Ilana $20 per hour for 1 child

I’ve babysat for my younger cousin for around 6 years. I would pick him up from school, sometimes take care of him overnight, and sometimes drive him home. Overnight care included making dinner, making sure his clothes were clean, and making breakfast. I also am CPR/First Aid certified

Raquel $22 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I am an active, extroverted, and creative sitter. I love being around kids and teaching them new things. I also enjoy watching their personalities grow and become more unique. I am comfortable with children of all ages from infant to middle school, but I have worked most of my time with toddlers and elementary. I have also worked with multiple children and pets as well. I do aid in children’s laundry, meal prep, and am available to assist in activities if needed. I also drive and enjoy taking the kids out to do fun activities that we may find.

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."

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)."
