Booked by 1 family in New York, NY

Hi! My name is Aisha, and I’m currently a student at John Jay College of Criminal Justice. I also work part-time as a paraprofessional at Success Academy Schools, where I support students throughout the academic year. I live in downtown Manhattan near Chelsea piers I’ve been a dedicated nanny for over six years, and I truly love what I do. Working with children brings me so much joy—I’m constantly inspired by their creativity and unique ways of thinking. My experience includes caring for children of various ages, helping them with daily routines, and fostering their growth through fun and educational activities. In addition to childcare, I offer tutoring support, helping children learn their basic words, phonics, and alphabet recognition using effective and engaging learning techniques. My goal is always to create a safe, supportive, and joyful environment where children feel confident and cared for. I look forward to meeting you and your little ones!

$24 per hour for 1 child

Hello, I'm a 42 year old local from Seattle WA. I'm very considerate, patient and engaging with children and enjoy being around them. Although I don't have nanny experience, I would love the opportunity to demonstrate myself as a positive, and responsible nanny and or housekeeper. I completed some college and am planning to return to school for construction management and early childhood education. Currently I'm in Seattle WA and am planning to move as soon as I'm able to find a job, and no later than August 20th, 2026. I love playing with kids and being responsible for them, caring for them, and providing supervision. I don't have kids but would like them someday. I'm a safe driver, great cook and love supporting families with fun, and safe childcare supervision.

Hi my name is Sarah. I just graduated from the University of San Francisco with a double major in Economics and Political Science. I recently moved to New York right after graduation. I have been a nanny/babysitter and tutor for over four years. During my time in SF, I worked with two lovely families with children ranging from infants to high school. I love working with kids and seeing them grow. Let me know if you have any questions. I’d be more than happy to schedule time for a chat. Thank you!

"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
