Morgan $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello, I would first like to thank you for acknowledging my profile as well as taking time out your day to give me a chance for this opportunity. If you are looking for a reliable, hardworking and experienced nanny you have stopped at the right person. I am very intelligent, sweet, caring and enjoy playing the violin most of the day. Not only do I have years of experience, I have the strength and patience to keep up with more than three children. Most of the families I worked with usually consist of two or more. Once you have mastered different strategies on how to care for a child, it becomes very easy to meet their needs without them having to tell you. You began to know exactly when to feed, change and even how to console them when sick. Just like us adults, children have feelings and may wake up having a bad day so I believe it is very important to be supportive, listen and learn to be that shoulder to lean on without yelling or getting frustrating at them. I absolutely love working with all my families. Me being compassionate for others helps me to bond with not only the children but the families as well. I have tag teamed with grandparents, play dates with other parents as well as family friends. This job has been an amazing experience still after so many years.

Celia $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Celia I’m originally from California and moved to New York two years ago to pursue a career in modeling. Along the way, I discovered that working with families through babysitting and nannying is something I genuinely enjoy—it’s the perfect balance with my schedule and something that brings me a lot of joy. I’m responsible, patient, and easygoing, with a real love for kids and helping out where needed. Whether it’s keeping your home safe while you’re away or making sure your little ones are happy, cared for, and entertained, I always show up with a calm, positive attitude. I have experience caring for children ages 3 to 7, including school pickups, cooking, helping with homework, and spending quality time together. I’m also comfortable with pets and happy to lend a hand with light household tasks. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and see how I can help make your days a little easier!

Kathryn $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Kathryn, and I've been immersed in caregiving since 2013, starting with babysitting my two nephews- each with very different personalities and needs. One is autistic and more sensitive and introverted, while the other is energetic and outgoing, which taught me how to adapt quickly and support a wide range of temperaments. I’ve led Sunday school classes for children ages 3–11+, often managing groups of up to 15, which helped me develop strong multitasking and leadership skills. Throughout high school and college, I continued babysitting for families with children ranging from infants to preteens. While attending college in Arizona, I joined Busy Bees Babysitting, where I became CPR and First Aid certified and worked with kids of all ages and family dynamics. In 2023, I became a nanny for three girls (3 months, 4, and 7 years old), and truly grew into a big-sister role. I’m dependable, adaptable, patient, and passionate about providing a safe, fun, and supportive environment for every child I care for!

Amelie $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’ve been babysitting since I was 12, and over the years I’ve cared for kids of all ages. Most of my jobs came to me through word of mouth and referrals from neighbors, family friends, and local families who trust me. I’ve also looked after pets (cats, dogs, snakes, and even fish!) and I’m comfortable juggling the moving parts of a busy household while keeping things calm and safe. I especially enjoy working with slightly older kids around 9 or 10, but I also do great with toddlers and younger children, making sure they’re engaged, cared for, and having fun. I completed a babysitting training course when I was younger where I earned my CPR certification and learned how to care for children safely and responsibly. I’m reliable, communicative, and open to overnights on occasion. Above all, I want families to feel like they can fully trust me, that their kids are not only safe but genuinely happy and comfortable in my care.

$22 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Kew Gardens, NY

My name is Kasia. I speak Polish, English, some Italian, and a little Spanish. I studied ancient history/ Archeology, so I'm interested in history, especially the history of Ancient Rome, and art. I enjoy visiting the Metropolitan Museum, reading, and traveling. I've worked as a nanny in New York City for 20 years, caring for babies (including twins), toddlers, and preschoolers. I'm patient and calm, I love children, and I still maintain contact with them. I'm happy to help with travel and even babysit when parents are away. I'm also flexible and can work weekends, evenings, and nights if needed. I can also prepare children's meals, do light cleaning, iron, and care for pets.

Kasia took wonderful care of my children from 2021 through 2024. She worked for us in New York, then lived with us for 8 months in Florida and traveled with us to Europe, Vermont and Nantucket. She is flexible, patient, loving, fun and really cares about my children. She never forgets a birthday with presents, keeps them safe and well fed. In addition to caring for the children, Kasia cooks and manages laundry. You will be lucky to have her care for your children!!

"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)."
