Daniela $32 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Fresh Meadows, NY

Hi! My name is Dani and I am a nanny and visual artist in Brooklyn, NY with 8 years of experience working with families. I originally grew up in northeastern Massachusetts raised by my Ecuadorian father and Portuguese mother. Because of this, I am fluent in Spanish as a second language and can get by fairly well with Portuguese, though i'm practicing to improve that skill. My experience in childcare ranges from the newborn stage up to twelve years old with a majority of my time being with infants and toddlers. I really enjoy the outdoors, recreational activities and working on art projects like painting, mixed media collage and crochet all in which I blend into my work as a nanny. My interest in plant and earth science has grown to be a useful part of conversation with young children, giving them an opportunity to be more curious and conscious to the world we are a part of which is a major part of my core values that I like to share along with care, compassion, safety and learning. While caring for children, I have been happy to lead, manage and assist parents with various tasks such as meal preparation, home organizing, activity planning, laundry and light cleaning.

Megan 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Meg! I’m a outdoorsy, kind, & dependable babysitter and current grad student based in Brooklyn with my own car. I have been in childcare for as long as I can remember — I earned my first Red Cross certification in 5th grade and have since worked in a variety of childcare capacities. Growing up in Colorado gave me a deeply rooted appreciation for spending time outdoors, and I enjoy planning active adventures and exploring parks whenever possible. I enjoy volunteering in NYC for Girls on the Run and Achilles Kids. As a summer camp counselor for the Snowmass Club, I supervised groups of 15-30 campers between the ages of 5 and 12. I led weekly outdoor recreation trips ranging from local hikes to river rafting, prioritizing children's safety throughout. For 4 years, I volunteered for a peer mentorship program as a “Big Buddy” for elementary and middle school students. Building one-on-one relationships refined my ability to connect with children of different ages and personalities. During the pandemic, I supported several families in a tutor role, helping elementary students remain engaged with remote learning while preparing lunch and planning craft projects.

“Megan worked as one of my top camp counselors and had a magic way with the kiddos. The camp was ages 5-12 and she could mesh with anybody! Quick on her toes and the most caring counselor we had.”

Jalani $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

Molly $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Molly, I’m a full-time Montessori infant teacher, and I have experience working with children from 6 months to 13 years old! I'm passionate about the Montessori philosophy and love creating child-led experiences that encourage independence, creativity, and curiosity. Some of my favorite activities are making art, reading, spending time outdoors, and exploring nature. I'm looking for a part-time evening position (around 6–11 PM) with a family I'd love to build a long-term relationship with, ideally growing into a full-time role. P.S. I'm allergic to cats, but I'm happy to care for any other pets!

Booked by 1 family in Fresh Meadows, NY

I am an experienced caregiver with a calm, warm, and steady presence, and I bring a strong sense of organization and emotional awareness to every family I work with. Over the years, I’ve cared for children of different ages and personalities, and I’ve learned how to create routines that feel both structured and comforting. I focus on helping kids feel safe, understood, and confident in their own independence, while keeping the day flowing with ease and intention. My style is gentle but grounded. I stay fully present, I communicate clearly, and I adapt quickly to the rhythm of each household. I love creating moments of connection — reading together, exploring outside, building imaginative play — while also supporting the practical side of daily life. I’m comfortable managing schedules, preparing simple meals, organizing spaces, helping with homework, and keeping the home environment calm and functional. Families describe me as warm, reliable, and emotionally intuitive. I bring a sense of stability, kindness, and maturity that helps children relax and parents feel supported. Whether the day calls for creativity, structure, or quiet reassurance, I show up with consistency, patience, and genuine care. My goal is always to make the home feel lighter, smoother, and filled with a sense of trust.

“Gabi is the sweetest, kindest and most patient person ever! My daughter and I absolutely love her. As a single parent, there are not many people who I trust to take care of my daughter, but Gabi is one of the few. She’s caring, responsible, always on time and flexible. 100% recommend her!”

"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)."
