Iveliz $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in New York, NY

Hello! My name is Iveliz, and caring for others has always been a meaningful part of my life. As a mother, I raised my son, who is now 14 years old, and have spent many years providing loving, attentive care to children of all ages. Most recently, I cared for a 6 month old and previously provided part-time care for family members' children ages 2, 4, and 9. In addition to childcare, I have extensive experience caring for seniors and individuals with disabilities. For several years, I served as a primary caregiver for my father, assisting him with daily living needs, companionship, meal preparation, transportation, light housekeeping, and emotional support. I am available for: • Infant and child care • After-school care • Date night babysitting • Light housekeeping and organization • Meal preparation • Senior companionship and non-medical assistance • Transportation and errands (if needed) Families describe me as patient, nurturing, dependable, and trustworthy. I genuinely enjoy helping others and creating a safe, caring environment where children and seniors feel comfortable, respected, and valued. I look forward to helping your family!

Kimora $20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in New York, NY

Hey there! My name is Kimora, I am an aspiring teacher in the making with both classroom and personal experience fostering children's personal growth and curiosity. I have been working in education and Childcare for roughly 5yrs mainly between the Pre-Kindergarten and 3rd Grade range. Meaning I am equipped with age appropriate games and crafts. I am also an intermediate artist and baker so if there are any future creative in this world I would love to nurture that as I do the kids in my own family. Small note if you've made it this far; I do not do crazy colors like my profile picture very often, maybe twice a year. But I wanted to be transparent with that in case my service with your family becomes more permanent in a year.

Christine $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Christine. I’m a 24-year-old childcare professional with a passion for nurturing and supporting children through every stage of development. I’m currently relocating from Denver to New York, and I’m excited to bring my experience and love for caregiving to a new family in the city! I grew up in Atlanta, where I began babysitting at 13 and discovered my lifelong dedication to working with children. I later became a certified nursing assistant and worked in the ICU at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, where I cared for medically fragile infants and children—an experience that strengthened my ability to stay calm, compassionate, and attentive in high-pressure situations. More recently, I spent a year teaching in the infant and 2-year-old rooms at Primrose Schools. I also nannied full-time for two children in a nanny share, from the time they were 3 months old until they turned 14 months. I love engaging little ones with age-appropriate activities that support emotional, physical, and cognitive growth. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, and I bring warmth, responsibility, and a proactive attitude to every caregiving role. I'm looking forward to finding a family where I can build a strong, trusting relationship and become a helpful and loving part of your daily life!

"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)."
