Hi! My name is Amaly. I’m a Fort Lee High school graduate and 19 years old. I love art, music and playing games. I am currently enrolled for Ramapo College for the fall term. A lot of my time is spent keeping my house tidy, doing chores, and socializing ! I just moved to Howard Beach in Queens.

Lucia $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, My name is Lucia and I’m a student attending Caldwell University. I come from a big family and have four younger brothers, who I’ve cared for. I began babysitting when I was 14 years old and have experience with infants up to the age of 15. I've cared for up to five children in the past, but I prefer babysitting two or three children at a time. Some of my responsibilities have included, bath time, bottle feeding, burping, playtime, reading, playing outside, arts and crafts, painting, meal preparation, laundry, light housekeeping, driving to/from school, play dates, homework help and tutoring. I have some experience with potty training. I am fully vaccinated (including booster) and willing to show proof. Thank you.

"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)."
