Glendys $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Glendys — I’m a first-year college student majoring in Nursing and Health Science. I’m passionate about working with kids and have always loved the energy and creativity they bring. Babysitting gives me the chance to connect with families, build relationships, and make each day fun and positive for the kids I care for. I’ve worked as a camp counselor for two years with children ages 4–12, and I also help care for my 5-year-old autistic sister, which has taught me patience, understanding, and adaptability. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, reliable, and always make safety my top priority. I’d describe myself as fun, creative, and attentive — I love coming up with new activities, doing crafts, baking, and spending time outdoors. I know my way around the city, can drive (though I haven’t driven with kids yet), and I always aim to keep things organized and running smoothly. I’m currently based in NYC and looking forward to meeting new families in the area. Thanks for taking the time to get to know me — I can’t wait to meet you and your little ones!

I am certified in cpr and first aid training. Your child/children safety will always be my first priority. I am the nanny who can gently guide your child through learning activities, support their independence and foster creativity through play. Engage in development appropriate activities such as reading, play and arts and crafts. My purpose is to support families and provide a safe and nurturing environment for their little bundles of joy. I am an energetic and reliable nanny, and I have dedicated my life to meeting healthy developmental milestones in the lives of my tiny humans. Over the years, I have had the privilege of working with a number of families, supporting them through the joys and challenges. My experience includes fostering bravery, confidence, critical thinking, individuality, and emotional intelligence in all children under my watchful care. I have helped busy families raise their little ones, and I've helped them to have both, the courage and confidence to return to the workforce, and running their businesses, while the individuals holding the greatest amount of value in their lives, are safe and loved. I have dealt with children of various ages, personalities and interests. I look forward to connecting with you and being a reliable and caring support during this incredible journey of parenthood.

"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."

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)."
