Mariana $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Mariana! I've been working as a nanny since I was 18 (now I’m 25), and caring for children is definitely my favorite job. I've worked with newborns, babies, toddlers, and older kids, including twins and families with multiple children. I also had the opportunity to care for three children on my own while their parents were traveling in Europe, which gave me even more confidence managing busy routines, keeping everyone on schedule, and making sure the kids felt safe, happy, and loved while their parents were away. I'm comfortable with everything that comes with caring for kids—feeding, diaper changes, naps, meal prep, bath time, bedtime routines, school pick-ups, and keeping little ones happy and on schedule. One of my favorite things about working with children is watching them grow up. Seeing a baby take their first steps, say their first words in Spanish, or learn something new never gets old to me. Those little moments are what make me love this job. I'm bilingual (English & Spanish), patient, and easy to work with. I also don't mind helping with children's laundry, tidying up after the kids, or preparing meals and snacks. My goal is always to make parents feel comfortable knowing their children are safe, happy, and well cared for. I'd love the opportunity to get to know your family!

Andreana $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi I am a 36yo online student at Eastwick College during the day ( taking semesters off to work) and a recent part time senior caregiver. I was a sitter to my 2 nieces and nephew from 2[removed] as my sister went through nursing school. Here is where I gained my experience for childcare before moving into senior care. I love to study astrology, read history books, meet new people in the city and hang out with friends. I am very outgoing, social, reliable, driven, and consistent. I am currently in senior care with a client who has special needs that I can no longer provide. Now I'm looking more into expanding my experience working with children, in which I truly enjoy. I look forward to working with you and providing the utmost love and care i possibly can to your children/child.

Griselda $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi — my name is Griselda, and I'm offering child care in NYC. I love being a caregiver and have been watching over newborns, infants, toddlers, and school-age kids for 24 years. My responsibilities have included daily routines, playtime, meals, and speaking Spanish together so kids can build their language skills." I bring warmth, patience, and energy to everything I do, and I'm always attentive to the children in my care. I deeply understand the responsibility that comes with caring for someone's child — every family's trust means everything to me, and I care for each child's well being as if they were my own grandchildren. I am available to work weekends and evenings, and travel with the family when needed. Spanish is my native language, and I'm also fluent in English.

I've been nannying and babysitting for years and have experience caring for children ranging from infants to middle schoolers in both full-time and part-time roles. I love planning fun activities, getting kids outside, doing crafts, reading books, helping with homework, and creating a safe, engaging environment where they can have fun and thrive. I'm CPR certified, dependable, organized, and currently available for evenings and weekends in NYC.

Raccia Skye 1 review
$22 per hour for 1 child

Nice to meet you! I’m a 26-year-old with a wealth of experience in childcare and informal education. I have worked as a sitter/nanny for several families with school-aged kids (mostly 4-15) over the past 10 years, including children with disabilities. I am a former sleepaway camp counselor, lifeguard, and swim instructor. I have also tutored elementary students in English while abroad and worked as a teaching assistant in my local synagogue throughout high school, though I am not a particularly religious person. Some of my interests include arts and crafts, the outdoors, board games, reading and writing, cooking, and baking. I am also a cat owner and grew up with dogs so I am more than happy to help out with pets! My affect has been described as warm, wise, and practical, and I pride myself on my strong ability to place myself in another person’s shoes, as well as being a very responsible problem solver who is quick on their feet. I have also worked in food service, which can attest to my ability to work with a positive attitude even in fast-paced, high-stress situations, though caring for your child/ren will likely be much less stressful than working in a New York City restaurant! I would love the opportunity to talk and meet your family to see if we would be a good fit for one another’s needs and preferences.

Raccia is a detail-oriented, thoughtful, careful, and punctual sitter. They have solid communication skills and if anything in my directives aren't clear, they ask thoughtful clarifying questions. Raccia offers their ideas and input when needed or requested. They are great with follow-through and have been extremely consistent and reliable. Both of my kids really like and appreciate Raccia. I do as well. :)

"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)."
