Booked by 1 family in Woodhaven, NY

I’m 21 and I’ve had plenty of experience with infants and toddlers. I took care of my sister from birth and I also had my own infant classroom and a 2 year old classroom. I have a lot of experience in feeding, changing, nap time, potty training, and developmental activities. I like to babysit and nanny because it brings me joy, kids do all of the fun things lol… play, eat, and sleep. I’ve been caring for children since the age of 11 so I’ve got a few years of experience up my sleeve. I’m okay with pets! I can help with meals and cleaning up, and I’m also happy to care for them in my own home. If the weather permits, I would like to take them to do outside activities, if not I love a good DIY craft. I do share my location and give frequent updates because I know I’d appreciate it. I also like to remind parents that when it comes to your kids you’re never asking for too much so please feel comfortable asking me to do things. Although I have a lot of experience with younger kids I’m 100% okay with caring for older children, I don’t discriminate. If you’d need me for longer than planned or for overnight care just let me know in advance and I’ll let you know what I can do! Thank you for taking the time to consider me, and have a great day! :)

Booked by 1 family in Woodhaven, NY

Hello! My name is Viktoria, and I am a graduate student in Clinical Psychology at Teachers College, Columbia University. I have over 5 years of experience caring for children and supporting their development, and I’m passionate about combining creativity, movement, and learning in fun, age-appropriate ways. I have worked with children of all ages, from infants to elementary schoolers. My experience includes babysitting for families and caring for my nieces, serving as a dance assistant for ballet (2[removed]), and currently working as an Assistant Preschool Teacher at Hollingworth Preschool with children ages 3–5. I love engaging kids through movement, dance, reading, outdoor play, and creative arts. I can also support with homework, basic tutoring, and light meal prep. I am fluent in English and Greek and bring a warm, caring, and structured approach. I enjoy spending time with animals and have experience walking, feeding, and playing with dogs and cats. In my family, we’ve cared for 6 dogs and 3 cats, so I’m very comfortable with animals of all personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I am also happy to provide walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of love and attention, whether with small pets or large breeds that shed.

Anyah $19 per hour for 1 child

I am a scholar enrolled in Borough of Manhattan Community College. I lost my Home Health Aide job due to an unforeseen car accident that left me walking with a cane. Disability has cut me off but I feel that when one door closes another opens for better. I have worked as an after school counselor, a volunteer at many child events, have five well taken care of healthy animals in the home, and have been taking care of kids for longer than I can imagine. Need someone you can trust? Tired of looking? I like longevity as well, so please don’t hesitate to interview me. For school- grade kids I have created lesson plans, homework, I love helping with homework, and I am the distraction they need so you can get your tasks done.

I'm a creative new york native nanny. I have been a career nanny for the last 9 years and has cared for children ages newborn to eight including a set of twin girls! I've traveled domestically and internationally with families. I love to engage children through art , music, culture and put in attention to detail on activities and communication style to each child. I'd describe myself as an excellent communicator, proactive, reliable and punctual and a child whisperer!

Booked by 1 family in Woodhaven, NY

My name is Sanai, and I’m 20 years old. I have over five years of experience babysitting children from ages 0 to 15. I started babysitting at a young age with my family and have also helped at my church by babysitting and teaching classes. A fun fact about me is that I’m CPR certified. I enjoy engaging children in creative activities such as arts and crafts, assisting with homework, preparing meals, and organizing outdoor games. I’m available to babysit from Sunday to Friday, but on Saturdays, I attend church from morning until evening. I am dedicated to creating a safe and enjoyable environment for children.

“Sanai is very kind and timely. She is genuine and professional. I recommend 10/10. ”

"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)."
