Jemima $17 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I'm Jemima, a Human Biology student at Hunter College with plans to become a nurse and pediatric speech-language pathologist. Some fun facts about myself are that I am a self-taught guitarist, enjoy reading, and love working with children. Caring for children has always been something I genuinely enjoy, and I love creating a safe, fun, and enjoyable environment where kids can learn/ grow and feel comfortable. I have experience caring for children, from toddlers through middle school ages through summer camp programs, assisting in a kindergarten classroom, volunteering at Vacation Bible School at my church, daycare, and babysitting my younger cousin. I'm happy to help with homework as I love to learn, prepare crafts, games, and meals in addition to bedtime routines, and keeping children engaged while parents are away. I am an incredibly creative person and love to help with any household tasks. I am CPR/AED certified for both infants/children and adults, and safety is always my top priority. Families can count on me to be patient, dependable, responsible, and attentive to each child's individual needs. These experiences working with kids have strengthened my passion for not only supporting children's growth and well-being but also wanting to pursue a career working with the pediatric population as I know I can make a difference. I'm happy to commute throughout Brooklyn, Manhattan, and Queens, and I'd love the opportunity to support your family!

Maura $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Maura, and I’m a 27 year old childcare professional with over 12 years of experience. As the oldest of five, I naturally stepped into a caretaker role early on, beginning to babysit at 15. From there, my passion for working with children grew! I spent my high school years helping neighbors and family friends, continued to nanny throughout college, and supported students with homework and after school routines. After graduating in 2020, I ran a learning pod for four young children, where I helped guide their virtual schooling and created a structured, supportive environment that felt as close to a classroom as possible. I’m comfortable caring for children of all ages, from infants through school-age, and I have experience balancing the needs of multiple children at once. I’m also happy to help with household tasks and am very comfortable with pets. I’ve cared for families with dogs and cats and love including them in the daily routine. I aim to bring warmth, patience, structure, and fun into every home I partner with. I’d love to get to know your family and support your children as they grow!

Tzivia $35 per hour for 1 child

Being brought up in a large family, I have always felt a deep relevance to the world of childhood. Being around and working with many ages I discovered a deep connection to and strong interest in the earliest stages of human life. I find it a profound privilege to provide the gentle, attentive presence that babies need to feel safe and secure as they begin to explore their world. In my most recent role as a 1:4 infant caregiver, I had the honor of caring for a group of four babies starting when they were just seven weeks old. Being a consistent part of their first year allowed me to bond deeply with each child and support their unique developmental leaps with patience and compassion. I believe that every child deserves to be seen, heard, and nurtured with individualized care that respects their pace, personality, and at home lifestyle. I am now transitioning primarily to in-home care to offer families a more personal, dedicated experience. Whether you are looking for a long-term addition to your family's routine or simply need a reliable hand for one-time sitting, my goal is always the same: to provide a nurturing environment where your child feels completely loved and supported. I am excited to continue contributing to the beautiful early stages of life in the comfort of the child’s home, where they can grow, feel secure, and thrive.

Sinem $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 3 families in Oceanport, NJ

I’ve been caring for children since I was twelve years old, and with over 25 years of experience, I’ve had the joy of working with infants, toddlers, and children up to their teenage years. Babysitting has always been more than just a job for me — it’s something I truly love. I’m known for being patient, loving, and dependable. I always strive to create a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where kids feel comfortable and happy. Whether it’s reading stories, helping with meals, keeping up with housework, or maintaining a consistent routine, I’m happy to help with whatever is needed to make your day easier. I have open availability and am flexible with my schedule — I can work days, evenings, or overnight as needed. While I currently don’t drive, transportation will not be an issue, and I always make sure to arrive on time and ready to work. I would be grateful for the opportunity to care for your children and support your family’s needs. Thank you for considering me for this position — I’d love to meet and talk more about how I can help. [removed] feel free to text me first then call me so we can talk and of course message me too!

"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)."
