Hi! My name is Sophia :) I am originally from Orange County, CA and graduated in 2022 from UCLA. I recently moved to NYC and work in finance. I work 11-7 (since my team is on the west coast) so am available for childcare any day in the mornings or evenings! I have a huge family with lots of baby cousins and have been babysitting and tutoring since I was in high school. I am extremely organized and clean and will love any activities your child wants to participate in.

Shellie $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Shellie, a caring, energetic, and flexible caregiver with 10+ years of experience working with kids from being a full-time nanny, summer camp counselor, and occasional babysitting. I have most of my experience working with toddlers and young children ages (2-10 years old), and kids with ADHD, selective mutism, and anxiety disorders. I’m currently a graduate student studying child psychology. I’m currently a nanny to a family with children ages 3 and 10 years old. This summer, I’m looking for a family to work with while school is out, and if you’re interested into the school year. I started babysitting when I was 16 years old and haven’t stopped working with kids as I love it so much! When I was an undergrad student I worked as a full-time nanny for 3+ years providing weekday care for a family with children ages 4, 6, and 8. In addition to supporting their daily school schedules and extracurriculars, I planned fun activities at home like various arts and crafts projects, scavenger hunts, and dance parties to outings to the aquarium, the beach and museums. I also completed household tasks like meal prep, grocery shopping, laundry, tidying up and general housekeeping. More about me: Born and raised in Miami Beach, FL, I love spending time outdoors playing soccer, cooking healthy homemade meals, and indulging in painting, baking, playing guitar, and reading.

Hello Parents! My name is Chloe Kaleah I am a 20year old undergrad student at Pace University. As a sophomore college student studying film and screen studies, I find immense joy in caring for children, understanding their unique needs, and fostering their growth.

I prioritize meaningful relationships, whether imaginative play, homework help, or listening to their stories. I also enjoy incorporating animals into our activities and exploring arts and crafts.

Booked by 3 families in Howard Beach, NY

Hi! My name is Isis, and I would love the opportunity to care for your little ones. My goal is to become more than just an occasional babysitter—I strive to be someone your family can rely on for planned care, date nights, last-minute emergencies, and everything in between. I have experience working at Tiny Toes Learning Center in Mount Pocono and Little Buds in Fort Greene, where I’ve gained hands-on experience caring for children in structured, nurturing environments. My responsibilities have included supervising groups of children, leading engaging activities, reading with them, encouraging outdoor play, and creating a fun, safe atmosphere until pickup. I’m experienced in maintaining daily routines, including preparing meals and snacks, supporting nap and bedtime routines, assisting with potty training, helping with homework, and keeping children engaged through age-appropriate activities rather than relying on screens. I love planning creative activities, reading stories, exploring parks, and, with parent approval, taking children on enriching outings like museums and other educational adventures. You can count on me to be dependable, patient, and communicative. I understand the trust it takes to leave your child with someone, so I prioritize safety, consistency, and open communication, keeping you updated throughout my time with your little ones

Lauren $25 per hour for 1 child

I have 4 years of experience. I can help with Light Housekeeping and Errands. I have both a first aid and CPR certification. (I am certified in both infant and adult CPR.) I am good with pets, and can assist with those as well (if needed.) A little about me- I am 18 years old, and currently live in Chelsea. I have another part-time nanny job that leaves the hours of 8:30-5:00 fully open for me on school days. I am the oldest child, and have one younger brother who is 16. I have been working as a front desk receptionist at a hair salon since June 2023. I love getting to meet new people, and listen to their stories and experiences! In my free time, I love to read, go for walks with my dogs, bake, hang out with friends, visit with my grandparents, and also organize spaces! I am often referenced as the 'grandma' of my friend group as I like to go to bed early, wake up early, and would rather stay in and read a good book than go out. I have been babysitting/nannying for almost 8 years now, and really enjoy it.

"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)."
