Glendys $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Glendys — I’m a first-year college student majoring in Nursing and Health Science. I’m passionate about working with kids and have always loved the energy and creativity they bring. Babysitting gives me the chance to connect with families, build relationships, and make each day fun and positive for the kids I care for. I’ve worked as a camp counselor for two years with children ages 4–12, and I also help care for my 5-year-old autistic sister, which has taught me patience, understanding, and adaptability. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, reliable, and always make safety my top priority. I’d describe myself as fun, creative, and attentive — I love coming up with new activities, doing crafts, baking, and spending time outdoors. I know my way around the city, can drive (though I haven’t driven with kids yet), and I always aim to keep things organized and running smoothly. I’m currently based in NYC and looking forward to meeting new families in the area. Thanks for taking the time to get to know me — I can’t wait to meet you and your little ones!

Liz $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Liz, and I offer childcare, pet care, and household services. I’m 24 years old and originally from Virginia! I’ve been house sitting and pet sitting since I was 12 years old and have consistently been trusted with extended stays ranging from 1 to 6 weeks while families were away. I have experience caring for pets, maintaining homes, handling daily routines, and making sure everything stays safe, clean, and stress-free while you’re gone. I’ve also been babysitting since I was 18 and have cared for children ranging from 6 months to 10 years old. I love creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment for kids, whether that means being an energetic play buddy, cooking dinner, helping with bedtime routines, or telling great bedtime stories! I pride myself on being dependable, communicative, and attentive, and I truly enjoy helping families feel comfortable and supported.

Heather $17 per hour for 1 child

I've been a counselor at Rock Camp's before as well as a music teacher. I've mainly worked with kids ages 5+. I'm an animal lover and have two cats of my own. I grew up with dogs and have taken care of other friends and relatives animals before. My experience with seniors who need additional care is with my own mother who has MS and I grew up with her having disabilities so I'm very knowledgeable with taking care of older seniors. I'm looking for some work right now while I'm in-between jobs. I can help with house care as well. Thank you for your consideration. -Heather

Zoe $30 per hour for 1 child

Hello!! My name is Zoe and I am a 23 year old graduate from UC Santa Barbara who recently moved to Brooklyn. I offer childcare (all ages), pet care, tutoring and other household help! I love working with kids because their curiosity and silliness is contagious, especially when I can introduce them to the crafts and games I grew up on! I have been working with kids of all ages (newborn - teens) since 2018. I have 5 years of experience working at a sleep away summer camp as a counselor, arts and crafts specialist and supervisor. I most recently worked as the Supervisor of Children’s Services at a Domestic Violence shelter, where I managed a daycare and afterschool programs for 80+ kids. I love playing games, leading arts and crafts, helping with homework and taking kids outside! Additionally, I can cook, clean, take care of pets, or help with whatever else you may need! I am CPR trained and am a Wilderness First Responder, which prepares me to respond to emergency situations. Please don’t hesitate to reach out! I would love to help in anyway I can!

"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)."
