Emmy $25 per hour for 1 child

My name is Emmy, and I live in Stuytown. I graduated from Amherst College two years ago and moved to the city. Since then, I've found myself missing spending time with children. I've been babysitting and nannying for most of my teenage and adult years. I have experience nannying for elementary schoolers and middle schoolers, as well as babysitting for children of all ages. I'm also comfortable watching pets, especially dogs. I'm originally from Seattle. I love cooking, animals, crafts, and yoga. I majored in Political Science and Computer Science at Amherst College. I'm currently working for a software company. I'd love to help care for your kids in the evenings and on the weekends.

Emma $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Emma!! I’m a 22 yr old based in the East Village and have experience caring for children from newborns to 12 years old! I first started babysitting at 14, helping with my younger siblings, and since moving to NYC I’ve worked with multiple families across Manhattan! I’ve supported families with school pickups, tutoring, music lessons, crafts, dinner, baths, and bedtime routines. I’m also happy to help with light housekeeping, and meal prep. I love creating a fun, safe, and supportive environment, and I’m flexible to meet the needs of each family! I’d love to connect and answer any questions you may have! ☺️

Victoria $28 per hour for 1 child

My name is Tori, and I have worked with children in many different capacities for 15 years. I started coaching gymnastics when I was in highschool and have never quit teaching or caring for children since then. I began as a gymnastics and dance teacher and then started babysitting regularly while dancing professionally. I then became a teacher at a tutoring center that assisted neurodivergent children with school activities and development, I worked my way up to lead teacher and worked closely with a mentor to expand my knowledge in childhood development and teaching critical reading skills. When I moved to New York I became a part time nanny and began teaching gymnastics and dance again, in private studios. I also taught in afterschool programming for dance and gymnastics and theater. While in New York I have been the director's assistant for a children's music company, I have taught, and I have most recently been a full-time nanny. I am compassionate, able to adjust to different setting quickly, and my experience enables me to work with many different children and families. I love to create a warm, creative, and safe environment for children to thrive in! I have experience with children from 2 months to 17 years of age.

"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)."
