Hi, I’m Lyric! I‘ve worked at a childcare facility and have nannied for years! I’ve gotten a minor in adolescence psychology and child development, so I really enjoy getting to know each child as an individual and creating an environment where they feel happy and understood! At the childcare center, I worked with children in an active, social environment where I had to be patient, playful, and responsible at the same time! My neuroscience background also helps me understand attention, emotional regulation, learning styles, and how much children benefit from consistency, patience, and confidence-building. Families can expect me to be dependable, kind, communicative, and fully present. I really care about making children feel safe and excited to be themselves! I’m also happy to help with light household tasks, routines, snacks/meals, homework support, and pet care when needed.

Lyric was prompt, responsive, and great with our kids!

Hello! My name is Evelyn. I’m 27 years old and a caring, reliable, and professional babysitter with over six years of experience working with children. I am currently pursuing my MBA at Baruch College in New York after earning my Bachelor’s degree in Sociology. My studies gave me a deeper understanding of child development, family dynamics, communication, and social behavior, which helps me better understand each child’s unique needs and build positive relationships with both children and parents. After attending college and working with children for three years, I proudly served four years in the U.S. Army, where I strengthened my leadership, responsibility, patience, and organizational skills. My military experience helped me become calm under pressure, dependable, and adaptable, qualities that I bring to every family I work with. Caring for children has always been my passion, and I love creating a safe, happy, and engaging environment through play, learning, and positive interaction. In my free time, I enjoy working out, reading, cooking, and staying organized. Spanish is my first language, and I’m happy to speak Spanish with children if parents would like to introduce or reinforce the language at home. I’m proud to have many wonderful reviews and repeat families. References are available upon request.

Evelyn was so nice and sweet with our baby :)

Booked by 17 families in Cliffside Park, NJ

Hi! My name is Rinelle and I am a senior at Hunter College. As an older sister to three siblings, caregiving has always been part of my life. I have been working with children for over 6 years, through various babysitting and tutoring jobs. I am bilingual in English and French and conversational in Spanish. I am also comfortable working with children of all ages! My biggest strength as a caregiver is my ability to adapt and creatively problem-solve, all while maintaining a positive attitude. Furthermore, I am honest, patient, and generous in spirit. I also have several hobbies and enjoy playing volleyball, reading books, and taking photographs, to name a few. All in all, I truly enjoy caregiving and I look forward to serving your family!

"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."

Kamilah W., mom of one

photo of quoted parent Eric

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
