Hey guys-my name is Molly. I am a crafty preschool teacher who has recently moved here from Chicago. For younger kids I enjoy doing art, dancing and reading! For older children I like gardening, playing pretend and learning activities. I am interested in long term nannying or short term babysitting. Experience: I have three years experience working in schools and with children ages 0-5. As well as babysitting infants-Pre-K aged kids 2-4 times a week in that time. I have experience taking children on public transportation/walking to and from activities. I also have house maid experience and enjoy cooking, cleaning and organizing! In my free time I like lifting weights and making art out of recycled materials 😼 -CPR and First Aid Certified -Educated in standard child care practices -Non-smoking -Vaccinated

Booked by 1 family in New York, NY

I love being able to be part of a child's journey as they discover who they are and blossom into their unique selves. I excel at communication, possess a strong ability to understand and follow instructions, and am skilled in meal preparation. As I head into my senior year, I'm excited to continue my involvement in the fashion and art clubs, and I'm also making plans to pursue fashion and business in college.

$25 per hour for 1 child

I have 4 years of experience. I can help with Light Housekeeping and Errands. I have both a first aid and CPR certification. (I am certified in both infant and adult CPR.) I am good with pets, and can assist with those as well (if needed.) A little about me- I am 18 years old, and currently live in Chelsea. I have another part-time nanny job that leaves the hours of 8:30-5:00 fully open for me on school days. I am the oldest child, and have one younger brother who is 16. I have been working as a front desk receptionist at a hair salon since June 2023. I love getting to meet new people, and listen to their stories and experiences! In my free time, I love to read, go for walks with my dogs, bake, hang out with friends, visit with my grandparents, and also organize spaces! I am often referenced as the 'grandma' of my friend group as I like to go to bed early, wake up early, and would rather stay in and read a good book than go out. I have been babysitting/nannying for almost 8 years now, and really enjoy it.

I have worked at a summer program as a tutor/consular preparing higher schoolers for college. My experience during that time allowed me to develop skills that would be useful for babysitting, like time management and comprehension towards the Childs needs, as well as being patient. Being very attentive and alert is another important trait I have as a caregiver. I have also done dog walking and have a dog of my own which I take care of.

"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
