Alessia 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child

I am a compassionate, dependable, and patient caregiver who truly values creating a safe and nurturing environment for children. I’ve been caring for kids since I was young — starting as the oldest sibling helping raise my younger siblings, and later babysitting throughout my teenage years. Those early experiences helped me develop strong responsibility, attentiveness, and a natural ability to connect with children of different age

“Alessia has been an incredible caregiver for our family. She has taken care of our kids on multiple occasions—whether for date nights or other events—and every time has been a great experience. She is reliable, punctual, and naturally connects with children in a warm and engaging way. Our kids genuinely enjoy spending time with her, and we always feel at ease knowing they’re in good hands. Alessia is attentive, responsible, and goes above and beyond to make sure everyone is comfortable and happy. We highly recommend her to any family looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”

I have been working with children since 2013. From 2013 to 2016, I taught children in educational settings, which helped me develop patience, creativity, and strong communication skills. Since 2014, I have also been babysitting and have experience caring for children of different ages, from newborns to school-aged kids. I am comfortable caring for multiple children at the same time. Most recently, I cared for three boys at once, managing their different routines and needs, picking them up from daycare and school programs on time, preparing meals, playing with them, and helping with their evening routine. This experience strengthened my ability to stay organized while making sure each child receives individual attention. I also cared for a baby from 1 month old until her first birthday while her mom attended classes at NYU. My responsibilities included feeding, diapering, playtime, and both daytime and overnight care, including responding when she woke up during the night. In addition, I have experience as a private tutor for a child on the autism spectrum. This experience taught me the importance of being patient, adapting my communication and teaching approach to the individual child, providing clear guidance, and allowing them to learn and engage at their own pace. I understand that every child has different needs, personalities, and ways of communicating. I am a cheerful, patient, and dependable caregiver who genuinely enjoys spending time with children. I love planning fun, age-appropriate activities, helping with homework, reading stories, playing games, and creating a safe and nurturing environment where children can learn and have fun. I also love cats and enjoy taking care of plants, and I always treat every family's home with respect and care. My background in psychology has further strengthened my communication, empathy, and understanding of individual differences, helping me connect well with both children and parents.

"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)."
