Bailey $30 per hour for 1 child

Heyy my name is Bailey :) I'm a seasoned sitter, home helper and dance teacher! I have experience with children of all ages but usually work with kids ages 2-15. Here are a few reasons I may be a good fit for you and your family.. I am organized, playful, considerate, and highly energetic. I have previously worked as a certified lifeguard, and have over 8 years of experience teaching dance to children of all ages (completed studies at AMDA New York as a dance major) I have a lot of experience with dance, music, and the arts in general if that were something of interest to your family, I would love to give more in depth context and details. Another thing about me is that I was raised in a home with 3 siblings, I have the privilege of being an older and a younger sister! (middle child woop woop) This has given me vast knowledge and insight into sibling's dynamics and just how different each child's needs are. I am new to this app so I am open to any and all new relationships and opportunities.

$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Ridgewood, NY

Hello, my name is Yralis Consuegra, a 43-year-old Colombian single mother with a bachelor's degree in accounting assistance. Today marks my last day after 11 years of dedicated service in customer service, where my primary goal was ensuring customer satisfaction. Unfortunately, the company sold its stores, but I see this as an opportunity to embrace change and pursue my passion for childcare. I moved to this beautiful country 17 years ago, carrying many personal dreams for myself and my son. Now, as my son is about to graduate from university, I have the time and opportunity to share my love and care with other children. I am an honest, responsible person with a great sense of humor. I love interacting with people, cooking, learning, teaching, traveling, and exploring different cultures. I hope to bring love, care, and happiness to the children I look after, helping them grow into joyful and well-rounded individuals. Thank you for considering me as a babysitter for your family. I look forward to the opportunity to provide the best care and support for your children.

"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)."
