Laura $27 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Laura and I’m a first year master’s student at Columbia University. I am offering child care, pet care, and household services. I’ve been babysitting for my own family and family friends since I was a pre-teen! I am the second of 5 kids, so I grew up with a good amount of childcare responsibilities, and I also worked as a nanny in high school. I also had experience in college working with preschoolers through Jumpstart. I love spending time outdoors with kids (parks, playgrounds, or home outdoor space!), and doing arts and crafts, games, or even helping with homework. I own a beagle-mix who I’ve had for 5 years, and I’m very experienced with taking care of dogs. I also have experience taking care of cats. I can also help with a range of household tasks, like cooking, cleaning, and running errands. However I can help out, I’m your girl!

Hi - My name is Nyrohah and I'm currently a junior at NJCU. I am offering child care, senior care, and household services. I love being a babysitter and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids since I was 17 years old. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts, tutoring, and sports skills like soccer, basketball. I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean, and run errands. I have been a caretaker for my own grandparents and am comfortable with senior care. I can cook, drive to appointments, or do other tasks. (I am also a great bridge partner!) I am happy to work with families with dogs too

Nyrohah was an excellent caregiver. My children love her and would like to see her again soon. She is very professional with her job and is an exceptional individual. I would definitely hire her because she is very responsible and generous.

"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
