Berlet $30 per hour for 1 child

I've taken care of children for many years and it's a fulfilling, and fun experience. I love working alongside with parents to care for kids of all ages; newborns, infants, toddlers etc., seeing them through the different stages, watching them progress and being proactive in their growth and development is fun, it's interesting, educational and a rewarding experience! It's something I truly love and enjoy doing especially because there are so many laughable, precious and unforgettable moments!

Noela $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Noela and i’m a recent graduate of USC Gould School of Law. I was born and raised in Westchester County, NY and attended Howard University for my undergraduate years. I am relocating back to Westchester temporarily, and would love to help out families with the additional time I have. I grew up with au pairs in my household so I personally have witnessed the ways that a babysitter could be of aid to a child's life, not only as a help to their parents but as a friend to the child. I have been watching kids of ages 0-15 since age 14, which includes picking them up from school, tutoring, and taking them to extracurriculars. During the pandemic I also assisted with remote learning. When it’s nice out I enjoy taking the kids to the park, or playing in the backyard. On other days, I enjoy finding creative ways to keep children engaged with their learning. Additionally, I enjoy reading, hiking, attending concerts, and playing with my 3 year old Mini Cavapoo Milo.

Simone $25 per hour for 1 child

I am certified in cpr and first aid training. Your child/children safety will always be my first priority. I am the nanny who can gently guide your child through learning activities, support their independence and foster creativity through play. Engage in development appropriate activities such as reading, play and arts and crafts. My purpose is to support families and provide a safe and nurturing environment for their little bundles of joy. I am an energetic and reliable nanny, and I have dedicated my life to meeting healthy developmental milestones in the lives of my tiny humans. Over the years, I have had the privilege of working with a number of families, supporting them through the joys and challenges. My experience includes fostering bravery, confidence, critical thinking, individuality, and emotional intelligence in all children under my watchful care. I have helped busy families raise their little ones, and I've helped them to have both, the courage and confidence to return to the workforce, and running their businesses, while the individuals holding the greatest amount of value in their lives, are safe and loved. I have dealt with children of various ages, personalities and interests. I look forward to connecting with you and being a reliable and caring support during this incredible journey of parenthood. Feel free to reach out to discuss how I can assist you and your family.

"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)."
