Booked by 17 families in Kew Gardens, NY

Hi! My name is Rinelle and I am a senior at Hunter College. As an older sister to three siblings, caregiving has always been part of my life. I have been working with children for over 6 years, through various babysitting and tutoring jobs. I am bilingual in English and French and conversational in Spanish. I am also comfortable working with children of all ages! My biggest strength as a caregiver is my ability to adapt and creatively problem-solve, all while maintaining a positive attitude. Furthermore, I am honest, patient, and generous in spirit. I also have several hobbies and enjoy playing volleyball, reading books, and taking photographs, to name a few. All in all, I truly enjoy caregiving and I look forward to serving your family!

Booked by 6 families in Kew Gardens, NY

Hello! You can call me Fatou for short. I live in the Bronx, willing to commute. I’m 25 years old and a full time experienced babysitter/nanny. I’ve been on Urban-sitter for a year now. I’ve done over nights, school drop offs and pick ups, and occasionally one time jobs as well. Worked with 7 families so far. I do well with complex schedules as well. Why babysitting/nannying? Knowing how to take care of kids before becoming a mom myself <3 I prioritize safety, clear communication, and consistency while creating a comfortable environment where children feel cared for and parents can feel at ease. I’m a former summer camp counselor from the Little Shepards program, had lots of fun going on outdoor trips to the zoo, amusement parks and museums. I’m a big sister as well, my little sister Tita! She’s 8 years old and the sweetest thing ever. We do a lot of our own girly dates like movies, kids spa and quick errands with me. So far we’ve watched The little Mermaid, Moana, Mufasa, and Elio! I have a 2 year old British short hair cat so I have experience with kittens/cats. Definitely look forward to working with you and your little ones soon!

Booked by 88 families in Kew Gardens, NY

Dependable and dedicated caregiver with over 13+ years of childcare experience supporting families with infants through pre-teens. I provide after-school, evening, and weekend care for households with up to five children. Known for being reliable, calm, and adaptable, I bring a strong understanding of child development and age-appropriate engagement. I prioritize creating a safe, structured, and nurturing environment where children are encouraged to think creatively, develop independence, and practice respect for themselves and others. I communicate clearly with parents, maintain consistency in routines, and approach caregiving with professionalism, patience, and care. My résumé and letters of recommendation are available upon request. I welcome the opportunity to connect and further discuss how my experience and approach can support your family’s needs.

“Farah was fantastic! She watched our kids during a date night while we were visiting New York, and she was exactly what we hoped for. She was warm, dependable, and easy to communicate with. We came home to happy, sleeping kids and had complete peace of mind while we were out. We’d happily book Farah again the next time we’re in New York.”

Booked by 6 families in Kew Gardens, NY

Hi there! My name is Chantal, and I’m a recent graduate of NYU Wagner currently working part-time at a nonprofit organization. Because I work remotely and have a flexible schedule, I’m available for part-time, occasional, evening, and weekend babysitting. Working with children has always been one of the most joyful and meaningful parts of my life. I love building trusting relationships with children, encouraging their curiosity, and creating spaces where they feel safe, supported, and free to explore the world around them. My experience includes: • Nannying children from 3 months to 12 years old, with most of my experience being with children ages 2–6. I have worked long-term nanny positions as well as one-time babysitting, school pickups, evening care, and overnight care. • Working as an English-Spanish bilingual tutor in an elementary school, supporting children ages 6–8. • Serving as a sleepaway camp counselor for 5–6-year-old girls, where I completed training in CPR, First Aid, and water safety. I enjoy creating engaging experiences tailored to each child’s interests—whether that’s trips to the park, museums, libraries, or neighborhood adventures, as well as imaginative play, arts and crafts, reading, and sensory activities at home. I highly value outdoor time and believe childhood should be full of joy, creativity, wonder, and opportunities to learn through play. ✨ I’m also happy to provide: • Homework help and tutoring • Snack and meal preparation (omnivore, vegetarian, and vegan) • Pet care and assistance around the home • Support with public transit and practicing age-appropriate safety skills I am fluent in English and Spanish, conversational to near-fluent in Italian, and conversational in American Sign Language (ASL). I’m comfortable working in homes with pets of any kind and would love the opportunity to learn more about your family’s needs. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or to set up a meeting! I look forward to meeting you and your little ones. 🫶🏼😊

“Chantal regularly babysits our son after school. She's super trustworthy, communicative, and easy going. I'm usually busy at work when she's with our son out and about in manhattan, sometimes on the subway. I'm able to to focus on work and not worry about our son during this time, because he's always in great hands with Chantal!”

Booked by 42 families in Kew Gardens, NY

I have over 10 years of experience as a nanny and babysitter working with children ranging from newborn through elementary age. I also have a background in theater and love bringing that creativity and energy into my work with children. I view my role as a nanny as a teacher and believe children learn best through engagement, play, and exploration. I make it a priority to be fully present with the child rather than distracted by my phone. I enjoy taking children to museums, parks, libraries, and other activities that encourage curiosity and social development. I also have experience working in Early Childhood Education with a teaching style closely aligned with Montessori principles. I believe in positive redirection and creating an environment where children feel safe, supported, and encouraged to explore independently. I am bilingual in English and Spanish and would be happy to incorporate Spanish language exposure if interested. Coming from a Latin culture, I enjoy exposing children to different cuisines while always respecting dietary restrictions and family preferences. Depending on the child’s age, I also like involving them in meal prep and hands-on learning experiences. In addition to childcare, I enjoy helping maintain a clean and organized home through tidying, bottle cleaning, and meal prep support. I am currently part of the NYU Teacher Residency program and am seeking part-time work until my program begins in August.

“Natasha was great with our 1-year-old son!”

"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)."
