Amy $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! I’m Amy, a warm and dependable caregiver with 10 years of babysitting and nanny experience. I’ve worked with children in after-school programs at the YMCA and Harlem Children’s Zone and I’ve also worked as a CNA. I’m currently studying Communications. I love finding activities each child enjoys, whether that’s crafts, reading, outdoor play or homework help. I can help with school pickup, meals and bedtime routines too. I’ll follow your family’s routine to keep you updated and make sure your child feels safe and cared for. I’m new to UrbanSitter but I’ve worked with families through other childcare sites and can provide references upon request. I’m available to start immediately, with weekday afternoon availability and open availability on some weekends!

Hello, My name is Yolee. I am an actress and performer living in NYC. I’ve been nannying for about 3 years. Some things that make me stand out as nannying are my commitment to creative non screen activities, great communication skills, and housekeeping skills. a I have experience with infants and children on the spectrum. I am CPR certified and able to drive (but I don't have a car). I look forward to hearing more about your families needs and how I can be of service! Thanks, Yolee

"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)."
