Adys Iderlaynys $30 per hour for 1 child

I am a compassionate, dependable, and patient caregiver who has been caring for children for most of my life\. I have helped care for my niece and nephew during family vacations in Florida, my four younger cousins in the Dominican Republic during the pandemic, and the children of close family friends as a nanny\. These experiences have taught me how to create a safe, loving, and engaging environment for children of different ages\. I also have professional experience as a Direct Support Professional \(DSP\), where I cared for children with physical and developmental disabilities\. This role strengthened my patience, communication, and problem\-solving skills while teaching me how to provide individualized care based on each child’s unique needs\. In addition to childcare, I cared for my mother after her knee reconstructive surgery, assisting with daily activities, meal preparation, medication reminders, and emotional support throughout her recovery\. I also have experience caring for cats and dogs and can help with light housekeeping, meal preparation, homework, bedtime routines, and keeping the home organized\. Families can count on me to be responsible, trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely committed to providing safe, compassionate, and dependable care for their loved ones.

Booked by 1 family in Inwood, NY

Hello! My name is Jasmine, and I’m currently a Psychology student. Although I’m a college student, I have a flexible schedule and can frequently accommodate families needs. I love working with children and supporting their growth in a safe, fun, and nurturing environment. I have been babysitting since 2021 and have experience caring for children ranging from newborns to 5 years old. Growing up in a large family, I was always surrounded by babies and young children, which helped me develop patience, responsibility, and a genuine love for childcare. I also enjoy creating engaging activities that encourage learning, development, and play. In addition to my childcare experience, I’m a big animal lover and comfortable caring for pets. I have both a dog and a cat and have over 8 years of experience helping care for animals. I am bilingual in English and Spanish, dependable, and always strive to create a positive experience for both children and parents.

Zainab $25 per hour for 1 child

Bringing joy and nurturing care to children is my passion. My year of experience babysitting has solidified my desire to positively impact young lives and support families. I'm patient, friendly, and dedicated to providing a safe and engaging environment for your child. I'm comfortable caring for one child and experienced with ages 0-12+. I have First Aid Training and can assist with cooking, meal preparation, and light housekeeping. I enjoy playing outdoor games, board games, and educational activities. I communicate updates via your preferred method. While I respect household rules, I am not strict. My goal is to ensure your child feels loved and secure while in my care.

Maggie $40 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Maggie, 34, and kids have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I spent two years as a Peace Corps volunteer in rural South Africa, where I ran youth programs, facilitated an overnight camp for 40 young women, and worked hands-on with kids and families in the community every single day. Since then I've built a career in international development, working with foundations and nonprofits around the world. These days I work as a consultant, which gives me a flexible schedule and makes me really reliable for regular sits, last-minute evenings, or the occasional weekend. I'm patient, easygoing, and genuinely happiest when I'm playing, reading, or just goofing around with kids. I also speak French, so if you're looking for a little language immersion during playtime, I'd love to bring that in too. I take care of the kids I'm with like they're my own, and I'd love to meet your 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."

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)."
