Hi! My name is Ayla and I have 4 years of experience caring for children, especially younger kids. I'm a psychology student and a former Division II college athlete, which means I bring a fun, active, and responsible energy to everything I do. I've also worked at a children's day camp, so I'm great at keeping kids engaged, entertained, and safe. Whether you need help with daily routines, playtime, homework, or bedtime, I'm patient, reliable, and always focused on helping kids feel comfortable and cared for. I'm CPR-aware, a non-smoker, and happy to help with light cleaning, & pets!

Nyelle Peekskill
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hello, I’m Nyelle. I was born and raised in New York! Growing up, I had a lot of strong women to look up to that were kind, considerate and loving. Which always influenced me to share that loving and thoughtful influence with whomever I come in contact with. I am the oldest of five children, which has taught me to patiently navigate children since the age of 10. My childcare experience expands across all ages ranging from 2 weeks old to 17 years old. I’ve worked with children in all environments such as daycare, homes and outdoors which makes it better for me to give the children an active and creative outlet. What drives my passion for children is the joy and courageousness they embody. I hope to speak with you soon! Have a blessed day.

$16 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Anjané and I’m a 22-year-old college student with a very flexible schedule and open availability throughout the week. I am offering child care, pet care, and household help services. I’ve always loved working with children and helping create a safe, fun, and positive environment for them. I have experience caring for toddlers, preschoolers, and school-age children, and I enjoy keeping kids engaged through games, crafts, reading, outdoor activities, and helping with homework or routines. I’m patient, dependable, attentive, and understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable leaving their children with someone they trust. My responsibilities have included meal and snack preparation, bedtime routines, light housekeeping, helping with homework, playtime supervision, and maintaining a calm and organized environment. I’m also comfortable around pets and happy to work with families who have dogs or cats. In addition to childcare, I’m reliable, organized, and flexible with scheduling, including evenings and weekends when needed. I always aim to create a caring and supportive environment where children feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely enjoy their time.

Booked by 1 family in Highland Mills, NY

I have been a professional caregiver for over five years, working with children of all ages and supporting families from diverse backgrounds. While every family is unique, my goal remains the same: to provide a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment while respecting each family’s values, routines, and wishes. I understand that every child is different some are artistic, others are athletic, avid readers, or curious explorers. I take pride in adapting to each child’s personality, interests, and environment to promote comfort, confidence, and healthy development. Building trust with both children and parents is a priority for me, and I strive to create a space where children feel secure, supported, and encouraged to be themselves. I also have experience caring for children with disabilities and understand the importance of patience, flexibility, and individualized care. I am CPR, AED, and First Aid certified, a Certified Nursing Assistant, and continuously committed to providing attentive, compassionate, and reliable care. Above all, I aim to be a dependable support system for families while making each child’s day safe, enriching, and enjoyable.

"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."

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)."

Eric D., dad of two
