Hi! I’ve got over 14 years of experience as a nanny/babysitter. I love to be active, get outside and creative with kids! I’m a big fan of walks and park play dates! I have a lot of experience with children of all ages. The most recent family I worked with regularly has three children; a five-year-old, a 22-month-old and a three-year-old. I was with them from the birth of the youngest and was also their nanny when they welcomed their third. I lived and traveled with them. I have stayed in touch with many other families I have babysat for over the years and still work with them (date nights, events, etc). Please feel free to contact me whenever you feel if you are interested. I look forward to hearing from you. Best, Rhylie

Hello. My name is Fernanda, I am 33 years old, and I am originally from Sao Paulo, Brazil. I used to work as a teacher in Brazil. But I came here to the US in 2018, to study and work as well. Both my parents are teachers too. I have a degree in education and worked in the area for the past 11years(mostly with kindergarten and toddlers but I do have experience with older and younger kids). In the US, Ive been living in NYC for the past 3 years. Here, I worked as a live in nanny and took care of 2 kids(4,6yo). While in Miami (2[removed]), I took care of 3 kids. (4months, 9 months and 2 year old) - I can share all references!! I am patient, and nice w kids. I do not believe in time outs. For me, the best way to deal with kids is talking to them and make them understand what’s wrong and what we can do together to solve the problem and make things better. Also, I have experience with autistic kids, twins and triplets, new borns(bottle feeding, Sleep training, Change diapers and bath) and I used to give math private classes for 7-9yo I have a CPR certificate(in person2018/renewed online 2020) and I have an ESL course at Columbia University (NYC), along with a ADHD course from the university of NY. I like to do crafts, cooking and play board games with the kids, also spend time outside is my favorite! I think spending time with kids is always fun because every and each kid is different and we learn a lot of things together. In my free time I like to go to the park, the beach and, I also like watching movies. I have a dog and a cat and I love spending time with them - my dad is a biologist and so I was always around animals growing up! (: Good communication is the key for me to have a great work relationship I am more than happy to help with and whenever I can. Feel free to message me!

Dear Families, I’m Joycelyn, a certified NYS teacher for grades 1–6 and currently teaching 2nd grade. This is my second year teaching in the DOE. In 2023, I earned my Master’s in Teaching and Curriculum in Elementary Education from Columbia Teachers College. I’ve been working with children for over a decade—starting as a babysitter at 13 and later in daycares, preschools, elementary schools, day camps, and after-school programs. Along the way, I’ve gained experience with different teaching approaches, including Montessori and Cooperative Learning, and have also worked with children with special needs such as autism and ADHD. I grew up in Brooklyn and live in Park Slope. Outside of teaching, I enjoy traveling, cooking, arts and crafts, and reading thriller novels. I love sharing these interests with children, whether it’s through creative projects, problem-solving activities, or simply exploring new ideas together. Above all, my passion lies in creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where every child can thrive. ____________________ Booking Policies: *I kindly request the full fee for the entire scheduled duration, even if you return earlier. * I kindly request that for same-day cancellations, a fee of 25% of the booking fee be paid. Thank you in advance for your understanding, I look forward to working with your family.

Hi! I’m Roxy. I started babysitting almost 15 years ago and have since worked as a nanny/babysitter and in education, from classrooms and private tutoring to developing an SEL curriculum for elementary school-aged girls. In this time, I’ve worked with children of all ages and have really enjoyed getting to know the different milestones, interests, and needs that come with each age. I really enjoy getting to know each child and finding ways to keep them engaged while supporting their development. Depending on age, some of my favorite ways to spend time with kids are getting outside, reading together, doing art projects, baking, and finding activities that match their interests. With babies and young toddlers, I especially enjoy paying attention to what they’re learning at each stage and finding fun, age-appropriate ways to support their development, encourage their growing independence and communication skills, and keep them interested and learning as they grow. I believe in helping children develop curiosity, compassion, independence, and social awareness from a young age by giving them space to express themselves and explore the world around them, while also helping them learn to understand and regulate big feelings and navigate relationships with others. I have a bachelor’s degree and speak some Spanish and a little Arabic. I’m also infant and pediatric CPR/first aid certified, comfortable with pets, and have a clean driving record. I’m happy to provide references from families I’ve previously worked for. I’m ideally looking for full-time or near-full-time work with a baby or toddler who isn’t in school yet, but I’m also open to part-time care, nanny shares, and one-time babysitting when my schedule allows. Looking forward to meeting you and your little ones!

"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)."
