Alex New York
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Alex! I'm a passionate, empathetic, and creative student. I've worked with my family and those in my neighborhood, along with working with younger children through school mentor programs. One thing you should know about me is that I always put one hundred percent into anything I do. When I do something, I don't like to do the minimum. In childcare, along with everything else, I bring my best self and effort to the table. I am always determined to make a good impression and go above and beyond in every aspect. I care deeply, and my passion drives me to always put my best foot forward. Whatever you are looking for, I will always come to a job the same way I approach all my other passions: with care, drive, and a commitment to excellence. My skills include meal prep and cooking for children, helping with homework or schoolwork, and providing quality activities and entertainment, including play, crafts, story time, and more.

Jayleen West New York
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hi I’m Jayleen! I have over 8 years of experience working with infants and toddlers. I am currently working as an orthopedic medical assistant but have over a year experience of being a Behavioral Technician with kids ages 3-7 that are on the spectrum. Imagine a babysitter/nanny who’s not just about keeping an eye on the little ones, but also turning every moment into a fun adventure. That’s me! With a touch for sports, games, creative crafts, and outdoor activities. I’m here to ensure your kids have fun while under my care. I’m excited to start a journey of laughter, exploration, and endless fun! I am also comfortable completing other responsibilities like running errands, tutoring, and tidying up. Fun fact: I am a college graduate and currently in an accelerated nursing program with an aspiration to become a Pediatric Nurse. Open to interviews in person and/or online.

I’m Jullia, 23 years old. I provide intentional, high-level childcare focused on structure, emotional intelligence, and developmental support. I am calm, discreet, and exceptionally reliable. I create organized routines that promote independence, confidence, and security while maintaining a warm and nurturing presence. I’m experienced managing full daily schedules, school coordination, enrichment activities, and maintaining a peaceful, well-structured home environment. I value professionalism, clear communication, and mutual respect. My goal is to become a trusted extension of your parenting style, offering consistent, thoughtful care tailored to your family’s standards. I’m also a strong driver, pet friendly, fully vaccinated and I have +5000 hours experience with kids! My main skills include preparing meals (my favorite hobby is cooking, and I would be very happy to cook for the child and for the family if needed), changing diapers, preparing bottles, and entertaining children without the use of screens. I am also passionate about mathematics and sciences and would be happy to teach or help children who need tutoring. I am fluent in English and Portuguese and have an intermediate level of Spanish. If your family would like, I can speak with the children in any of these languages and help them learn as well.

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
