Booked by 3 families in Howard Beach, NY

Hey! My name is Victoria and I’m looking forward into going back to babysitting. I’m Venezuelan and I fluently speak Spanish and English. I'm a certified PCA with certifications I can show upon request. I’ve been working with kids pretty much my entire life, I started with my cousins and then my nephews and nieces, they’d always make my day better back home, playing around and watching them was a really nice experience and that’s why I decided to be a babysitter, I’ve work with infants and toddlers, but all ages are fine with me. I love taking the kids to the playground or the park if it’s a nice sunny day but if not I love indoor activities too like playing games, doing homework, singing songs, dancing, reading or maybe watching a movie if the kids are not in the mood for playing, I’m a big Disney fan. I’m super comfortable with pets, even have some of my own and i’m very happy to work with families that have pets.

Victoria is an incredible sitter. And sitter isn’t even sufficient to describe the support she provided to my son and I. Yes, she can easily do all the tasks required. More than that, she does them with genuine care and goes above and beyond. We miss her terribly and if she lived closer, I’d find every excuse to have her here. My father was hospitalized during our time together. My son was about 4. I got the call and had to race to the airport. Without hesitation she said she’d figure it out and I could take the time I needed. That’s who she is.

Booked by 3 families in Howard Beach, NY

Hi all, I’m Kayla — I’m currently studying to become a grade school teacher, and working with kids is truly my passion. I lead my church’s daycare and have experience with a wide range of ages, personalities, and group sizes. I absolutely love how creative, curious, and different every child is! I’m very routine-oriented and understand how important structure and consistency are for kids to feel secure and thrive. Whether it’s homework help, playtime, crafts, meal prep, or bedtime routines, I aim to create a fun, safe, and engaging environment where children feel supported and excited. I’m patient, calm, dependable, and big on communication with parents. My goal is always to make your life easier while making sure your little ones are happy and cared for!

I’ve known Kayla and her family for many years through our church, and she has always been such a blessing to our family. My children, Adrian and Elizabeth, absolutely loved their after-school time with her, Sunday classes, and just spending time together in general. She has a natural way with kids that makes them feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. Kayla has always been flexible and reliable — whether it was late nights, early pick-ups, or even helping care for the kids when they weren’t feeling well. We truly trust and love Kayla to this day. 10,000/10 — I would recommend her to any family without hesitation.

Happy to help with light tidying related to the kids, reading, quiet play, and maintaining routines while you’re out. I’m CPR/First Aid certified and have excellent references. Available evenings, weekends, and occasional last-minute requests.

"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)."
