Hannah Elizabeth
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Hannah, I’m 23, and I’ve always had a natural connection with kids and animals. Growing up in a Montessori environment, I spent a lot of time helping with younger students through after school care, crafts, and fun activities, which really shaped my patience and creativity. I’ve also babysat for friends’ children, mostly ages 5 and up, but I’m comfortable around younger kids as well. I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life, so I’m very confident when it comes to pet care. I’m experienced with walking, feeding, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m attentive to their behavior and needs, and I truly enjoy spending time with animals just as much as I do with kids. I aim to create a safe, calm, and fun environment for both children and pets, and I treat every home with respect and care.

Diana Bayonne
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hi - I'm Diana and I'm currently a behavior technician at Success on the Spectrum. I am offering childcare, pet care, senior care, and household services. I love working with kids and have been doing so since college, where I was an America Reads tutor for NYC public schools, working in elementary/middle school settings (acted as a teacher assistant essentially). After college, I worked as a paraprofessional for the Jersey City board of Ed for two years, working with middle school-aged special needs students. I then transitioned to being an EMT for four years, working for different medical transport companies dealing with primarily elderly patients. Upon leaving EMS, I became a behavior technician providing in-home services to autistic children after-school while working during the day as a paraprofessional in a special needs elementary/middle school. I recently left both jobs to work full-time at a clinic for autistic children as a behavior technician. I am good with crafts and tutoring and can work as a household assistant to clean and run errands. I own two small dogs and two cats and have been a pet owner since 2014.

"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."

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
