Hello, my name is Allison, though I prefer to go by Alli. I am CPR certified and hold both my Home Health Aide (HHA) and Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) certifications, ensuring that safety and wellbeing are always prioritized in my care. I currently work in recruitment sales, which provides me with a highly flexible schedule. Although my primary career is in a different field, I have several years of experience working with children, ranging from 3 months and older, and have cared for multiple children at once. I take great pride in creating a nurturing, engaging, and well structured environment. I genuinely enjoy cooking and maintaining a clean, organized space, and I am always happy to support families with both childcare and household responsibilities. In my personal time, I enjoy a TON of nature , reading, and spending time with my precious fur babies. I approach every role with genuine care and a strong belief based off of my personal experiences,that life is a beautiful experience; one that we shape through love and positivity.

I am 23 and an actor now residing in NYC. I was born & raised in Indiana and used to help keep my Nana company and would assist with my younger cousins. Being an actor, I love to play make believe with the little ones. I was also an assistant improv instructor for kids ages 5-12 and an acting teacher for neurodiverse/disabled teens and adults. I enjoy doing creative projects and interacting with children (preferred ages 4-12). Learn more about me at[removed] Pet Care 🐾 I’ve never met an animal I couldn’t befriend. I have experience taking care of dogs, cats, birds, bunnies, fish, and even some reptiles! Feel free to inquire about more specifics. You can also find me on Rover.

Madison was very friendly, super punctual, and great to communicate with. We will definitely be reaching out to her the next time we are in NYC. Thanks for hanging out with William tonight!

Booked by 16 families in Pelham, NY

Hello! My name is Jennessa (first name Kathryn). I'm 27, and have been a nanny and babysitter for multiple other wonderful families over the course of the past 7 years with kids ranging from newborn (4 weeks) to 10 y/o. While I am new to the UrbanSitters platform, I have previously worked through a nannying agency and will gladly provide references from my past clients. I love pets and am very comfortable with being around/ caring for them, am CPR/First Aid certified, speak Spanish, and have years of experience as a private tutor. I have a BA in English from Boston College and spent the past two years working a very draining writing job in the legal field. The entire time I missed the kids and families I used to nanny for, so I am regrouping and reentering the childcare field! My goal is always to provide a safe, fun, low-stress environment for children where they feel comfortable expressing themselves. I also love to foster the development of strong language skills and creativity through reading and storytelling. I am often described as calm, patient, creative, and engaging. I'd love to hear more from you and learn about your childcare needs!

"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)."
