$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Brooklyn, NY

Hi there! I’m a 25- year-old nanny currently (for 1.5 years) caring for two amazing kids, aged 3 and 4 years old. Spending time with children brings me so much joy, and I’ve dedicated much of my life to roles that involve working with kids. My childcare experience includes: • Live-in nanny for three boys (ages 7, 10, and 13), managing busy schedules and lots of driving. • Nanny for a 2-year-old girl for 6 months. • Summer camp counselor for 5 summers, creating fun and engaging activities for kids aged 4–12. • Private tutor for children (ages 7–11) for 4 years, helping with math and English. • Party princess, face painter, and kids’ yoga teacher, adding magic and creativity to events. • Big sister to my 5-year-old sibling, caring for her since birth. I’m passionate about creating a safe, fun, and educational environment where kids can thrive. I’m currently looking for occasional babysitting opportunities Besides working with kids I have a degree in architecture and have worked in this field as well.

Thank you! Sara was great!

Monica $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Monica, I’m an ex Au Pair/nanny and I’m offering child care, pet care and household services. I’ve been a nanny in the states since 2019 but I’ve been taking care of kids since I was 17 years old in my home country Bolivia.(yeah I do speak Spanish too 😊). I have experience with kids from different ages, and my usual responsibilities were taking them to school, preparing breakfast, lunch,snacks, helping them with homework, taking them to after school activities or going to the park. In addition to that I can help with light house chores, cleaning or running errands.

"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)."
