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. I’ve been babysitting for 3 years and was a camp counselor in 2025. I have experience working with infants-14year olds, so I’m open to all! My favorite activity to do with children is play pretend, crafts, dancing, and singing! I’m also open to sports and cater to children’s special interests. I can help tutor, cook, paint, etc! I am CPR and First Aid Trained, as well as a mandated reporter.
“We have had Myleah in our family a couple times and she’s been an amazing and reliable babysitter for us. My little ones love her. She arrives on time and asks many needed questions to give my kids the best care. She is dependent and trustworthy. In addition, my kids have great time with her and she even helps around the house and helps kids with homework. Overall very great.”
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 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!

Hi everyone! My name is Maren, I am a recent graduate from the Rhode Island School of Design where I received my MFA in illustration. Now I’ve relocated to Brooklyn with my fiance, and am starting a new chapter of life! I love kids, I taught dance to 15 elementary students for four years in high school, have two rambunctious cousins (7,11) at home who I take care of when I see them and grew up sitting from the age of 12. I love to bring activities, play, and just hear the crazy things kids say. I am a fantastic cook and quite the voice actor when it comes to picture books. Can’t wait to meet you!
