Jocelyn 5 reviews
$24 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Rockaway Park, NY

Hello! My name is Jocelyn, and I am a 23 year old student studying at New York City college of Technology. I speak Spanish and have over six years of experience in child supervision! My journey began as a summer camp counselor at the age of 17, later becoming a afterschool counselor. As an elementary school counselor my responsibilities have been to ensure the safety and wellbeing of all the children, leading arts and crafts activities and providing homework assistance. Watching them learn, grow, and get excited about new things makes working with children enjoyable. I also have over 2 years of sitting experience! Growing up as the oldest sister of two and cousin to two younger kids, I’ve always been a nurturing role model. I am fully vaccinated and willing to provide proof. I hope to hear from you soon, thank you!!

Ashley $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi everyone, I’m Ashley! Caring for kids has always been a natural part of my life. As the oldest sibling, I’ve been the go-to person in my family for years, especially when parents are traveling and need someone dependable to hold down the fort. Beyond my family, I’ve babysat friends' kids, worked with children through my church’s praise dance group, and I regularly do kids' hair. These experiences have taught me a lot about being patient and making sure kids feel comfortable. I’m very big on safety and being aware of my surroundings, so my top priority is always making sure your home is secure and the kids are well-protected. I’m also a dog mom to a Pomchi! I'm great with small dogs and comfortable with other pets too, as long as they are friendly with new people. I truly understand the trust it takes to leave your children with someone new, so I’m more than happy to do a quick phone call or Zoom meeting so we can get to know each other first. It helps me feel more connected to the families I work with and ensures everyone feels safe and comfortable! I’m reliable, I show up on time, and I love keeping kids engaged and well-cared for. I’m also happy to help with hair or any light tasks you might need.

Hi my name is Chuck and I love working with pets. I've been working with them for over 5 years now. I do it full time and have gained so much experience that has helped keep me and the pets I take care of safe and happy. I get a personal joy from knowing that these beautiful animals are taken care of and that their owners are happy with the job I've done. I'm always happy and ready to do it again and again

Booked by 1 family in Rockaway Park, NY

Hi there! My name is Rosa and I currently live in Brooklyn. I have experience babysitting toddlers from 3-5 as well as children from 7-12. I pride myself in being a fun, reliable, responsible, kind and patient caregiver. Aside from babysitting, I also have previous experience working as a housekeeper and can offer my services in the household with light cooking and cleaning. I love helping younger minds explore their creative side with fun activities, games and arts and crafts. I am also fluent in Spanish if needed! :)

Rosa has been a great sitter and took gppd care of my 2-year old daughter Stella :) Whenever she's around, I could hear Stella giggling in the other room. She was super patient and took the time to find interesting activities to keep her engaged. She's also very nice and easy to get along with. Too bad she's moving to another neighborhood, otherwise I'm definitely happy to keep her as a long-term sitter!

"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)."
