Sophie 1 review
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hi there, I'm Sophie!! I'm a lifelong nanny and babysitter living in NYC. I recently quit my office job and am in and out of the city over the next few months but looking for part time and one-off work while I'm here. I love spending time with children and can't wait to meet yours:) A little about me: For two years during a gap in my college journey I worked as a nanny for a newborn and preschooler. I was responsible for the daily care and safety of the baby boy from his very first days home. I gained countless hours of practical experience changing, bathing, feeding, sleep training, and entertaining. When needed, I transported his 3-year-old sister to and from school, and helped with household tasks including meal-planning, cooking, cleaning, laundry, and organization. Observing and facilitating both children's development over time was one of the greatest privileges of my life so far. I felt gratified every day knowing I was making a tangible difference in their lives, as well as aiding in the overall well-being of the family. I take child care very seriously and am always working to get better at my job. I'm interested in Early Childhood pedagogy and take great care in creating developmentally appropriate activities for the children I work with. In recent years, I’ve worked part time for various families with children ranging from 6 months to twelve years old and have at times been responsible for up to 4 children at a time. I'm a confident, warm, and responsible caregiver who genuinely loves spending time with children.

Sophie is this generation’s Mary Poppins. She cared for my three year old and my newborn for over a year and made the most magical impact you could imagine. Every day was a fun new activity that she dreamed up for my three year old, and for my newborn there was no one air rather have caring for him. She leads with so much love, and is consistent, clear, and immensely capable with children. She also is a fantastic cook and baker! I could write essays about how amazing Sophie is. I wish she had not moved to New York and I’m trying to get her to move to where I am now because that’s how incredible a human being she is.

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

Hi! My name is Trent, and I’ve always had a heart for caring for others, whether it’s children, seniors, or anyone who needs support. I studied Drama and Education at New York University, where I developed a deep understanding of child/adolescent development, learning styles, diversity, and inclusion. I am also CPR and First Aid Certified for all ages. I’ve worked with kids of all ages, from toddlers to teens. I grew up with a younger brother with Down Syndrome, Autism, and Type 1 diabetes, and I have been a caregiver to him my whole life. I have also worked at a special needs kids' gym, which has given me a lot of experience in watching children of all abilities. What I love most about caregiving is the chance to make someone’s day a little easier, brighter, and more joyful. Building trust with families and forming real connections with the people I care for is what keeps me inspired every day. When I’m not caregiving, you’ll usually find me outdoors, reading a new book, or working on a creative project. I’m reliable, compassionate, and always ready to help. I’d love the opportunity to support your family—thank you for considering me!

Booked by 1 family in Hoboken, NJ

I love working with kids and being outdoors. I am vaccinated and boosted. I have a little experience in tutoring and am a recent college graduate. I would be able to help out with homework as necessary. I am almost fluent in Spanish. I feel very confident in working with children with special needs. I have experience being an aquatic therapist and teaching kids with various disabilities how to swim. Additionally, I was a social coach in high school and worked with students with special needs in helping them with homework, teaching them social skills, and job skills. I have been a lifeguard for 5 years and have my CPR certification. I have taught swim lessons to all age groups as young as 2 and as old as 18. I have taken a babysitting course at the Seattle Childrens when I was younger and have babysat quite a bit over the years. I also was part of a program in college to volunteer with homeless children at an after school program. This included serving them dinner, helping with homework and some fun activities. I have always loved dogs and have been around them my whole life. I feel very confident working with dogs of any size/breed. I volunteered at a dog shelter for many years and have had experience with timid and active dogs. As for cleaning, I have always helped around the house with chores and am willing to clean anything given the proper supplies.

Jordan was prompt, professional, and communicative.

Jonah $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Jonah and I'm a 20 year old NYU student from Miami, FL. I am studying finance at NYU Stern with a focus on the entertainment industry. I grew up with a sister who was six years younger than me, and often took care of her while my parents were busy. I've been to summer camp from ages 7-14, was a counselor-in-training at 15, then a counselor at 16. Having been both a camper and a counselor, I know what it is like to be the kid and the adult in caretaking scenarios. I've been lifeguard certified and CPR-Pro certified, having lifeguarded at the camp I mentioned. I'm a great cook, asian cuisines being my favorite to make. I'm happy to help kids with their homework, or give tutoring sessions, especially in writing or math. I play guitar, and would gladly offer practice lessons for kids who are starting to play. I have a pet dog who I love very much, and would be so excited to care for other pets. I am eager to meet your children and help them find fun activities to enjoy their summer vacations!

"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)."
