Booked by 3 families in Holbrook, NY

I am currently working as an au pair and will be looking for a full-time nanny position after my au pair year ends on November 27. I am taking care of two children at the moment, aged 18 months and 4 years. I have been caring for them since they were 3 months and 3 years old. Before coming here, I volunteered at a daycare for two months, helping care for about 20 children aged 2–5 (not by myself). I have plenty of experience with young kids and am also looking for part-time work, such as date nights or weekends. I can also provide a reference from my host family.

Still getting to know her. So far we like her. Caring and wonderful!

Erin Port Jefferson Station
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hello families, my name is Erin and I have been a caregiver for 10 years. I ensure that your children are receiving the same love and attention as if they were my own. I am a NY certified social studies teacher who also has a masters degree in teaching English to non- native English Speakers. (ENL) As a mother myself of one energetic little girl, I understand the kind of care we want for our children. I do have my own form of childcare so this would not become an issue. As a nanny who is proficient in understanding the emotional needs of children, I know how crucial it is to be dependable, attentive, and nurturing! I have cared for newborns all the way to pre-teens! Past responsibilities included errands, meal preparation, chores, pick-up/drop off from after school activities, etc. As a nanny, I am very open-minded and understand that all children require their own form of unique accommodations as well as families. Fun fact: I love Brazilian Jiu Jitsu!

Zainab Saint James
$21 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Zainab , or as my kids like to call me: Miss Z! I am 19 years old and reside in the Saint James/Smithtown area. I am going to Suffolk county community college to pursue an associate degree in education but decided to take the spring semester off to get more hands on learning experience. Last semester I was offered a position as a preschool for six months as an assistant teacher and absolutely loved being there. I’m so passionate about children and I plan to make it my life’s work. I’m currently taking care of two kids ages 8 and 12 with autism and behavioral problems. However, that job will be ending next week which means I have more time to take care of YOUR kids! As a babysitter you can expect me to keep a neat and organized atmosphere and be an incredible nurturer. I plan fun education crafts on my own time that we can do. I love music dancing and singing so there’s always a lot of that, then of course: homework! I was a very studios kid in high school and can help out with homework in any grade level. I am able to cook as well. I love making Alfredo pasta and pizza! Helping your kids get dressed for school and ready for bed is important as well because it teaches them routine especially when you’re not there so children can feel stable. Thanks for taking a look at my profile and I do hope I hear from you soon!

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
