Cayla $25 per hour for 1 child

I have always been passionate about working with children and find true joy in helping them grow and develop. Whether it's through educational activities, providing care, or simply being a positive role model, I am deeply committed to making a meaningful impact on their lives. I believe in fostering an environment where children feel supported and encouraged, and I look forward to pursuing any opportunity that allows me to do what makes me happiest—helping children reach their full potential. I worked as an Early Childhood Educator for around 2 years, providing care and educational support to infants and toddlers. My responsibilities included teaching foundational skills such as colors, ABCs, numbers, and songs through engaging and interactive activities. I ensured a safe and nurturing environment where the children felt secure and comfortable. Additionally, I assisted with feeding, diapering, and maintaining daily routines, while promoting healthy sleep habits by supporting naptime routines. I developed age-appropriate lesson plans to foster developmental milestones and encouraged social, cognitive, and motor skills. My focus was always on creating a positive, trusting relationship with each child, helping them feel safe, cared for, and ready to learn. I am also an active member of a sorority at my college, where I contribute to both the community and my personal development. Alongside my involvement, I maintain a strong academic record, consistently earning Honor Roll status throughout my education. My dedication to balancing my academic responsibilities with extracurricular commitments showcases my strong work ethic, time management, and ability to thrive in dynamic environments.

Elielle $20 per hour for 1 child

My name is Elielle and I’m a mom to a 16 year old teenage boy. I have over 20+ years babysitting my younger cousins, siblings and as well as taking care of my son. I also have 17 year experience working in the healthcare field which range from Longterm care facility, Hospital as well as an Urgent Care Center. As a mom who worked the evening shift for 5 years, I know very well how stressful it can be when it came to finding someone to help during those after school hours while I still had to report to work. I am here to help and I’m looking forward to working with you soon!

Hunter $29 per hour for 1 child

Hi!! NYC/JC preferred, unless transportation is provided (or walkable from train) as I do not drive. I have experience - just over 2 years now! - as an afterschool teaching assistant for elementary school in NYC, grades K-5. It’s something I absolutely love, as chaotic as it can be! We go through snack time, many different kinds of classes, and free choice time, so I am very adaptable and can work through transitions and different activities. I also have 2+ years experience dog and cat sitting - in case there’s any beloved pets in the house that need cuddles, food, or walks! I have no problem staying late for bedtime, cooking, doing laundry, transport, or any cleanup (and, as long as they’re old enough, I’d be happy to involve your kiddo and help develop those skills themselves too)! I have been teaching cooking classes in our program as well, if that’s also a skill you’d like to begin at home. I’m in NJ now, but am perfectly good commuting in as I usually do, since I grew up in the city and currently work there! It would be a pleasure to continue where I love everything about the city and make some new little friends along the way!

Hello! My name is Katherine and I am looking for a wonderful family to work with as a reliable, caring, and trustworthy nanny.I love working with children and helping them learn, grow, and thrive in a safe environment. I understand that leaving your children with someone requires complete trust, which is why I prioritize safety, clear communication, and punctuality above all else. As a mother myself, I completely understand how important it is for a parent to have someone look after their children, ensuring they are safe, well-cared for, and loved."

"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)."
