Jalani New York
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Jalani and I’m offering child care, pet care, and household support. I started working with kids in high school while helping at a daycare, and since then I’ve spent a lot of time caring for my goddaughter and friends’ children of different ages. I focus on making sure little ones feel safe, comfortable, fed, and genuinely looked after. I’m patient, attentive, and I love creating a smooth, happy environment for the kids I’m with. I also have experience with pet sitting, especially dogs and cats, and have stayed with pets for several days at a time. I’m reliable with routines, feeding, walks, playtime, and keeping pets calm and cared for while their owners are away. For house sitting, I’m organized, responsible, and great at keeping a home tidy and running smoothly. I’m someone families feel comfortable trusting with their space and their loved ones. I bring a warm, positive presence and communicate clearly so you always know everything is taken care of. Looking forward to working with you and your family! x

I believe childhood should be filled with laughter, learning and love. I consider myself patient, loving and reliable. For the past two years, I have been a full-time nanny to a wonderful little one, starting when he was 6 months, which it’s been a wonderful experience, that taught me so much about infant care. I’m a certified preschool teacher in my home country, which has given me knowledge and strong skills in early childhood development. As a plus, Spanish is my first language and I truly enjoy introducing children to it through songs, books and playful activities. I’m CPR-certified caregiver.

Lis has been our nanny for several afternoons and evenings, and our son loves spending time with her. She has a special way of connecting with children, making every moment fun and entertaining. My husband and I always feel at ease knowing our son is in good hands. I don't know what I would do without Liss.

I am a dedicated Nursing student with a strong foundation in healthcare and hands on caregiving experience. As a Patient Care Technician for 3 years, I developed essential skills in patient monitoring, personal care and communicating with families during vulnerable moments. My compassionate nature was also shaped by caring for a younger family member, which deepened my patience, attentiveness and genuine love for helping others. I will bring professionalism, reliability and a warm, nurturing approach to every family I work with. My medical training means I stay calm under pressure, notice the small details that matters and always prioritize the safety and comfort of those in my care. Whether it’s a child, seniors or anyone in my care. I am fully committed to providing the highest quality of care with kindness and integrity.

$20 per hour for 1 child

I am a young college student who got into childcare as a side job, but I completely fell in love. Infants are my favorite age group, but I have experience working with children of all ages. My rates start at $20/hour for one child. I have worked for childcare facilities and families .I have also been a reliable babysitter on other babysitter platforms; I’m CPR certified; I also have my certificates in administration of medicine and also in health & safety training for child care professionals. My goal is to provide your child with a safe, routine-focused, and creative environment in which to learn and grow into a wonderful person. I love doing seasonal crafts, baking, pretend play, encouraging independent time, and special weekly outings when appropriate. I’m firm but kind and will work with you on any challenges your child may come to. In my personal time, I love to read, do hair, and relax. I look forward to meeting you.

"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."

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)."
