Booked by 4 families in West New York, NJ

Hi! I’m Josee—a caring, dependable sitter with 10+ years of experience working with children from newborns to school-age, including those with special needs. I’ve worked as a daycare assistant, preschool assistant, tutor, camp counselor, and elementary special education teacher, so I’m comfortable balancing both fun and structure. I’m especially confident with infant care, routines (feeding, naps, bedtime), and creating a safe, engaging environment for kids of all ages. I’m patient, attentive, and reliable, and I communicate clearly so parents always feel at ease. I’m also happy to help with light household tasks like meal prep, tidying, and errands to support your family’s routine. Looking forward to connecting with your family!

Sydney $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi I’m Sydney! I’m a senior at Purdue University studying Industrial Engineering. I’m originally from California but am spending the summer in New York for an internship. I’ve babysat on and off for several years, including during past summers in San Francisco, and I genuinely love working with kids. I’m most experienced with children’s ages 4-5 and up, but I’m also comfortable helping with younger kids as well. I’m responsible, patient, and happy to help with homework, activities, bedtime routines, light household tasks, and pets too! I really want to create a safe and fun environment for kids while making things easier for parents however I can.

Yvonne $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Yvonne, and I'm a freshman at LIM College for Fashion Media in New York. Originally from Washington State, I'm currently in the process of making NYC my permanent new home. Growing up in a big family with two younger siblings and lots of cousins has given me plenty of experience with childcare. I've also had the joy of caring for our three family dogs back home. I'm eager to offer babysitting services, including homework help and fun activities, as I've always enjoyed spending time with kids. Additionally, I'm happy to assist with light household tasks such as cleaning and running errands. I'm enthusiastic about meeting new families and providing reliable care. If you're looking for a friendly and responsible caregiver, I'd be delighted to connect and discuss how I can support your family's needs.

I love all our fur covered friends!! Cats, dogs, and every pet one can think of are the best extended family members we have and I love taking care of them. Whether for a walk or to visit and play with, there is nothing better than time with a wonderful furball!!

"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)."
