Nusrat $20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Astoria, NY

Hi! My name is Nusrat. I’m a native New Yorker, born and raised in Brooklyn, and currently a graduate student at NYU Langone Health, where I’m earning my master’s in Healthcare Administration. My background blends years of childcare experience with a strong passion for helping others—qualities I bring into every home I work in. I’ve worked with children of all ages, from newborns to preteens, and spent much of my high school and undergraduate years both babysitting and tutoring. These experiences taught me how to support children academically, emotionally, and creatively. I’m constantly amazed by how intuitive and insightful kids are, and I love being part of the moments when things “click” for them. As an older sister, caring for younger siblings and cousins has always been second nature to me. Families often describe me as patient, loving, and highly attentive to detail. My goal is always to create a warm, engaging, and safe environment where kids feel comfortable, confident, and excited to learn and play. I’m also very comfortable with pets—I have a cat of my own and have worked in homes with dogs as well. Whether you need help with after-school routines, homework support, early morning drop-offs, creative play, or infant care, I bring reliability, compassion, and a calm, steady presence. If you’d like to see my resume or learn more about my experience, please feel free to reach out—I’d love the opportunity to support your family and be someone you can trust and depend on.

Hi! My name is Liz, and I offer childcare, pet care, and household services. I’m 24 years old and originally from Virginia! I’ve been house sitting and pet sitting since I was 12 years old and have consistently been trusted with extended stays ranging from 1 to 6 weeks while families were away.

I’ve also been babysitting since I was 18 and have cared for children ranging from 6 months to 10 years old. I love creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment for kids, whether that means being an energetic play buddy, cooking dinner, helping with bedtime routines, or telling great bedtime stories! I pride myself on being dependable, communicative, and attentive, and I truly enjoy helping families feel comfortable and supported.

"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)."
