Abigail 1 review
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, My name is Abigail, and I’m currently looking for part-time, full-time, or occasional childcare, pet care, senior care, and house care work in Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Queens! I currently live in the Carnegie Hill area, so families near this area would be a bonus! About me- Childcare: I have years of experience caring for children of all different ages! I have the most experience caring for children 10 and under, but am happy to care for children of any age 🙂. I have a large family and have always been the designated babysitter, but outside of my family, I have cared for families with children of all different ages. I believe strongly in supporting children’s development, both logically, creatively, and emotionally. Through my care, I prioritize keeping your children safe, following any family guidelines/specifics for care, and supporting your children in growing into their truest, happiest selves. I recently graduated with my degrees in environmental studies and theatre performance, and studying psychology and child development has always been a passion of mine. Since I was very little I have always wanted to be a mom, so while I am still young I have been building my toolkit to be the best mom I can be, and in the meantime, the best babysitter I can be. Senior care: I have always valued caring for seniors and providing a comforting and kind presence to be around. Near the end of my nanas life, I was one of her primary caretakers, and I ensured that her last little while here was nothing short of magical. Pet care: I've had dogs and cats in my household ever since I can remember, and have cared for rabbits, snakes, and fish outside of my own household. I love animals of all kinds and believe that they all deserve proper care, attention, love, and training.

We’ve known Abigail for about 5 years now and she has been such a reliable, lovely, caring caretaker to our girls and our Dalmatian. We trust her but most importantly, our daughters (and dog!) absolutely adore her. She has a bit of magic about her that children love and she would be a wonderful addition to anyone’s family.

$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 3 families in West New York, NJ

I have several years of hands-on experience caring for children, pets, and households, and I truly enjoy helping families run smoothly. Over the years, I’ve cared for children of all ages — from infants to preteens — which has taught me patience, creativity, and flexibility. I babysat regularly for a 1-year-old and 6-year-old for four years, as well as for another family with a baby under one and a 4-year-old for two years. I also cared for a 3-, 5-, and 7-year-old for two years, and during high school, I was a daily after-school sitter and driver for an 8- and 10-year-old. In addition to childcare, I’ve dog-sat for many families throughout high school and college and have experience house-sitting, running errands, and providing general household support. I’m responsible, reliable, and organized, but also warm and easygoing — someone kids feel comfortable and safe with. I love creating a positive, fun environment while keeping things structured and running smoothly for parents. I also love animals.

"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)."
