$25 per hour for 1 child

Being part of a child’s happiness, growth, and development is incredibly rewarding, and I truly love what I do. I enjoy helping babies, toddlers, and children reach new milestones, learn new skills, and build confidence. Watching a child accomplish something new brings me so much joy because I know I’m helping them grow into amazing individuals. I am caring, patient, dependable, and attentive, and I strive to create a safe, nurturing, and fun environment for every child in my care. I have over 10 years of babysitting experience caring for children of different ages. In addition to providing quality childcare, I have assisted with household duties, meal preparation, light housekeeping, school pick-ups and drop-offs, and transportation to after-school activities and appointments. I enjoy supporting busy families and giving parents peace of mind, knowing their children are in caring and capable hands.

She’s great with kids, she has a lot of patient. She’s is passionate with job. I strongly recommend her.

Tee $35 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Tee! I’m an SEL teacher in NYC. I’ve worked with kids since I was in high school. I’ve worked with adults & seniors for the past decade as a part-time home care assistant. I enjoy teaching and relating to kids including but not limited to the those with special needs. I have experience with young children and adolescents. The senior population is especially unique to me because although I teach I feel like I become a student with them. They are the foundation and heart of every family and I’m more than happy to give your family the relief you need while you attend to other affairs that require time away from your loved ones. Some services I offer are errands, taking out trash, organizing, transportation, interactive games, reading, and outdoor fun.

"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)."
