Fiorella $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Fiore, I’m 26 years old, and I’m originally from Argentina. I’ve been living in New York City for almost two years, and I’m passionate about working with children and supporting their growth and development. I’m a qualified English teacher with six years of teaching experience in Argentina, working with children in kindergarten, elementary school, and high school. I also have over seven years of childcare experience, caring for children aged two and older. I worked as an au pair in New York, where I’ve been caring for three wonderful children, ages 3, 5, and 7, for the past year and eight months. I would describe myself as responsible, punctual, organized, patient, and optimistic. I always strive to give my best professionally and create a safe, loving, and positive environment where children feel comfortable, supported, and encouraged to learn. I truly enjoy spending time with children, planning fun and educational activities, encouraging their creativity, and helping them develop independence and confidence.

Laylah $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi, My name is Laylah , and I’m a nursing student at CSI. I’m a dependable, nurturing caregiver offering child care, senior care, pet care, and household help. I’ve been babysitting since I was 14, with experience caring for infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids—including siblings and neurodivergent children. I love creating fun, engaging activities like crafts, story time, and outdoor play, and I’m happy to help with homework, school pickups, and bedtime routines. As a nursing student, I’m trained in safety, health awareness, and CPR, and I’ve cared for elderly family members—helping with meals, appointments, mobility, and companionship. I’m comfortable with dogs and can cook, clean, run errands, and help keep things running smoothly at home.

Arianna $17 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a patient and reliable caregiver based in Brooklyn. I genuinely love being around kids and helping them feel safe, happy, and comfortable while their parents are away. I have experience working with children through previous jobs and babysitting, so I’m comfortable with toddlers, preschoolers, and school-age kids. I’m very attentive and I love doing fun activities with them. I also offer pet care, and I’ve grown up around animals my whole life. I’ve had a dog, many cats, a bird, and a guinea pig, so I’m comfortable with different types of pets and their routines. I can help with feeding, walks, playtime, and cleanup, and I’m also comfortable with pets that shed and friendly larger dogs.

"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)."
