My name is Myleah and I’m a 19 yo sophomore at NYU. I am so excited to work with you and your family! Child care is my passion, so any child in my care will be treated as so.

Hello! I'm Isabella! I am a compassionate and experienced caregiver with a genuine love for nurturing and supporting children. I have been a nanny for seven years for children ranging from toddler to pre teen. I love to create a fun and exciting environment for kids. It would be an honor to be a part of your caregiving journey and make a positive difference in your kid's lives!

Hi! My name is Margot and I'm currently a School Counseling Ed.M. student at Teachers College, Columbia University. I am offering child care, pet care, and household services. I love working with children and have experience as a babysitter, elementary school literacy tutor, camp counselor for special needs children, and recreation assistant at a children's hospital. In all of these roles, I have used my creativity, empathy, and patience to engage children in play and learning, while maintaining a safe environment. I have babysat for both neurotypical and neurodivergent kids, providing flexible care depending on their needs and developmental levels. I am also happy to assist with homework, projects, and other assignments. I love crafts, music, science experiments, and anything that involves being imaginative and having fun. I also can help with household chores and errands, and I am happy to work with families with pets, as I am a big animal lover!

Hi families! I’m a 30-year-old, reliable, energetic, and experienced sitter transitioning from a corporate career back to grad school for clinical psychology. I have been caring semi-regularly for children since I was 12 years old. I grew up with four siblings—two of whom are 12 years younger than me—and I played an active role in helping raise them. That hands-on experience continued through college and my corporate working life here in NYC with dozens of families (new to UrbanSitter, previously used HelloSitter). It has also recently come full circle as I’ve supported my siblings with their own babies, helping with everything from the sensitive postpartum newborn stage to chasing active toddlers. After several years in the corporate tech world, I’ve left to pursue my master’s degree. This schedule change allows me to return to what I genuinely love: hanging out with kids. I bring the “adult” reliability of a former professional (punctual, communicative, safety-conscious) mixed with the warmth and energy of a seasoned aunt/uncle. I am comfortable with all ages, confident with bedtime routines, and happy to help with homework or light meal prep. Looking forward to meeting your family! Note: I built the majority of my career in journalism, and I love tutoring if any kids need help with their homework or college essays!
