“Isie has been my babysitter for the last ten years. She has cared for my three children ranging from six months to 8 years old. She baths them, prepares their meals, reads to them, takes them outside to the park, helps with homework. She is very reliable, always on time, willing to come early or stay late. She cares for my children as if they were her own. Anyone that has the opportunity to have her as a sitter will be very fortunate.”

Booked by 68 families in Forest Hills, NY

Hello my name is Sade. I am 30 and currently majoring in Speech Pathology. Starting at the age of 14, I began my first job at the Brooklyn Children's Museum. Working with toddlers at a young age taught me the patience I would need working with children. Years later I'm even more passionate about children and experienced with children aged 13 months to 15 years old, but I am also comfortable with younger infants. I can do anything that is expected from changing diapers and making sure your child is fed to helping with homework and getting them ready for bed. With amazing weather upon us, there are many kid-friendly activities to enjoy such as going to the parks, museums, shows, etc.

Booked by 3 families in Forest Hills, NY

Hi! My name is Liselot, but I mainly go by Liz. I’m 23 years old, a college student, and a caring, patient, and dependable person who genuinely enjoys working with children. I work as a Behavior Technician in ABA therapy, providing one-on-one support to a child primarily in a home setting, with occasional sessions at an ABA center. Through my work, I’ve gained experience supporting children with challenging behaviors, following individualized routines and goals, encouraging independence, and developing communication skills. I also have experience using an AAC device with a non-speaking child. I also have babysitting experience with children ranging from toddlers to school age. I enjoy keeping children engaged through arts and crafts, reading and storytelling, educational activities, outdoor play, and age-appropriate games. I’m comfortable helping with meals, clean-up, bedtime routines, and keeping children on their usual schedule. I’m studying Early Childhood Education and plan to transition into Speech-Language Pathology in the fall, if all goes well. I’m especially interested in child development, communication, and helping children build confidence and independence. I’m looking for occasional babysitting opportunities that I can work around my school and ABA schedule. I’d be happy to do an in-person or FaceTime interview so we can get to know each other and see if I’d be a good fit for your family. Thank you for considering me! I look forward to meeting you and your family! :)

“Liz had great communication and very reliable!”

"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)."
