Solana $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Solana. I currently attend Fairleigh Dickinson and I’m offering my services while on break from school. I am an experienced and dependable babysitter with over six years of hands-on childcare experience caring for children of various ages. Throughout the years, I’ve developed a strong understanding of children’s needs, routines, and personalities, allowing me to create a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment. I’m known for being patient, attentive, and trustworthy, with a natural ability to connect with children and make them feel comfortable and supported. I take pride in being reliable and responsible, ensuring parents feel confident and at ease when their children are in my care. I’m skilled in maintaining daily schedules, preparing meals, assisting with homework, and organizing fun, age-appropriate activities that encourage learning and creativity. My experience has taught me how to handle challenging situations calmly, communicate effectively with both children and parents, and adapt to each family’s unique needs. Babysitting isn’t just something I do—it’s something I genuinely enjoy, and I’m committed to providing high-quality care that supports both children’s growth and parents’ peace of mind.

Taylor $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi there, my name is Taylor! I am a rising junior at the Clive Davis Institute of Recorded Music at New York University, and I have extensive experience in childcare. Last summer, I worked as a dance and movement teacher for campers ages (3-13) at Twin Spring Farm’s Day Camp & Preschool in Ambler, Pennsylvania. I’ve also served as a camp counselor at various theater camps and regularly babysit for families in the Abington, PA area and Brooklyn, New York. Growing up in a family of educators—my mother is an elementary school teacher—has shaped my approach to working with children and strengthened my empathy, patience, and communication skills. I am available all summer and would love to lend a helping hand with household tasks, animal care, and childcare!

Mara $30 per hour for 1 child

My name is Mara. I am a mother of four boys, ages 33, 27, 25, and 16, so caring for children has always been a big part of my life. I truly enjoy being around children and helping them feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I have many years of experience caring for children. From 2006 to 2016, I cared for a little girl in Freeport, Maine, from the time she was a baby until she turned 10. During the COVID-19 period, I helped a family in New York with their two children. Most recently, I worked with a family in Long Island City from 2022 until July 2026, when they relocated. I am a caring, patient, dependable, and trustworthy person. I treat the children I care for with the same love, attention, and patience that I give my own children. I enjoy becoming part of a family and being someone parents can feel comfortable and confident relying on.

"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)."
