I am writing to introduce myself to new families. With over five years of experience providing both childcare and household support, I bring a strong combination of reliability organization and genuine care. I have worked closely , family of two children ages 1 and 7, where I supported their daily routines while helping maintain as a smooth, structured and positive home environment. My responsibilities included preparing nutritious meals, managing bath and bedtime routines, organizing educational and recreational activities, and engaging the children in sports such as soccer and basketball. I also incorporated creative play- crafting, reading, and learning activities- to support their development strengthen our trust based relationship. I take pride in being dependable, proactive, and adaptable. I understand that importance of maintaining safe, nurturing environment while balancing the practical needs of busy household.

Booked by 1 family in Yonkers, NY

Hi! My name is Jessica. I have over 15 years experience with nannying/babysitting as well as children with disabilities. I have been taking care of dogs and cats my entire life (34 years). I’m a very kind, responsible, reliable, positive, hard working, compassionate, patient, calm, caring, organized, clean, tidy, adaptable, easy going, friendly, rational decision maker, friendly and proactive professional who excels at helping others and taking care of households. I began babysitting at 14 and began nannying at the age of 18 through present. I’ve worked with infants, kids, and teens as well as individuals with disabilities of all ages (an area I thrive in). Nannying/babysitting/helping others/ taking care of households comes naturally to me and I absolutely excel in these fields of work with a positive and “go getter” attitude! When I am babysitting/nannying/taking care of pets/households that is my main focus and I do not let anything get in the way of accomplishing my goals or work. Thank you for your consideration and I look forward to hearing from you!

“Loved her! She showed up on time, was super pleasant and Raven loved her. They had ice cream and went to the park. She sent me pix and kept me updated which was great. Would recommend her again ! ”

Cynthia $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I am Cynthia. I'm a 27-year-old college student working towards a career in food science after running my own vegan cake business for the past 4 years. I love cooking, jazz music, and kids! Because of my schooling, I've decided to resort to more flexible, unconventional jobs so I have the opportunity to study and work. I've spent the past 7 years in every childcare/childcare-related work field you could think of (lol). I specialize in private in-home childcare, providing professional and intentional education based care tailored for every child's needs. I am available most weekends! I'm extroverted, patient and affectionate in my approach to all children. I only believe in a calm, rational and loving approach to dealing with our young, as we are the examples that are set before them. I can't wait to meet your family!

Nazia $30 per hour for 1 child

Working in the local school district with 9 years of experience and a diverse list of roles, my passion for nurturing children's growth and supporting families drives my every action. Working with the Teaneck School District allowed me to develop a versatile approach in supporting children from Pre-K to High-school, especially those with special needs. I'm patient, calm, and friendly, and I believe in open communication with parents about their childrens' day. I'm comfortable following the parents' lead in enforcing household rules. My training and experience have equipped me to engage children through educational games, board games, and puzzles. I'm thrilled to care for up to two children between the ages of 0 and 11. I am confident my past experience working with children will make me a perfect candidate for this type of job. Let's embark on a nurturing journey together!

"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)."
