Taylor $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi there, my name is Taylor! I am a rising junior at the Clive Davis Institute of Recorded Music at New York University, and I have extensive experience in childcare. Last summer, I worked as a dance and movement teacher for campers ages (3-13) at Twin Spring Farm’s Day Camp & Preschool in Ambler, Pennsylvania. I’ve also served as a camp counselor at various theater camps and regularly babysit for families in the Abington, PA area and Brooklyn, New York. Growing up in a family of educators—my mother is an elementary school teacher—has shaped my approach to working with children and strengthened my empathy, patience, and communication skills. I am available all summer and would love to lend a helping hand with household tasks, animal care, and childcare!

Hi there! I'm Elizabeth. Im 22 years old and live in South Slope :). I recently graduated from John Jay College Of Criminal Justice. I have been caring for children for 8 years as a babysitter and as the oldest of 2 siblings. I have a lot of experience working with toddlers and grade school children. I’ve spent half my life watching over my younger twin sisters who are deaf. They’ve taught me ASL along the way, so that’s a plus! I truly love working with young kids, and I approach each child as an individual who I get to help grow and teach. When I'm not in school or babysitting, I enjoy biking and watching shows. I'd love the opportunity to get to know your family and would be happy to provide references if requested.

I highly recommend Elizabeth as a babysitter. With her warm demeanor and responsible attitude, she creates a nurturing environment for children of all ages. Parents can trust her to prioritize safety while engaging kids in fun and educational activities. She is reliable, punctual, and has a natural affinity for connecting with children. Rest assured, Elizabeth will provide excellent care for your little ones, giving you peace of mind while you're away.

Having Dani watch Lilah was an absolute joy. My daughter adored her. I'm a single mom with a 10 year old who has to hustle in LA so I really needed an attentive and loving sitter and Dani answered that call. Was great at communication, very warm, patient, and attentive to my little girl. There was even an occasion that a shoot ran late and I had to have Dani stay after hours and she was so understanding and accommodating. A literal lifesaver. I can tell she loves what she does. I really think Lilah built such an attachment to her!

Laura 2 reviews
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Laura, and I’m a bilingual Argentinian artist based in NYC. I have over 10 years of childcare experience, starting when I was 18 years old caring for young children, and for the past 8 years in New York I have worked with families as both a babysitter and full-time nanny. My experience includes caring for children from 2 months old through 13 years old. I also worked as a full-time nanny for 2 years caring for two toddlers, helping manage daily routines including meals, naps, playtime, outdoor activities, bedtime routines, and developmental support. As an artist, I love incorporating creativity into childcare through arts and crafts, imaginative play, storytelling, and engaging hands-on activities. I enjoy creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children can feel comfortable and supported. I also have experience with pet care and am very comfortable in homes with dogs, cats, and am open to pet sitting opportunities. I’m open to babysitting, nannying, recurring care, date nights, school pickups, and family support. Looking forward to connecting with a great family!

We've been lucky to know Lau since my daughter was just two months old, and she's been a trusted sitter for our family over the past seven years. Over that time, she's become part of our family's village, and I can't recommend her highly enough. She is kind, creative, fun, and genuinely loves being with kids. She she gets down on their level, plays, creates, and treats them with respect. My daughter and her friends adore her, listen to her, and she has a calm, effortless way of building trust while still providing structure. Lau is reliable, trustworthy and a great soul to be around. Any family would be lucky to have her.

"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)."
