Hey There! I’m Derek i’ve worked at the YMCA since I was 14, spending over 4 years of experience in aftercare and summer camp for kids aged all the way from 3-13. I currently have my CPR, Med-Admin, and Child Care Certifications up to date. I’ve been told i’m patient and playful, great for keeping kids active and engaged. I’ve also had pets my whole life, big and small, so I’m comfortable with walking, feeding, sitting or any light household task. I’m more than happy to help with any elder care. Currently a sophomore at Pace University and I bring energy and care into each job guaranteed, always ready to help when needed!

Derek is an amazing babysitter! He is dependable, punctual, and clearly loves working with kids. My child felt comfortable and happy right away, and I appreciated the thoughtful updates throughout the evening. I felt at ease knowing my child was in such good hands. Highly recommend!

Hi, my name is Suman. I am a skilled babysitter who has a long term experience with kids. I have a cheerful personality so kids get along with me pretty well. Currently work in Finance at a global company; doing babysitting as a side gig. i charge $30 per hour because I understand how refreshing it is to come back to a clean house after a fun night out. Therefore, not only will i provide babysitting service, but will also leave your house/kitchen clean and tidy. I make sure to clean up around the house and organize. I wash any leftover dishes in the sink so you don’t have to! You will get your money’s worth for sure. A little more about me: I have worked at a tutoring center 'KUMON' in the past. I have childcare experience with more than 30 families and i am able to provide great references upon request. -I graduated from Rutgers Business School in August 2021 CPR/AED certified/non-smoker. -Patient and able to engage with kids using non-technological resources such as singing, reading books, playing with toys, coloring, painting, playing outside. (parents should be willing to pay for uber for one time babysitting requests) My hobbies include weight lifting. (i am also a certified personal trainer)

Booked by 1 family in New York, NY

Hi families! My name is Gio, but kids call me Gigi. I have over three years of childcare experience. Recently, I worked with a family in the East Village, caring for two 12-year-old and two 10-year-old girls. I helped with school pick-ups, after-school activities, playdates, homework support, meal preparation, and even stayed late sometimes. I also helped with laundry, errands, and maintaining routines to keep the household running smoothly. Before that, I worked as an au pair in both Connecticut and Italy, caring for young children (around 2 years old) and supporting families with daily routines, outdoor activities, meals, and age-appropriate play. I’m reliable, organized, patient, and enjoy building strong relationships with both children and parents. I believe in creating a safe, positive, and engaging environment while also helping families feel supported. I’m currently a student in New York City and have a flexible schedule. I’m available for after-school care most weekdays, but I can also accommodate longer daytime schedules on certain days each week. I’d be happy to discuss availability and find a schedule that works well for your family.

Gigi has been an extraordinary babysitter, very reliable, very flexible, very nice and easy to deal with.

"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
