Booked by 2 families in Jackson Heights, NY

Hi, my name is Arianna! I’m 19 years old with over 3 years of experience providing safe, nurturing, and energetic care for children from infants to pre-teens. I have a natural ability to connect with kids, stay calm under pressure, and maintain a fun environment while setting respectful boundaries. I’m also CPR and FIRSTAID certified. Whether I'm assisting with homework, managing school pickups and drop-offs, or prepping healthy meals, I take my role seriously. I am a confident driver with a clean record and am also completely comfortable keeping your household running smoothly with light cleaning or organizing. Bonus: I love animals and have plenty of experience with pet care.

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!

Holland 4 reviews
$28 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Holland, I'm 24, and I am a part time graduate student (Masters in Forensic Psychology) based in Brooklyn, NY. I have a passion for social justice, safety, and the wellbeing of vulnerable individuals in our communities. In my free time I love to bake, read, and spend time with my cat, Bunny! I would describe myself as communicative, patient, and organized. I love to make sure everyone is on the same page at all times and highly value a collaborative approach when working with families and care teams. I have experience working in both private childcare (toddlers through middle school age) and as a mentor/behavior coach at state agencies (elementary through high school ages). I also have experience working with neurodivergent kiddos, including profound (nonverbal) autism and intellectual disabilities. I understand each child has their own strengths and difficulties, and I do my absolute best to meet them where they're at and in a manner that will be supportive to them and their goals. I am very comfortable with home tasks such as cleaning, cooking, organization, and schedule management. I am open to a family assistant role that includes all of the above if necessary (rate increases to reflect responsibilities, at least $5/hr for non-child related cleaning/cooking). As I am in grad school, I'm looking for a family with some flexibility as my schedule is subject to change each semester. I'd love to connect and discuss the specifics of my experience and get to know you. Please let me know if you have any questions!

Holland is smart, kind, funny, intuitive, organized, and capable. In the several months she has worked for us she has taken excellent care of our young toddler son. He absolutely loves her and so do we. Not only does she make sure he eats enough, drinks water, naps on time, and has lots of fun playtime, but when he is napping she efficiently tidies and restores order to our home. I am particular about the house and she has no problems meeting my high standards. She is an excellent communicator and a quick learner who takes feedback well and integrates it easily. Holland is a gem. We will miss her so much when she leaves our area!

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
