Wyatt $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I'm Wyatt, I'm 23, and I recently graduated Columbia University. I am offering child care, senior care, and household services. I love being a babysitter and have lots of experience with kids, both as a babysitter (since middle school) and as a summer camp counselor (throughout high school and college). I have minimal experience with toddlers and no experience with infants, but would love the opportunity to gain experience with these ages. As a babysitter, my responsibilities have included driving to/from school, tutoring, and even drum lessons! I love doing magic tricks, playing games, and doing arts and crafts! I also can work as a household assistant and cook, clean, and run errands. I have been a caretaker for my own grandparents and am happy to cook, drive to appointments, or do other tasks!

$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 3 families in East Elmhurst, NY

Hello, families! My name is Andyleidy, but you can call me Leidy (pronounced like “Lady”) I’m fully vaccinated and graduated from high school in 2023. I attend BMCC majoring in nursing,I am not enrolled this semester, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability. I’m reliable, organized, a great communicator, and always willing to adapt to each family’s unique routine and parenting style. Whether you need occasional, part-time, or full-time care, I’d love the opportunity to become someone your family can count on. I have years of childcare experience, caring for infants, toddlers, and children since I was 12 years old by babysitting my younger siblings and cousins. I’m a patient, responsible, caring, and dependable nanny who genuinely enjoys helping children learn, grow, and have fun in a safe environment. I also have experience tutoring children, helping with homework, and cooking—one of my favorite hobbies! I love planning fun, age-appropriate activities while also encouraging independent play when it’s appropriate. I am fluent in both English and Spanish and enjoy staying active. I love sports, especially volleyball, and bringing that energy into games and outdoor activities with kids. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to assist with light housekeeping, running errands, meal preparation, and other household tasks to help make your family’s day a little easier. I’m also pet-friendly and have a puppy of my own, so I’m very comfortable around pets. If you have any questions or would like to get to know me better, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I would love the opportunity to build a trusting relationship with your family and care for your children with kindness, patience, and respect.

Laura $27 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Laura and I’m a first year master’s student at Columbia University. I am offering child care, pet care, and household services. I’ve been babysitting for my own family and family friends since I was a pre-teen! I am the second of 5 kids, so I grew up with a good amount of childcare responsibilities, and I also worked as a nanny in high school. I also had experience in college working with preschoolers through Jumpstart. I love spending time outdoors with kids (parks, playgrounds, or home outdoor space!), and doing arts and crafts, games, or even helping with homework. I own a beagle-mix who I’ve had for 5 years, and I’m very experienced with taking care of dogs. I also have experience taking care of cats. I can also help with a range of household tasks, like cooking, cleaning, and running errands. However I can help out, I’m your girl!

"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)."
