Amani $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Amani, and I’m a caring, patient, and dependable caregiver with several years of experience working with children and families. I have experience caring for children ages 3–17, including children with autism, as well as caring for elderly individuals. I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable and confident when leaving their children in someone else’s care. I always strive to create a safe, positive, and comfortable environment while making sure children feel heard, supported, and cared for. I enjoy doing age-appropriate activities with children such as arts and crafts, reading, playing games, going for walks, and simply spending quality time together. I’m also comfortable helping with routines, meals, keeping children entertained, and making sure they are safe and comfortable throughout the day. I currently work part-time with a family that I have been with for about two years, and I’m happy to provide a reference from them. I’m reliable, flexible, patient, and genuinely enjoy working with children. Outside of caregiving, I enjoy cooking, listening to music, going for walks, attending Bible studies, and trying new activities. I look forward to getting to know your family and providing your child with the same patience, care, and attention I would want for my own family.

Booked by 1 family in Brooklyn, NY

I am punctual, hard working, and communicative! I have worked with kids as a party princess and a babysitter. I just got off a cruise ship contract where I worked with the elderly. I have also pet & house sit for animals and spaces of all kinds!

“Sophia was wonderful! She arrived on time and she brought some activities for the kids. I loved the way she engaged with them. It’s obvious she has cared for children before and that she genuinely enjoys being with them. She’s also bright and articulate. A super good role model.”

Anna $19 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Anna — I’m 23, originally from Ireland, and currently based in New York. I have several years of experience caring for children of different ages and I genuinely love creating a calm, fun, and safe environment for them. I’m very hands-on and enjoy planning age-appropriate activities like arts & crafts, drawing, puzzles, board games, reading, and outdoor play. I’m responsible, punctual, and very comfortable following routines, bedtime schedules, and house rules. I recently graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Business and Management, and through my work experience I’ve developed strong communication skills, reliability, and a high level of professionalism — all things I bring into childcare as well. Families I’ve worked with would describe me as warm, trustworthy, and attentive. I’m happy to help with light tidying related to the kids, meal prep, homework support, or pet care if needed. I’m currently available for occasional, part-time, or full-time roles and would love to connect with a family looking for someone dependable and kind.

Najah $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Najah. I am 21 years old with multiple years of hands-on childcare experience in daycare settings and private babysitting. I’ve worked with infants, toddlers, and school-aged children, and I truly enjoy building bonds with every child I care for. I’m patient, responsible, and very nurturing. I love creating fun activities, helping with homework, supporting routines, and keeping children engaged while parents are away. Safety is always my #1 priority, and I communicate clearly with families to make sure everyone feels comfortable. I’m available for part-time, occasional, or full-time care, and I’m confident I can be a reliable and positive addition to your family’s daily routine.

"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)."
