Hi there! My name is Sharon and I am a graduate of Lewis & Clark College. I have experience working with children of all ages in many different settings. I have worked with children on the autism spectrum in an elementary school as a Behavior Intervention Implementor. Additionally, I worked full-time as a Personal Support Person for a child with Down Syndrome. I have also worked as a full-time nanny for a 3-child household. I am confident in my abilities to care for children with varying abilities with care, understanding, respect, and empathy. I also have tons of experience working at summer camps as both a counselor and art teacher! I love working with kids because it is genuinely so fun, challenging, and rewarding. Childcare is truly the best job out there. Thank you so much for visiting my profile, and I look forward to working with you!

“Sharon is reliable and punctual. She was attentive and patient with my two year old. I'll definitely request her again.”

Hi everyone! My name is Elena, and I’m currently looking for a new family to work with as a babysitter/nanny. I have 3+ years of professional childcare experience, as well as years of experience helping raise and care for my younger siblings. I’m comfortable caring for multiple children at once and have experience with children of different ages, including nannying for a baby. I’m very hands-on and genuinely enjoy being involved with the children — playing, doing activities, going outside, helping with routines, and creating a real connection with them. I also really value getting to know and work closely with the whole family. I’d be happy to share more about my experience and provide references. 😊

“We love Elena! She is so punctual, good with our three kids 10, 7 and 6M plus our dog, Samba! Elena is reliable and committed. Lucky to have her! ”

Booked by 10 families in Brooklyn, NY

Hi there! I’m Debra, a sitter who genuinely enjoys spending time with kids. I’ve cared for children across ages, from infants to school-aged, and I like building little routines and activities that keep them engaged: crafts, reading, a trip to the park or library, or just good play. I offer babysitting and childcare, plus help with light household tasks like tidying and organizing as I go. I’m comfortable with the full range of day-to-day care: feeding, naps, bedtime routines, and homework help for older kids. I bring a calm, dependable presence and pay attention to the details. I’m reliable, communicative, and easy to coordinate with. I currently get around by transit, so I’m a great fit for families who don’t need driving. Outside of sitting, I love reading, singing, traveling, and a bit of interior decorating, interests I happily fold into creative time with kids. I’d love to meet your family and learn how I can help. Thanks for considering me!

“We feel incredibly lucky to have had Irena work with our family. She has been a steady, caring, and deeply reliable presence in our home, helping care for our two daughters with a level of attentiveness and warmth that immediately put us at ease. She has a natural ability to connect with kids and our girls love her. She strikes that rare balance of being both nurturing and structured—our girls genuinely enjoy spending time with her. Whether it’s managing after-school routines, helping with meals, or keeping things running smoothly during busy weeks, she brings a calm, capable energy that makes a real difference. She is also extremely dependable and communicative. We’ve always been able to trust her to show up, follow through, and handle whatever comes up with good judgment and care. That kind of reliability is invaluable, especially for a working family. She’s thoughtful, kind, and takes real pride in what she does—and it shows.”

"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)."
