Imani $18 per hour for 1 child

A Bit About Me – My Journey in Childcare Back in 2017, I found myself stepping into the world of childcare, mostly curious (and a little excited) about the fun, messy, and unpredictable world of daycare. What started as just a job quickly turned into something more—I realized how much I genuinely enjoy being around kids and helping them grow. That spark led me to enroll at Medgar Evers College in Brooklyn to study childhood education more seriously. For about 3.5 years, I wore a lot of different hats in daycares—everything from assistant teacher to lead teacher—working with little ones as young as 6 months all the way up to 5 years old. After that, I shifted gears a bit and spent a year in afterschool programs with the older kids (ages 5 to 13) as a group leader. I’ve also been a helping hand for a few families on the side, stepping in whenever they’ve needed extra support. What I love most are the everyday moments with the kids—the silly laughs, the unexpected questions, the small wins that mean everything. No two days are ever the same, and that’s what keeps it exciting. For me, it’s all about being part of a child’s journey, watching them grow, and knowing I played even a small part in it.

Marielle $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Arverne, NY

Hi! My name is Marielle and I am a theater artist and experienced educator who absolutely adores working with kids! I studied theater and writing at Brown University, and taught playwriting to youth in Ecuador on a Fulbright. I have extensive experience teaching kids creative writing and theater games, and I always have new creative (and safe!) game ideas up my sleeve that your kids will adore. I also teach US history part-time at a school in Bushwick, and am a history tour guide on the Lower East Side. I love to awaken kids’ curiosity for learning while babysitting, reading with them, and encouraging them to start creative projects that will stimulate their academic growth! I speak fluent Spanish and French, and I can contribute to your child’s learning in these areas. Safety is also my utmost priority, as well as checking in with parents to make sure the specific needs of your child are being honored. I have 5 years of experience teaching Special Olympics, and have worked as an executive functioning coach, so I am well-versed in adapting to different learning styles. Working with me as a babysitter is about keeping your kids safe, healthy, and more than just entertained. I aim for every session to be uplifting for children’s emotional growth, joyful, and educational!

Morgan $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello, I would first like to thank you for acknowledging my profile as well as taking time out your day to give me a chance for this opportunity. If you are looking for a reliable, hardworking and experienced nanny you have stopped at the right person. I am very intelligent, sweet, caring and enjoy playing the violin most of the day. Not only do I have years of experience, I have the strength and patience to keep up with more than three children. Most of the families I worked with usually consist of two or more. Once you have mastered different strategies on how to care for a child, it becomes very easy to meet their needs without them having to tell you. You began to know exactly when to feed, change and even how to console them when sick. Just like us adults, children have feelings and may wake up having a bad day so I believe it is very important to be supportive, listen and learn to be that shoulder to lean on without yelling or getting frustrating at them. I absolutely love working with all my families. Me being compassionate for others helps me to bond with not only the children but the families as well. I have tag teamed with grandparents, play dates with other parents as well as family friends. This job has been an amazing experience still after so many years.

Mara $30 per hour for 1 child

My name is Mara. I am a mother of four boys, ages 33, 27, 25, and 16, so caring for children has always been a big part of my life. I truly enjoy being around children and helping them feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I have many years of experience caring for children. From 2006 to 2016, I cared for a little girl in Freeport, Maine, from the time she was a baby until she turned 10. During the COVID-19 period, I helped a family in New York with their two children. Most recently, I worked with a family in Long Island City from 2022 until July 2026, when they relocated. I am a caring, patient, dependable, and trustworthy person. I treat the children I care for with the same love, attention, and patience that I give my own children. I enjoy becoming part of a family and being someone parents can feel comfortable and confident relying on.

Besma 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child

I'm a caring, responsible, and active caregiver with experience working in schools and private homes. I love helping children learn, play, and feel safe.

We had a wonderful experience with Besma. She cared for our children with incredible kindness, patience, and constant positive energy. She was always smiling and full of joy, creating a warm and happy environment. Every day, she organized a thoughtful program of activities, keeping the kids engaged, active, and happy. Her ability to plan, play, and interact with the children with such enthusiasm truly impressed us. I highly recommend her to any family looking for a trustworthy, organized, and loving babysitter. Thank you Besma!

"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)."
