I am ithesha i get along well with kids I think that can be attributed to my sunny disposition. I don't mind pretend play going outdoors or just staying in reading a story or building something with Leggos. I am available on short notice and I work past midnight if needed.

Great with kids on time and was very helpful

I also have experience supporting children with autism and other developmental needs, along with ABA training.I provide a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment through creative play, learning activities, and consistent routines.

Hi! My name is Vanessa ! I have been in the nanny/ babysitting field for over 9 years now! I am most familiar with the UES but I have also done occasional jobs all over New York! Right now I am looking for one time positions or part time positions. I love to have fun taking kids to the park or just hanging out at home!

Vanessa arrived on time, was a great boy sitter- she knew how to play with my 7 year old, help him get his energy out, & had him in bed on time & asleep before I got home, which I was grateful for. She also has a lovely demeanor, I would happily have her babysit again.

I have a lovely puppy named mason whom I’ve been taking care of my whole life. I love animals and I’m very open to pet care.

Hi ya’ll, I’m Meka! 🏖️SUMMER 2026❗️ 💐Parents/Guardians get ready to go 👣 out & enjoy yourselves! (I’ll even tag along to provide care for the children!) I’m available for 🛤outings, ⛲️date-night, 🏟events, work etc. I live in 🌆 Manhattan. It’s always important for you to have alone time/adult time/me-time. Being a Parent is hard work so giving yourself some time dedicated just for you, is important❗️ I adore working with children. I want to be that “safe space/person” that children can talk to & feel comfortable. So much trauma occurs at a young age & sometimes doesn’t show up until adulthood. I’m passionate about mental health. & I have experience with those that are with special needs. (Also helping assist family members on the spectrum). I work in the PCICU as a CNA 🏪 & I’m CPR certified. I do have a teen of my own. Don’t be alarmed🚨I look young in person! 💁🏾‍♀️🧬 but hey, the kiddies gravitate towards me since I look young! I’ll be with them on the playground obstacles and jungle gyms! I understand the anxiety of leaving your children with other people. That’s why I LOVE when there’s cameras 📷 in the home❗️IF anything were to happen, we can watch the tape 📼 together, no problem! 🙂 🚨Please state at the time of booking, if your child is sick. So I can choose whether or not I want to proceed with the job. I do want to protect my other families that I work with as well as myself & mine.🚨 If you cancel last minute, you agree to pay half of the total pay amount agreed. Another family could have booked me. I’ve had many last minute cancellations, and declined other families that I could have cared for. 👍🏾PLEASE leave a review after a job is done. It helps not only myself, but I’m sure you’d feel better reading feedback from other parents experience. Thanks so much❗️😊

Meka was awesome!! Clear communication, thoughtful, and all-around great. It was our first time booking with Meka (and with urbansitter)…would book with her again!

"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)."
