Hello, My name is Elodie, and I am a native of France, fluent in English, French, and Spanish. I hold a degree in Fashion Design, Applied Arts, and Marketing from a renowned fashion and art school. I am reliable and available to care for your children. In addition to being a certified rescue diver with valid First Aid and CPR certifications, I am also an animal lover. I am here to make your life easier, ensuring you can enjoy a worry-free night out or a productive workday. Availability: Full-time, part-time, evenings, and weekends. My goal is to enhance your children’s proficiency in the French language, culture, education, and traditions. I also aim to cultivate their artistic senses by exploring art through museum visits, crafts, and music. Throughout my studies and freelance work, I have cared for several families over the past fifteen years, with children ranging from 2 months to 14 years old, both in Paris and New York. I possess strong organizational, artistic, and communication skills, which I believe are crucial attributes of a good babysitter. I am flexible and adaptable, with extensive knowledge of child psychology and development. Above all, I am committed to nurturing and encouraging healthy emotional and physical development. I will always ensure your children are safe and having fun through activities such as games, art, and sports. I find immense joy in taking care of children and teaching them. I regularly engage in sports, love swimming, and enjoy classical music (I played the violin for seven years) and yoga. I am passionate about healthy vegan cuisine, art, fashion, and reading. I am fun, bubbly, responsible, and caring. I believe in creating a positive, happy environment for children, where they feel protected and can thrive. I hope my experience and skills encourage you to contact me so we can meet in person. If you have any questions or require references, please feel free to reach out. Kind regards, Elodie

Elodie came to our rescue when a work event came up at the last minute. She was warm and engaging and immediately won over our 3 year old. She brought crafts along that our daughter was extremely excited about. She was extremely communicative and shared updates throughout the evening -- our daughter had a wonderful time with her!

Hi families! My name is Carolyn, and I have a genuine passion for caring for children and helping them grow in safe, supportive, and positive environments. I currently work at Champion Elementary in Daytona Beach in an ESE Pre-K blended classroom, where I assist students with a variety of learning and behavioral needs. But I am in New York for the summer . I was recently nominated for Paraprofessional of the Year by the Volusia Council for Exceptional Children and currently serve on the Conference Committee for the Florida Council for Exceptional Children. I am also enrolled at Daytona State College pursuing my AA degree through Volusia County’s Pathways to Teacher Program as I continue working toward becoming a certified teacher. I am coming up to NY for the summer of 2026 . I have experience caring for infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and elementary-aged children in both school and childcare settings. I enjoy creating engaging activities, helping with routines, supporting learning, and making children feel comfortable and cared for. Families often describe me as patient, reliable, caring, and easy to communicate with.

Hi families! Thank you for taking the time to take a look at my profile☺️ My name is Kailyn, or just Kay! I am currently seeking part time, occasional, along with date night positions. New to UrbanSitter, however on multiple other platforms! I recently was a sitter to 2 girls on the UES (9&12)! I have experience from ages 3m -13y, Including children with ASD, Cerebral Palsy, and Down syndrome( UP syndrome✨)I have been employed at a sensory center, and I've also worked with long term families and enjoy building lasting relationships✨Caregiving has always been a part of my day to day, being the “babysitter” for family friends. So, naturally, I turned to childcare as a profession rather than a “hobby” at the age of 15! I am very personable, compassionate and caring and always take communicating with both parents and child(ren) as a priority. Some of the things I enjoy to do with my minis; I do like to go on a walk(weather permitting), play at the park, do arts/crafts, the library(Amazing classes+📚). Of course, I am open to follow which ever activities you would like me do with your child(ren).In addition to childcare, I am more than happy to lend a hand with household assistance, whether it is running errands, cooking(*When cooking in your home I am open and more than happy to accommodate dietary needs*) and/or tidying up around and laundry. I also love pets so a hand with pet care is not a problem; dog/cat sit, walk/feed :) ! I'm always looking forward to connecting with new families. It's important that we both feel we're the right match for one another! If you have any questions, please let me know, I look forward to hearing from you! Interests outside of caregiving⚖️- Content creation, trying new food places, shopping, wellness, brooklyn bridge pier walks, ALL the museums🖼️🎨🤖 - Spanish language speaker🇩🇴 -Basic Sign language 🤟🏽 References available upon request. Thank you!

Hi families! I’m a sitter with many years of childcare experience and a background in behavioral therapy. I earned my degree from the University of San Francisco and spent two years working in behavioral therapy, supporting children with diverse needs. Originally from New York and raised in Los Angeles, I spent the past six years in Oregon before recently moving to New Jersey. I’m excited to connect with local families and offer reliable, compassionate care. I love helping kids learn, play, and grow. I’m looking for part-time or occasional babysitting opportunities while I get settled in the area.

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 :)

"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)."
