Booked by 1 family in New York, NY

I’m a Montclair student who loves tech, swimming, and dancing. I’ve spent over three years helping care for a younger family member, sometimes being in charge of meals, playtime, and daily routines. I made sure they were safe, happy, and engaged while their parents were busy. I am responsible, reliable, patient, and kind, and I enjoy helping others feel cared for. I take pride in being trustworthy and hardworking, always willing to step in when needed. My hobbies include swimming and dancing, which keep me energetic and focused. I’m eager to bring my dedication and positive attitude to a caregiving role and make a meaningful difference in the lives of those I assist.

Zoe New York
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hello!! My name is Zoe and I am a 23 year old graduate from UC Santa Barbara who recently moved to Brooklyn. I offer childcare (all ages), pet care, tutoring and other household help! I love working with kids because their curiosity and silliness is contagious, especially when I can introduce them to the crafts and games I grew up on! I have been working with kids of all ages (newborn - teens) since 2018. I have 5 years of experience working at a sleep away summer camp as a counselor, arts and crafts specialist and supervisor. I most recently worked as the Supervisor of Children’s Services at a Domestic Violence shelter, where I managed a daycare and afterschool programs for 80+ kids. I love playing games, leading arts and crafts, helping with homework and taking kids outside! Additionally, I can cook, clean, take care of pets, or help with whatever else you may need! I am CPR trained and am a Wilderness First Responder, which prepares me to respond to emergency situations. Please don’t hesitate to reach out! I would love to help in anyway I can!

Emily Brooklyn
$20 per hour for 1 child

My name is Emily, and I am 23 years old. I currently live in Bed-Stuy in Brooklyn, and graduated from City College this year with a degree in International Studies and Communications. The bulk of my child care experience has been in the past 10 years, from toddlers to teens. It has been a privilege to watch them grow up and help them embrace their interests. I worked in Brooklyn and Manhattan with some time in upstate New York as well, caring for two families who had kids ages 2-6. My experience included transporting kids on public transportation to and from school and their after school activities (via bus, subway, walking), as well as park time, cooking meals, attending events with the kids (dance classes, music classes, park meetups, hiking trips with family, and more), and playing games inside and outside, and help with homework. A special opportunity in child care I was lucky to experience was working as a summer camp counselor in the Santa Cruz Mountains in California, where I looked after campers age 5-13, as well as organized and took part in recreational outdoor activities. We spent our days hiking, playing cards, making string bracelets, learning about the environment, and camping out at night. When it comes to my interests and free time, I love traveling, cooking, roller skating, biking, and spending time at the park with my friends! The children I’ve babysat have a special place in my heart as I’ve seen them grow up. I'm excited to get to know you and your family!

"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
