Rosaria 2 reviews

Booked by 1 family in South Richmond Hill, NY

Hello! My name is Rosaria, and I’m currently a student at NYU studying Theater and Social Sciences. I’ve always loved working with kids and creating environments where they feel comfortable, safe, heard, and able to be themselves. I have experience working with children of many different ages through babysitting and as a camp counselor at a music summer camp, where I worked with campers ages 8–16. I led improv games, arts and crafts activities, music-based activities, and helped create a fun and welcoming environment for all campers. Working with children has also always been a part of my life because my mom has been a full-time nanny for over 30 years. Since I was 16, I’ve helped assist her with caring for children and babies of all ages (with permission from families), and through that experience, I learned how important patience, communication, attentiveness, and trust are when caring for kids. I love engaging kids through reading, imaginative play, sketching, LEGO builds, card games, crafts, and making stories feel interactive, creative, and fun. I cook and meal prep for myself often and genuinely love cooking and baking. I’d always be happy to prepare meals/snacks or even make cooking a fun activity with your child when appropriate! I also have experience cat-sitting and caring for pets, so I’m very comfortable in homes with animals as well.

Rosaria has watched our children (ages 5 and 8) several times, and we’ve always had a great experience. She’s reliable, communicative, and easy to work with. Our kids immediately connected with her and are always excited when she comes over. She does a great job keeping them engaged, whether they’re playing games, reading, or using their imaginations. We especially appreciate how present and attentive she is with them. It’s clear she genuinely enjoys working with children. We trust her completely and would happily recommend her to other families.

Katherine $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Kate! I am a first-year Masters in Social Work student at NYU living in Brooklyn. I graduated from Vanderbilt in 2021 with a degree in Cognitive Studies and African-American and Diaspora Studies. I’m just getting started on Urban Sitter, so I’m happy to provide references from families I’ve worked with in the past. I have 11 years of babysitting experience with kids of all ages, genders, and personality styles. I have experience with kids with Downs Syndrome, autism, and other special needs. This has included children with aggression and other severe behavioral problems, and I am confident in my abilities to meet these patterns with patience and compassion. I love kids and empowering them to practice autonomy while also being someone they can depend on. I’m looking for part-time babysitting opportunities during weekday evenings and weekends! I’m looking forward to meeting you!

Hi there! I'm a senior in the Childhood Education program at Hunter College. I'm compassionate, patient, curious, and playful. I have extensive experience caring for children ages 2 to 11. Additionally, I have cared for newborns, infants, and children with special needs. I'm passionate about providing a safe and nurturing environment that fosters positive development for children. I also love learning about children's interests and engaging in play with them. Looking forward to connecting with you and your family!

Julia did an incredible job. She is attentive and communicative. She demonstrated her experience caring for one of my cats who is sick. I recommend her for anyone looking for a sitter, especially longterm.

Margarita $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m 25 years old and I work at children’s parties on weekends, doing face painting, balloon twisting, and other entertainment activities. I’ve been doing this for over three years. I also offer dog sitting in my home together with my fiancé. I love being around kids and animals — they bring so much joy and warmth into life! 🐶 I’m looking for extra opportunities to work in my free time, which is why I decided to create a profile here. My schedule is quite flexible, although I’m usually busy on weekends. I’d love to chat and discuss all the details personally! ✨
