Booked by 1 family in Jackson Heights, NY

“Let all that you do be done with love.” — 1 Corinthians 16:14 Hi, my name is Sharon. I have many years of experience caring for both children and seniors, and I truly enjoy being someone families can count on. My childcare experience includes private in-home care as well as working in a daycare setting. I have helped with daily routines, meals, supervision, playtime, light household tasks, and creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for children. I also currently provide private elderly care, where I assist with meals, appointments, companionship, daily routines, and other day-to-day needs. In addition, I previously owned and operated my own cleaning business, where I worked directly with clients, managed household responsibilities, and made sure each home was cared for with attention to detail and consistency. I am organized, detail-oriented, warm, and reliable. I take pride in being helpful, noticing the little things, and making each day a little easier for the families I work with.

“Extremely detail oriented cleaning for an apartment move out. Communicative and reliable.”

Nathaly 2 reviews
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Nathaly! I’m a proud mom of two and bring years of hands-on parenting experience to the families I work with. Having homeschooled my children, I’m not only comfortable keeping kids engaged but also love to make learning fun through reading, crafts, and interactive play. 🍎 What I Offer • Nurturing, patient care with a mother’s touch • Healthy meal prep (I love to cook!) • Light housekeeping, laundry, and organizational help • A structured but warm approach that makes children feel safe and cared for. Other parents often tell me that they feel at ease knowing I’ve been in their shoes. I understand what it means to balance busy schedules, trust someone with your little ones, and want peace of mind at home. I take pride in being dependable, calm under pressure, and someone your kids will genuinely enjoy spending time with.

“Great last-minute babysitter while I was visiting town! I have two kids and they absolutely loved having her around they even asked if they could see her again. Super grateful for her help!”

Sofia $40 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I'm Sofia, from a small coastal community in Northern California, and recently moved to Brooklyn after graduating from University. I have 10 years of experience as a babysitter with infants to pre-teens! I have also worked a summer camp counselor in my hometown for three summers, guiding groups of over 15 children on outdoor adventures and through arts and crafts activities. I recently graduated from the University of British Columbia, where I studied Creative Writing and Visual Art. I truly love working with kids of all ages and personalities, establishing a foundation of trust with each other, and fostering a deep connection. The experience of looking after a child has always brought me a deep sense of purpose and offered me with new, unique perspectives. I have references available, and have CPR and first aid certifications. You can reach me at[removed], or [removed] - I look forward to hearing from you!!

Mickael $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello to all! I am a rising Junior at Columbia University studying philosophy looking to babysit. I have worked babysitting jobs before back home in DC for parents of my school. Throughout those experiences, I've always appreciated the connection I was able to form with the kids as I watched them progress and grow. I have also worked as a soccer coach for refugee children through a program offered at my high school. Through this experience I was able to better understand how to lead groups of kids for physical activity while also making sure they are just having fun. Furthermore, I come from an international background and can speak three languages (English, French, and German) and really enjoy imparting some linguistic knowledge on the kids who are willing to learn. In doing this job, it is my goal to be someone the kid can laugh with, learn with, and play games with as I take the weight of having children off your shoulders for hours at a time.

Dynasty $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Dynasty, I’m from Brooklyn NY born & raised . I’m patient , reliable & also someone who shows empathy when it comes to working with kids and working with children isn’t just my job it’s my passion. I’m currently a paraprofessional, and I have hands-on experience supporting children on the autism spectrum, as well as children with a variety of learning styles and needs. I’ve taken care of a few seniors not to many but it is an open page in my book so I am providing those services . I’m someone who grew up around pets and pets are just another child to me so they were never an issue . I’d pet sit for everyone whether it was vacation on . I believe in creating a safe, positive, and engaging environment where kids can be themselves, feel supported, and have fun while learning. I’m patient, attentive, and skilled at adapting activities to fit each child’s personality and abilities. Whether we’re working on communication skills, enjoying creative play, or simply sharing a laugh, I make sure every moment counts. Parents can feel confident knowing their child is in caring, capable hands with someone who genuinely loves what they do and understands the importance of building trust and connection.

"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)."
