Booked by 2 families in Inwood, NY

Hi! My name is Fatoumata (Fah-tu-mah-tah), and I’m a New York native who loves working with children and getting to know new families. I’ve been babysitting for about nine years and have experience caring for children of different ages and needs. I also have professional experience as a Home Health Aide and Personal Care Assistant, which has helped me develop strong skills in patience, communication, responsibility, and providing attentive care. I enjoy reading—especially reading to kids—going on walks, spending time outdoors, listening to podcasts, and trying new things. As a New Yorker, I’m always excited to explore different parts of the city, and I love finding fun, age-appropriate activities and adventures to enjoy with the kids I care for. I’m also comfortable helping with light cooking, tidying up, and other household tasks related to childcare. I’m happy to discuss additional ways I can support your family. I’m comfortable working with pets.

“Fatou is sweet and personable. My mother felt very comfortable with her and I appreciate that. She was on time and is very responsive. As a native New Yorker, I didn’t have to explain where things were which was great. Will definitely repeat ”

Booked by 2 families in Inwood, NY

Hi families! My name is Briasia. I LOVE the color pink and I like to do art activities! I am a dedicated, energetic, and caring childcare professional with experience working with children of all ages, from infants to preteens. I currently work at Beanstalk Academy, where I care for children ages 1–12 and help support their growth, learning, and development every day. I have also worked in a school setting with kindergarten students in an after-school program and have experience as a nanny through Care.com. These experiences have allowed me to develop strong skills in creating engaging activities, building positive relationships with children, and providing a safe, nurturing environment where they can thrive. I have extensive experience with infants, toddler care, and potty training, and I truly enjoy helping children reach important milestones while making learning fun and exciting. Whether it's arts and crafts, outdoor play, reading stories, educational activities, or simply being a supportive and dependable caregiver, I love finding ways to keep children happy, engaged, and growing. I am currently pursuing a degree in Sociology and will be graduating next year. After graduation, I plan to continue my education by earning my Master's degree in school counseling. I'm open to working with families on an occasional basis until I find a family I can work with long-term. I look forward to connecting with families!

“Briasia was great! She was on time, friendly, and very professional. My child warmed up to her quickly and really enjoyed spending time with her. She has such a bubbly, positive personality and made us all feel comfortable right away. I felt confident knowing my child was in good hands and would definitely recommend her to other families looking for a reliable and caring sitter. ”

Laura $27 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Laura and I’m a first year master’s student at Columbia University. I am offering child care, pet care, and household services. I’ve been babysitting for my own family and family friends since I was a pre-teen! I am the second of 5 kids, so I grew up with a good amount of childcare responsibilities, and I also worked as a nanny in high school. I also had experience in college working with preschoolers through Jumpstart. I love spending time outdoors with kids (parks, playgrounds, or home outdoor space!), and doing arts and crafts, games, or even helping with homework. I own a beagle-mix who I’ve had for 5 years, and I’m very experienced with taking care of dogs. I also have experience taking care of cats. I can also help with a range of household tasks, like cooking, cleaning, and running errands. However I can help out, I’m your girl!

"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)."
