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!

Trinity $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi!! - My name is Trinity, and I am an actor/ performer here in New York, coming from a background of musical theatre and comedy with a touch of writing on the side. I have a heavy performance background in a variety of arts such as singing, dancing, and acting. I've been a student of the craft for the majority of my school and business life. I love performing, and I love the flexibility that comes with being an actor. I’ve spent lots of time around kids in childcare settings and also in teaching settings. As a side hobby, I also teach dance classes for adults and children. I love teaching dance classes and getting to work with people of all ages! I’m also a huge animal lover and have 2 beautiful cats of my own! Whether it’s kids, cats, or adults, I find it most important to meet you where you’re at so we can really work together.

Booked by 1 family in Weehawken, NJ

My name is Elizabeth, and I am a dedicated, compassionate caregiver with many years of hands-on experience supporting elderly and disabled clients. As a young senior and a proud grandmother of two adorable children, caregiving comes very naturally to me. I am nurturing, patient, and attentive, and I truly enjoy providing comfort and support to those who need it most. Throughout my career, I have assisted 5–7 elderly and disabled clients with daily living activities such as bathing, dressing, toileting, and mobility support. I am experienced in monitoring and documenting vital signs, observing changes in a client’s condition, and reporting updates to healthcare providers to ensure the best possible care. I also take pride in maintaining a clean, safe, and comfortable environment for every client I serve. I bring strong skills in medication administration, vital sign monitoring, first aid, and electronic health record systems. On a personal level, I am known for my patience, empathy, excellent communication, active listening, and problem-solving skills. I work well independently and as part of a team, and I am committed to treating every client with dignity, respect, and kindness. I believe these qualities make me an excellent fit and I look forward to the opportunity to bring my experience and heart to your Family.

Samuel $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Sam! I love working with children of all ages but have the most experience with kids 3-12. I’m originally from the Pacific Northwest but moved to New York to explore job options in childcare, fashion, public relations, and the arts. I learned more about how much care, time, and attention children require after caring for a 2 and 5 year old for three years. In high school, I was a camp counselor for my school’s outdoor program and a swim instructor for children aged 3-8. I also consistently volunteered at kids basketball games, book fairs, field trips, and art classes. Post high school, I studied marketing for two years at Walla Walla Community College. I then completed the AmeriCorps NCCC program, where I traveled with a team to Texas and Colorado to assist communities in need with long term disaster recovery, mold remediation, environmental conservation, and more. One of the main reasons I love working with children is their innate love for exploration, creativity, and learning: just like myself! I believe that children need a strong, safe, and trustworthy support system to thrive and I will provide all of those qualities. I love to paint, sing, dance, read, write, craft, spend time in nature, and explore new places- all of which are traits that I directly apply when working with children. Through AmeriCorps, I was given the chance to volunteer weekly at a boys and girls clubs and that was my favorite volunteer opportunity by far. I helped the kids move through their activities, identify various emotions, set boundaries with peers by saying “stop!” or “i do not like that!”, and focusing on creating a safe space for them to feel heard, understood, and regulated. In addition to childcare, I am experienced in caring for dogs, cats, chickens, beta fish, bunnies, and geckos (my family had a lot of pets!). Additionally, having worked several customer service jobs and maintained the cleanliness of spaces throughout the years, I am highly experienced in housekeeping services and running errands.

"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)."
