Mawa $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Mawa, and I'm a childcare provider based in NYC. I have a year and a half of professional experience working with toddlers and preschoolers (ages 1-4) in a daycare environment, along with individual care for families. Prior to that, I also cared for children of family friends. I'm CPR certified and comfortable assisting with a variety of daily needs. I'm an energetic and playful caregiver who loves having fun, but I also believe in maintaining structure and routine to support a child's growth and sense of security. Some of my favorite activities to do with children include reading, exploring outdoors, and anything hands-on or creative. I strive to make every day engaging, safe, and full of opportunities for learning. Currently, I am looking to work with families within the NYC area only. I'd love to connect and see if we're a good fit!

Yasha $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Yasha! I’m a full-time nanny with 5+ years of experience supporting children from infancy through early adolescence—including two years with Jumpstart’s early literacy program and three years as a private nanny to high-profile families in NYC. I’m CPR, First Aid, and AED certified for infants, children, and adults. I specialize in providing calm, emotionally attuned care for children navigating transition—whether that’s a new sibling, a big move, or loss in the family. My background also includes: School pickups, after-school routines, Bedtime transitions, travel prep, homework help, creative play, and extra-curricular support. I’m also a graduate of NYU with a professional background in film, theatre, and fine art. I love sharing my creative passions with the families I work with—don’t be surprised if your little ones start directing, writing, or starring in their own kitchen musicals. I bring warmth, consistency, and clear communication to every household I join. Currently available for full-time or high-retainer roles in the NYC area. Let’s connect and see if it’s a good fit!

Corinne $25 per hour for 1 child

I have experience babysitting for multiple families, caring for children of different ages, and supporting their daily routines in a safe, fun, and structured environment. I'm responsible, patient, and energetic, and I enjoy creating activities that keep kids engaged while also making sure they feel supported and comfortable! In addition to childcare, I was a peer mentor in college, where I helped guide and support fellow students academically and personally. That experience strengthened my communication skills and the ability to connect with others in a supportive and understanding way. I have a BFA in Musical Theater as well, so anything music or performing arts related I love to share/teach children. I also have experience caring for pets, including feeding, walking, and making sure they are well looked after. Overall, I'm dependable, caring, and I take pride in being someone families can trust!

Sofia $28 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Sofia, a 24-year-old caregiver with several years of hands-on experience supporting children — especially toddlers and preschoolers — through developmental therapy, babysitting, and child-led learning. My background includes working with children in early intervention settings using D.I.R./Floortime approaches to support cognitive growth, sensory regulation, emotional expression, and motor planning. I’ve worked one-on-one in homes to help kids meet milestones, manage transitions, and navigate big emotions through connection and co-regulation. In addition to my therapy experience, I’ve provided consistent nanny and babysitting care for families with infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids. I’m a strong believer in respectful, responsive caregiving, and I love creating environments where children feel safe, seen, and celebrated. Whether it’s building sensory bins, planning simple routines, or supporting nap time with calm consistency, I bring warmth and intention to my work. I’m also a great fit for families looking for someone reliable, grounded, and flexible. I currently work a hybrid part-time schedule which gives me flexibility Monday through Friday. I’m comfortable working in homes with pets, following Montessori-inspired or gentle parenting approaches, and being a calm presence during high-energy moments (tantrums don’t scare me!). Some quick facts: -I have my own reliable transportation and am punctual -I’m based in the Hudson/Bergen County area and open to nearby travel -I'm Bilingual (spanish speaking) -I love sensory play, nature walks, music, and simple creative activities -I’m open to long-term roles, part-time care, or summer-only positions Whether you're a parent looking for structured, engaging support during the week, or someone who needs reliable, developmentally-aware care for your little ones, I’d love to see if we’re a match. Thank you for considering me!

"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)."
