Erik 1 review
$23 per hour for 1 child

I enjoy babysitting and have been caring for children of all ages—including newborns, infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids for many years, especially growing up with younger siblings. My experience includes driving children to and from school, organizing crafts and activities, and providing elementary-level tutoring. In addition, I work as a household assistant and am happy to help with cleaning, cooking, running errands, transportation to appointments, and other daily tasks. I’m comfortable working in homes with pets and multi-generational families, including those with grandparents.

Erik was our nanny for 2–3 years, and if we could have taken him with us when we moved, we absolutely would have. He became such an important part of our family. Erik became such an important part of our family. He is an incredible caregiver — patient, loyal, and deeply trustworthy. He prepared meals for our children, handled overnights with confidence, and was always there whenever a situation came up. We always felt completely at ease knowing our kids were in his care. Any family would be so lucky to have him.

$20 per hour for 1 child

Hello my name is Jazmine! I have been babysitting/ house sitting since I was 15 years old. I have experience working with children age newborn to middle school. I have a current 9-6 job in Mid town but am otherwise extremely flexible with evening/early morning hours and or weekends/holidays. In the past I have run school pick up, long weekends away, house sitting/light house keeping, soccer practice drop off, dinner prep or whatever a family might need. I am looking forward to hearing from you!

Jazmine is genuine and caring. It’s been a pleasure watching her care for my baby girl whom she met at just 3 months. Jazmine’s main priority is the safety and well-being of the children she cares for. She is an honest person and trustworthy! Anyone would be lucky to have her care for their children! Thank you for all you have done these past few months! Our little one loves you!

$30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in West New York, NJ

Hello! I’ve been caring for kids since I was a teenager and have over 5 years of professional experience working with children ages 5–12, as well as toddlers. I currently work as a paraprofessional, supporting kids of all abilities, including those with special needs and behavioral challenges. I’m very comfortable managing multiple children, keeping routines structured, and creating a safe, positive environment. I’m patient, calm, and adaptable, and I really focus on making kids feel understood, supported, and confident. I also have experience helping with homework, daily routines, playtime, and light household tasks. I’m currently finishing my bachelor’s degree and pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and easy to work with. I genuinely love working with kids and building strong, trusting relationships with both them and their families :)

I needed help watching my little brothers (5yr and 3yr old) last minute and Gianna saved the day! If you’re looking for someone who is patient and attentive to your kids needs Gianna is the one. My brothers are still asking about her and when she’s coming back! Would and will hire again.

Maria Florencia 1 review
$32 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Flor I’m originally from Argentina 🇦🇷 and I have around 10 years of childcare experience through nannying, tutoring, teaching, and working as an au pair. For the past 2 years, I’ve worked long-term with a wonderful NYC family, supporting their daughter from ages 10–12 as her needs evolved over time. My responsibilities included school pick-ups/drop-offs, taking her to activities, meal prep, laundry, helping maintain routines and organization, creating engaging activities, and providing a warm, dependable, and supportive environment overall. I also helped care for the family dog. In addition to nannying, I have a strong educational background and over 4 years of experience tutoring and teaching English to elementary-aged children. I’ve worked with kids ranging from preschool age to pre-teens, helping with homework, reading, writing, Spanish exposure, creative learning, emotional support, and building healthy routines through a balance of structure, patience, and fun. I’m active, warm, reliable, organized, adaptable, and genuinely love working with children. I enjoy arts & crafts, outdoor activities, sports (especially soccer!), board games, reading, and creating meaningful connections with the kids and families I work with. I’m currently available for summer and long-term positions, and I’m open to nanny, family assistant, and educational support roles. Excellent references are available upon request

Flor is one of a kind, an absolute gem! We hired her to be our nanny, but she turned out to be so much more. She was an amazing teacher, role model, care taker, and most importantly she became an amazing part of our family. My daughter blossomed so much under Flor’s care. Flor’s many talents accelerated my daughter’s reading, writing, math and social skills (manners too!). Flor has an incredible capacity for patience and connection with the little ones and even us grown folk as well:) We entrusted Flor to care for our daughter not only on the day to day but also for overnight stays. The only concern we ever had was upon our return if our little girl was going to eat our cooking again, because Flor’s is out of this world. She is also incredibly trust worthy. We gave her the “keys to the castle” and she never spent a penny that wasn’t pertinent to the position You will never find anyone better than Flor. If you want the best for your child, then look no further.

$27 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 4 families in West New York, NJ

Hi, I’m Brianna and I am a preschool teacher in the Manhattan area offering occasional nannying services for toddlers/pre-K children, housework, and pet care. I’ve been teaching preschool for four years, but have had a lifetime of experience taking care of my younger siblings and cousins. I have a great passion for early childhood education and I love working with little ones. I can help with homework for younger children, housework, and any pets! (I have two dogs and a fish of my own). I love doing arts and crafts activities as well and would always love to spend an afternoon introducing children to different creative outlets! I have experience taking children on day trips, on public transport, navigating the city, and eating in public. I also have potty training experience as well and can help with that transition if needed. I’m a dedicated caregiver who wants to be an extra hand to families who need one every now and then!

Brianna was really professional and was so good at engaging with and interacting with my kid. They were respectful, knowledgeable and warm. Would absolutely hire again.

"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)."
