I’m energetic sitter with around 5 years of experience in childcare. I’m currently a preschool teacher during the week. I also do specialize in working with special needs children. I love doing puzzles and reading with children. During the spring I love taking them out to do different activities in the city. I’m open to any overnight jobs where any extra chores would need to be complete. Feel free to message me and I can send you some references. Thank you for trusting me with your child!

$35 per hour for 1 child

Hey, my name is Shania, and I'm from Queens, New York. I am a caring and loving individual who enjoys taking care of children. Growing up in high school, my first jobs were working in daycare and summer camps to help with the children, and I've been a private nanny for the past two years, dealing with children ages one to ten. I am a really adventurous individual who adores nature. I enjoy being a nanny because I am able to assist parents by providing a comfortable, enjoyable, imaginative, and consistent environment for their children to enjoy.

Had Ms Shania babysit my daughter for 2 weeks and my daughter cried when she left. She's a great babysitter and is very attentive. I'd recommend her to anyone. Whenever, I come back to New York, I'll definitely have her babysit my baby girl.

Hi there! My name is Jenny and I am originally from Seattle but I lived in Boston for 10 years and now in Brooklyn for the last 3 years. I am a professional vocalist and perform for high end wedding and events in the city and country. Caring for others and making someone else's day or week a little bit easier makes me happy. I want to live in a world where people are caring, emphatic, and create real connections with each other. I've been baby sitting and helping others since I was a kid - I nannied for 2 boys in Newton, MA for about a year after college (ages 2 and 6). Any after school pickup, homework help, and dinner help - I'm your girl! If your child is at all interested in music, I would love to be a part of that. I love all animals and I feel comfortable cleaning, cooking, and driving. I have a clean driving record, a safe car (subaru) and a caring bubbly demeanor. I haven't been in childcare for a while because I've been professionally singing most of the time but I love the brooklyn community and figured I could get involved again in my own neighborhood.

Jennifer is fantastic! She is extremely professional and reliable, and I had no issues leaving her with my daughter. She was able to handle dinner and bedtime with our toddler, and was great in their playful interactions. I highly recommend Jennifer!

"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

"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)."
