Booked by 12 families in Woodhaven, NY

Hi! I'm Roxy. I grew up in Austin, have a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Texas, and am currently looking for new families to sit for in New York. I started babysitting more than a decade ago and have since held positions as a nanny, a childcare provider at a pilates studio, a substitute teacher, and a tutor both in-person at an under-resourced middle school and for distance-learning during COVID. I'm certified in pediatric first aid and CPR, comfortable with pets, and have a clean driving record. Some of my favorite things to do with kids are bake, read together, work on art projects, and get outside to the park or playground. I believe in instilling a sense of compassion, independence, and social justice in children from a young age by creating an environment where they feel loved, heard, and supported. Looking forward to meeting you and your little ones!

Roxanne was great! Professional, reliable, and communicative.

My name is Tania. I have so much energy and will become your babies best friend. I’ve always loved working with kids, animals, anything artsy, creative and Early Childhood Development. I have been a nanny for the Upper East Side, Brooklyn and Queens. I am thirty years old and I posses nearly twenty years’ progressive experience caring for children of all ages. I know I can help your child exceed in their education and character. I love being able to help children learn and grow to their full potential. Pets are okay! I like to ask parents if they'd like a quick update while they're out. Sending a quick message and picture to let them know that everything is going well has been part of what's helped me create lasting relationships with so many families. I am organized and thorough, I have a calm and patient manner and I understand the dangers around children and what they should not be doing. I have worked with kids witch have the softest of voices. As well as kids with the biggest of smiles and loudest of voices. I have gained a solid experience caring for children of all ages in a broad variety of stimulating activities. Nannies create an impact that is unforgettable.

Tania has been working with our family full-time for almost a year, and I feel incredibly lucky that we found her. As a new parent, I was worried about leaving my son and going back to work. Tania seamlessly fit into our family and made the transition more comfortable.Our son adores spending time with her. Even when he had a bit of separation anxiety, the sight of Tania would make him ready to bid us goodbye for the day! Tania is a strong communicator. She ensures that we are updated with cute photos throughout the day. If there are ever any questions or concerns (on our part or Tania's), we promptly address them together. Tania regularly asks about our parenting approach as new things come up and strives to reinforce it. It feels like we are a team. Tania's energy is unmatched. She is always willing to come early and stay late, even at the last minute. Tania keeps things educational and interesting while giving our son space to safely explore. She respects his likes/dislikes.

"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)."
