Valentina $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Valentina. I’m a 22-year-old college student at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City, where I study Advertising and Marketing Communications. I currently live in NYC and am looking for babysitting opportunities with families in the area. I have experience working with children as a babysitter and former camp counselor, caring for kids ages 3–10. I also taught Spanish to elementary school students (grades 1–5) as part of my high school Spanish Language and Global Citizen program, where I created and led engaging, interactive lesson plans in a classroom setting. I really enjoy working with children and bringing a balance of structure, creativity, and fun into their day. I’m comfortable helping with homework, light cooking, errands, and general household support. Outside of childcare, I’m a very active and creative person. I’m a former soccer player and love outdoor activities, sports, and staying active with kids. I also enjoy creative activities like art, painting, film, theatre, and storytelling. I’m open to working with children of different personalities and energy levels, and I always aim to create a safe, positive, and supportive environment where they feel comfortable and engaged.

Dilshoda $30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Astoria, NY

Hi, I’m Dil! I love kids and have spent over 3 years as a preschool teacher, so I’m pretty hands-on when it comes to childcare, everything from daily routines to keeping little ones safe and happy. I’m also first aid and CPR certified, and I speak English, Spanish, and Russian fluently. I have a background in childhood development, and I genuinely care about helping kids grow and feel supported. I’d love the chance to meet you and your family, get to know your baby, and share a bit more about myself. Let me know if you’d like to connect!

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.

"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."

"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)."
