Hello I’m Ally! I’ve been a sitter for 8 years. I’m experienced with children of all ages. Kids are our future and should be cherished and protected at all costs. I’m always willing to go the extra mile, and I don’t mind staying late, or helping with duties around the home if asked. If you need references or have any questions feel free to reach out! 😊 I’m a food lover, travel enthusiast, mommy to a beautiful 6 yr old doodle, and an admirer of all kids. With me your child will always be in good hands. Take a glance at my calendar and you’ll see the days and hours I’m available. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions. Thanks for stopping by! 😊🥰

Hi! My name is Kaidy- I graduated with a B.S. from West Virginia University in 2013, then continued to take classes towards a Master’s degree in Education shortly after. I have worked both as a preschool teacher and a full-time nanny since then. I am offering childcare, such as nanny and babysitting, and pet services. I’ve always loved taking care of kids; I started babysitting at 11 years old and continued that career path through my adulthood. I’ve worked with children off all ages ranging from infants and toddlers (including twins!), all the way through high school age. I have the education and training to care for all different types of children through my work as a Paraprofessional; this includes children with developmental, behavioral, and/or learning disabilities as well as children with autism. In my previous nannying experience, my responsibilities with the children have included (but are not limited to): driving or using public transit to take children to school, museums, parks/playgrounds, and sports; daily arts and crafts; STEM experiments; teaching phonics, basic math, writing skills, and homework help; integrating music through guitar, song and dance; and creating engaging, and often educational, daily games. Additionally, I offer household services to the families I work with, such as: laundry, cleaning general play areas, cooking meals, and running errands. I have both a dog and a cat at home- I love animals! So I am offering pet care services as well. I am trained and certified in infant/child/adult CPR & First Aid, and I have utilized my skills several times working with children. I have successfully preformed the Heimlich Maneuver on separate occasions for a baby and a toddler, as well as identified the signs of a child experiencing an asthma attack and immediately used their rescue inhaler. I have also administered regular medication to children (and pets!) and I feel totally comfortable doing so. I don’t have any children of my own, but I grew up the oldest of 30 first cousins and I have absolutely loved being able to care for them, as well as children of any age and background; to see them grow, and help them flourish, is an honor that I don’t take lightly. I am confident in creating a fun, engaging, and educational experience for your little ones. I hope to show your family the compassion and strong work ethic that I have to offer!

Hello! I’m Olivia, a full time elementary school art teacher. I offer childcare and household services in Brooklyn, Queens, and Manhattan. I have been babysitting since I was 13 years old, and the ages of the children in my care have ranged from 2-11 years old. In addition to being certified to teach visual art, I am certified in general childhood education and am able to offer homework help and tutoring or even art lessons along with childcare! I love to work with kids and plan enriching art activities or help them meet their academic goals. I am able to complete chores, cook, and help with pet care as well!

Booked by 6 families in Fresh Meadows, NY

I’m a dedicated and experienced nanny with over 12 years of hands-on experience caring for infants, toddlers, and young children. My background includes both private childcare and working as a paraprofessional educator, which gives me a strong understanding of child development, behavior management, and creating supportive, structured environments where children can thrive. I specialize in caring for infants and toddlers, including newborns, and I’m confident managing routines such as feeding, sleep training, and developmental play. I have experience caring for multiple children at once, including twins, and I’m comfortable balancing different needs while maintaining a calm, organized environment. I also have experience supporting children with varying developmental needs, including those with autism, and I take a patient, individualized approach to every child I work with. I enjoy creating engaging, age-appropriate activities that support learning through play, including sensory play, early literacy, art projects, and outdoor exploration. With my background in studio art, I love incorporating creativity into daily routines to keep children stimulated and excited to learn. Safety is always my top priority. I am First Aid certified, attentive to dietary restrictions and allergies, and experienced in maintaining clean, organized spaces. I’m also reliable with transportation, punctual, and respectful of each family’s routines, parenting style, and household expectations.

"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)."
