Yaira $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I'm Yaira - a warm, open-minded, and patient caregiver with a heart full of love for children. I'm 23 years old, proudly Colombian, and fluent in both English and Spanish. With over 2,000 hours of hands-on childcare experience, I've cared for children of all ages and always approach my work with empathy, responsibility, and joy. Before becoming an au pair, I spent a year volunteering at a daycare, where I discovered my passion for supporting little ones. I'm CPR certified, a strong swimmer, and hold a degree in Social Communication, which has strengthened my ability to connect meaningfully with kids and parents. I believe in respectful, loving, and mindful parenting, and I bring that philosophy into every home I work with. I'm also a non-smoker and do not drink alcohol. If you're looking for someone reliable, kind-hearted, and truly passionate about nurturing your child's development, I'd love to connect. Let's chat and see if we're a great fit!

Hi, my name is Yulimar. I have been caring for children since I was 16 years old, including babies. I am a responsible, with senior, and trustworthy person. I love spending time with children, playing with them, and doing painting and arts and crafts activities. I can also take them to and pick them up from school.

Lea $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Lea, and I have several years of experience working with children of different ages. I worked in a daycare setting for four years and also have previous babysitting experience. I also have experience working as a behavioral technician, which has helped me develop skills in patience, communication, understanding different behaviors, and creating a safe and supportive environment for children. I am currently a senior at Montclair State University studying Family Science and Human Development, and I plan to pursue a career in social work after graduation. Working with children and families is something I genuinely enjoy, and my education has given me an even better understanding of child development and individual needs. I would describe myself as patient, dependable, caring, and easygoing. I enjoy keeping kids engaged through games, crafts, outdoor activities, homework help, or simply spending time doing the things they enjoy. I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable with the person caring for their children, so I always try to be communicative, responsible, and respectful of each family’s routines and preferences. I am looking to connect with families who need a reliable babysitter for occasional or recurring care, and I would love the opportunity to get to know 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."

"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)."
