Rosmy $25 per hour for 1 child
Hi! My name is Rosmy, and I recently graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology. I have experience working with both children on the autism spectrum and neurotypical children, so I’m comfortable adapting to each child’s unique needs and personality. I’m patient, responsible, and energetic, and I love creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment for kids. Whether it’s helping with homework, playing games, doing crafts, or keeping a consistent routine, I always make sure children feel cared for and supported. Parents can count on me to be dependable, attentive, and committed to their child’s well-being while making sure they have a great time. I look forward to getting to know your family!
Rebecca $25 per hour for 1 child
Hello, I'm Becky, based in Astoria. I'm a former nanny and substitute teacher. I have worked with all ages from newborn up! I'm currently working with Zing Kids! as a recess coach and Afterschool Collective as an art and S.T.E.M. teacher for kindergarten and 1st grade kids in LIC. I have lots of free time to look after your kiddos nights and weekends and days schools are off. I also have a local rate for my Astoria families. Please reach out to discuss!
Nathaly $23 per hour for 1 child
Hi! I’m Nathaly, a warm and caring nanny with over 5 years of experience creating safe, fun, and loving environments for children. As an online college student soon to graduate, I have a flexible schedule and a passion for helping families thrive. In addition to my childcare experience, I’m skilled in household tasks like meal prep, light cleaning, and organizing, so you can relax knowing everything is taken care of. I’m CPR/AED certified, so you can always feel confident that your little ones are in safe hands. Plus, I absolutely adore pets and would love to care for your furry friends too!
Katherine $28 per hour for 1 child
Hello! My name is Kat and I’m a grad student at NYU. I am an enthusiastic and experienced baby sitter eager to meet your family. I love working with kids and believe with a conscious balance of exuberance and structure I can provide your household with a memorable and smooth experience. I’m a firm believer in “getting on a kid’s level” literally and figuratively and my utmost priority is always your child’s safety. At the end of the day I want to make sure your kid has a blast! I love baking, singing, dancing and most of all storytelling (I’m an actor when I’m not hanging out with kiddos) so there will be never a dull moment. I am CPR certified and have over ten years of experience with newborns, infants, toddlers and school age children. I’m comfortable with animals of all shapes and sizes and am happy to perform light housekeeping.

Booked by 2 families in Leonia, NJ
Hi! I’m Ellie, originally from Memphis, TN but I just moved to NYC a few months ago. I’ve been nannying and babysitting for years, and I also worked as an overnight camp counselor for three summers, so I’m very comfortable with kids of all ages. I’m super responsible but also love having fun, whether that’s playing outside, doing crafts, or just keeping kids entertained. I’m also a big pet lover and happy to help with things around the house like cleaning up, errands, or walking the dog.
“Highly Recommend Ellie (Isabelle) She was punctual, communicative, friendly and my daughter loved her! Will work with her again”

"UrbanSitter is my go-to for quality sitters! I can book weeks ahead of time or easily find a same-day sitter when in a bind. I even hired a part-time nanny during a daycare transition. Customer service is helpful and babysitters respond in a timely manner."
