Hi! I’m Navila, and I look forward to working with you! I’m a freshman in college studying psychology with hopes of becoming a pediatric occupational therapist. I really love working with kids and have gained a lot of experience over the years. I’ve worked as a camp counselor for two summers, the first summer working with a group of ages 5-6 and the second with a group of 8-9 year olds. I’ve also au paired in Berlin from September 2025 to January 2026 for a family with two boys ages 4 and 7, where I helped with daily routines and activities. I’m responsible, patient, and easy to get along with.

Navila was lovely. Super responsive and kind. She arrived on time and kept my two girls engaged. Highly reccommend her!

Sophia 1 review
New York
$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Hollis, NY

I have been babysitting since I was 15, my first job was a mothers helper with a pair of 6 month old twins. Recently the age range I’ve been watching is 2-13. I love art, animals and have a basic understanding of most sports. I have no pet allergies. I prefer to work with one or two families closely so I can build a trusting relationship with the kid(s.) I can do overnights as soon as I’ve met the family and know the kids feel safe with me. I do prefer a days notice but I can be to you within thirty minutes to an hour if you’re in my area. I am also on the Nextdoor app, you can find me and message me there if you prefer. Currently I am not cpr certified but it will be one of the first things I do once nyc opens back up.

Sophia is a great babysitter and very responsible. She has watched my kids since summer 2019. She is always 15-30 minutes early and would make sure I was ready for her to leave when I got home, she never ran out the door. My dog loves her and gets excited when he hears her footsteps. My oldest (12) considers her a friend and goes to her with school and issues with other friends. She is very sweet and caring. She follows my rules about meals, snacks and tv time and tells me anything important from the day. Sadly, we have to let her go because we’re moving but she will be missed and has become a member of our family.

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
