$23 per hour for 1 child

Hello, My name is Alejandra. I am a costume designer and a naturalized American citizen, originally from Colombia. I moved to New York eight years ago and have been involved in the art world since I was a teenager. I love good music, visiting museums, hiking, going for walks, and appreciating the simple joys of life. Babysitting was my first job when I moved to the U.S., and to this day, it remains my favorite job. I truly enjoy the company of kids—their humor, creativity, and sense of freedom. I have about two years of professional experience, not including a lifetime of caring for my little cousins. I would love to have a child of my own one day, and I will care for your kids the way I would want my future babysitter to care for mine. Sincerely, Alejandra

I have known Alejandra for almost 17 years and she has covered several times for her mom babysitting my children who adored her and she has also worked for my business for several years. I highly recommend her as a babysitter!

Gláucia 6 reviews
$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Hollis, NY

I have experience caring for children from early infancy through early adolescence. I worked as an Au Pair in the United States, where I was responsible for the children’s daily routine, including feeding, transportation, recreational activities, academic support, and general care. In addition, I volunteer at a children’s hospital, where I carry out playful and educational activities with children of different ages. My background in Pharmacy also provides me with knowledge in health and first aid, contributing to safe and responsible childcare.

We scheduled Gláucia last minute and she was very quick to get in touch and coordinate. We were able to show her our daughter’s bedtime routine and she did a great job getting her to sleep! We had an awesome night out and will book her again soon.

Alessia 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child

I am a compassionate, dependable, and patient caregiver who truly values creating a safe and nurturing environment for children. I’ve been caring for kids since I was young — starting as the oldest sibling helping raise my younger siblings, and later babysitting throughout my teenage years. Those early experiences helped me develop strong responsibility, attentiveness, and a natural ability to connect with children of different age

Alessia has been an incredible caregiver for our family. She has taken care of our kids on multiple occasions—whether for date nights or other events—and every time has been a great experience. She is reliable, punctual, and naturally connects with children in a warm and engaging way. Our kids genuinely enjoy spending time with her, and we always feel at ease knowing they’re in good hands. Alessia is attentive, responsible, and goes above and beyond to make sure everyone is comfortable and happy. We highly recommend her to any family looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!

"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)."
