — two-legged or four-legged. 🎨🐾

Sage recently started working with our family. She is so amazing and wonderful, and our family is so lucky to have found 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)."
