Jennifer $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! My name is Jennifer, I am caring, responsible, and energetic caregiver who truly loves working with children. I have 3 years of paid experience (5+ years of unpaid experience caring for my family's kids) caring for kids of all ages, from infants to pre-teens and I always strive to create a safe, nurturing, and fun environment where children can learn, grow, and be themselves. Whether it's helping with homework, planning creative activities, preparing healthy meals, or simply offering comfort and a listening ear, I treat every child as if they were my own. I understand how important trust and communication are, and I'm committed to building strong relationships with both kids and parents. I am BLS certified (Basic Life Support ), a non-smoker, have reliable transportation, and I'm more than happy to help with light housekeeping, errands, or pet care if needed. I look forward to becoming a supportive part of your family's routine!

Kojenwa $25 per hour for 1 child

No, I’ve been in hospitality for years. I started my career as a babysitter, and eventually managed to handle several blocks during my university years. I love kids I’ve been around kids all of my life. I’ve been in charge of children, all of my life and have successfully seen my charges into adulthood even spanning into careers. I speak French fluently and love to challenge Kids with imaginary play conversation, engagement and crafting. Because I have a degree in visual arts. I’ve use this as a linchpin for communication and expression. I believe it’s important to use freedom of expression, creative play, and imagination to keep a child happy my inspirations are coming from Waldorf, Montessori educational models as well as Canadian Swedish and French training, Swedish methodology

$18 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Astoria, NY

Hi my name is Bianca and I’m currently a sophomore at CCNY. I have been a caretaker of my own cousins and nieces which gave me experience. Also I have worked in after school activities at a close middle school, so I have treated with different ages too, mostly it consisted on helping them finish their homework and do different activities for fun.

“Bianca has been wonderful with my 6-year-old son. She is kind, reliable, professional, and always calm and attentive. She keeps him engaged through play, takes him to the park, feeds him meals during the day, and leaves our home exactly as she found it. I feel confident knowing my son is in her care and would highly recommend her to any family.”

"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)."
