Paige New York
$22 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! My name is Paige, and I am a current freshman at New York University studying Musical Theatre. I am originally from Chicago, Illinois, where I spent about 7 years working with children. I’m a friendly, responsible caregiver with professional nannying and babysitting experience caring for children ages 3 months to 13 years. I’ve worked with families through a nanny agency and private nanny role, where I supervised activities, prepared meals and snacks, maintained clean play spaces, and communicated closely with parents about their children’s needs and progress. I’m creative, organized, and patient, and I love engaging kids through crafts, reading, games, and outdoor play. I’m also reliable, safety-focused, and enjoy creating a warm, fun, and supportive environment where children feel comfortable and cared for.

Claudia New York
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hello families! As a warm, loving, and responsible caregiver, I focus on building strong, trusting relationships with both the children in my care and their families. I have a deep passion for nurturing and supporting children's growth, and I strive to create an environment where they feel safe, happy, and excited to explore the world around them. I believe that children thrive when they are engaged in constructive play and creative exploration, and I make it my goal to ensure each child is encouraged to reach their full potential in a supportive and enriching environment. I offer flexible care for children ranging from 1 to 16 years old, and as a licensed and confident driver, I am comfortable navigating NYC traffic to support your family’s transportation needs. I also hold CPR and First Aid certifications, ensuring that I am fully prepared to handle any emergency situations with care and professionalism. In addition to my childcare experience, I am fluent in both English and Spanish, allowing me to communicate effectively with a diverse range of families. I am a US citizen with a passport, and I would be delighted to accompany your family on travels, providing additional support whenever needed. I would love to connect with your family and discuss how I can best support your childcare needs.

"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
