Hi there! My name is Sharon and I am a graduate of Lewis & Clark College. I have experience working with children of all ages in many different settings. I have worked with children on the autism spectrum in an elementary school as a Behavior Intervention Implementor. Additionally, I worked full-time as a Personal Support Person for a child with Down Syndrome. I have also worked as a full-time nanny for a 3-child household. I am confident in my abilities to care for children with varying abilities with care, understanding, respect, and empathy. I also have tons of experience working at summer camps as both a counselor and art teacher! I love working with kids because it is genuinely so fun, challenging, and rewarding. Childcare is truly the best job out there. Thank you so much for visiting my profile, and I look forward to working with you!

Booked by 6 families in Richmond Hill, NY

Hello - my name is Jas! Currently I’m looking for some part time work, and I have availability for 1-2 evenings a week or weekend. I got into babysitting at a young age for kids in my neighborhood. As I got older I expanded into other parts of childcare as well! Some of my experience includes volunteering at my local children’s center as an after school aide, working and hosting birthday parties at my previous job, being a camp counselor every summer for years, and being a nanny for the past 4 years. I've been working with kids for almost 7 years now, and before the pandemic I was a part time crafts teacher at an after school program. I was in charge of a class of 10-15 kids for a few hours every week doing small projects together. All in all I adore my time with kids and I’m not afraid to get down on the ground and play with or engage your child when it comes down to it. I am very motivated to help children be happy, healthy, and well behaved. I am very interested in helping you with your child and I am really flexible with scheduling. I have previous caregiving experience in dropping off/picking up children, helping them with homework, doing crafts, preparing simple meals, doing indoor/outdoor activities, reading, bedtime routines, etc. If you have a pet I don’t mind! I am not allergic to cats or dogs so I am all good on that front. I look forward to hearing from you!

“Great with our dog!”

Booked by 2 families in Richmond Hill, NY

I’m Carly, and I’ve been a nanny for over 10 years, working with children from newborns to teenagers. With a background as both a caregiver and a creative performer, I bring a calm, imaginative, and nurturing presence into every home. I love incorporating art, meditation, and creative play into my time with kids, and I’m also happy to provide homework support and tutoring when needed. In addition to childcare, I offer light household help: laundry, dishes, basic cooking, and general tidying. to make your day a little smoother. I also have experience providing emotional support for hospice patients and the elderly, which has strengthened my patience, empathy, and communication skills. My approach is warm, reliable, and grounded, and I’m comfortable caring for kids, supporting seniors, helping with pets, and keeping a household running smoothly. . I’d love to connect and see how I can support your family!

“Carly was amazing pet sitting for our cat Sassy! She took excellent care of her and sent us pictures and updates. Thanks so much Carly! ”

"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)."
