Latiffa Ridgefield
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Latiffa, and I have over 5 years of experience working in childcare. I have cared for newborns, infants, and toddlers from a young age, and I truly enjoy being part of a child’s growth and development. I am reliable, patient, and passionate about creating a safe, loving, and supportive environment for children. In addition to childcare, I can cook, help with tutoring, and assist with household duties to help make day-to-day life easier for parents. I am allergic to cats, but I am comfortable working in homes with dogs. I genuinely love watching children learn, grow, and reach new milestones, and I take pride in supporting families in any way I can.

Blair New York
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Blair and I am a student at Pace University looking for a part time babysitting position. I have been babysitting since I was 15 for ages 11 and under. I have done numerous jobs from overnights, school drop off, date nights, and after school care. I also help with household duties to make life easier on your family! I also love pets and will take care of your fur babies as well! During my time with your children I try to be as active and present as possible. This looks like going to the park, doing arts and crafts, baking, helping with homework, and limiting screen time for your child and myself.

Booked by 1 family in New York, NY

Hi Parents! My name is Alejandra, and I am a college student seeking a consistent part-time nanny or babysitting position while attending school. I have experience caring for young children, including toddlers, and I enjoy creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children can learn, grow, and have fun. I am CPR trained, bilingual in English and Spanish, and have experience with overnight care. I enjoy planning age-appropriate activities such as reading, arts and crafts, educational games, outdoor play, and creative projects. I prefer interactive and educational activities over excessive screen time and strive to keep children engaged in meaningful ways. In addition to childcare, I can prepare simple meals, assist with daily routines, and help maintain a structured and positive environment. Families describe me as reliable, patient, responsible, and caring. I am currently seeking a long-term part-time position with a consistent schedule of at least 4 hours per day, Monday through Friday (approximately 20 hours per week). I am also occasionally available on weekends with advance notice. I am comfortable using public transportation and traveling throughout the area. My rate starts at $25 per hour. I would love the opportunity to support your family and provide dependable, high-quality care for your children. Thank you for your consideration, and I look forward to connecting with you!

Alejandra is a lovely girl who cared for my daughter from age 2 to 3 while we were in New Jersey, and she was someone our family really relied on enough to schedule her for overnight care. She helped with playtime, meals, and bedtime routines, and always made my daughter feel safe and cared for. She is very patient, kind, dependable, and great with children. We always felt comfortable leaving our daughter with her and appreciated how loving and attentive she was. I would definitely recommend her to any family looking for a trustworthy babysitter.

"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)."
