Manuela $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Manu, with the 6 years of experience caring for children from 0 to 13 years old. My top priority is to create a safe, loving, and respectful environment where every child feels free to express themselves and grow at their own pace. I'm also trained in first aid, so I can handle any emergency with confidence. I'm a patient, organized, and disciplined person, but always with a warm and caring approach. I truly enjoy spending time with kids, whether it's playing, learning through fun activities, or simply being there to support them. I believe in giving children the space to make their own choices, and I'm always there to back them up along the way. Building trust is essential to me, and I strive to create a positive, supportive relationship with each child I care for. If you're looking for someone who's responsible, caring, and dedicated to helping your kids every step of the way, I'd love to be part of your family's routine and support you however I can.

Lilly $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Hoboken, NJ

Hello, I'm Lilly ! At Marymount Manhattan College, I am a junior majoring in Psychology and minoring in Dance. I was born and raised in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, where I also worked as a counselor, mentor, and choreographer for children all around the Seacoast. I worked at local youth theater organizations including Upside Arts and Musical Arts where I have taken on some of these roles. I have also been babysitting on and off since I was 15 for adolescents of all ages ranging from 1-6 years old. I would contribute my optimistic and diligent attitude. Ensuring the comfort and safety of my child/children in their surroundings is a top priority for me. In order to make my child/children’s experience memorable, I will use my creativity and leadership abilities to make sure they engage in every activity. I am excited to get started and get to know the children I will be connecting with in the future.

Sam $25 per hour for 1 child

When I was a kid all I ever wanted was to have an older brother to talk to, mess around with, help me with my homework, and show up for me. The girls my parents would hire to watch us were more than capable and very good to us, but they'd never really play with or fully engage with me. Eventually, I began serving a few families and really found my spot in working with kids. You'll forgive me for saying so - but, they're often easier to spend time with than many adults I know. It costs nothing to make a kid's day if it makes yours. I have 9 years of hands-on experience in supervising and engaging with children. Seeking opportunities that allow me to do what I love and have a meaningful impact on others. My personality could be described as enthusiastic, engaging, and earnest. My skills include tutoring, cooking, and engaging in play. And in my spare time I enjoy playing sports, several instruments, and chess.

Ayodele $25 per hour for 1 child

With over twenty years of experience caring for children across a wide range of ages and needs including medically complex and special needs care. I bring a calm, reliable, and highly professional presence to every home and team I support. My background is unique in that it bridges caregiving, household management, personal assistance, and military service. As a U.S. Navy veteran, I developed a strong sense of discipline, responsibility, and crisis response that continues to guide my work. More recently, I have provided specialized one-on-one care for a child with complex medical and developmental needs, supporting daily routines, therapy sessions, medical coordination, and emotional regulation with both structure and compassion. In addition to my childcare experience, I have worked as a House Manager and Personal Assistant, managing schedules, travel, confidentiality, and day-to-day home operations. I am known for being proactive, highly organized, and deeply respectful of family dynamics and privacy. I understand that trust is the foundation of this type of work, and I take that responsibility seriously. I bring warmth, consistency, and professionalism to every role. My goal is always to create a safe, nurturing, and structured environment where children can thrive and families feel supported. I would be honored to contribute my experience, dedication, and care to your home.

"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."

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)."
