Celia $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Celia I’m originally from California and moved to New York two years ago to pursue a career in modeling. Along the way, I discovered that working with families through babysitting and nannying is something I genuinely enjoy—it’s the perfect balance with my schedule and something that brings me a lot of joy. I’m responsible, patient, and easygoing, with a real love for kids and helping out where needed. Whether it’s keeping your home safe while you’re away or making sure your little ones are happy, cared for, and entertained, I always show up with a calm, positive attitude. I have experience caring for children ages 3 to 7, including school pickups, cooking, helping with homework, and spending quality time together. I’m also comfortable with pets and happy to lend a hand with light household tasks. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and see how I can help make your days a little easier!

Maya $27 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Maya, and caring for children has always been a big part of my life. I was born in New York, grew up in California, and have been back in New York for the past seven years. I started babysitting in college and quickly realized how much I love helping kids learn, play, and grow. I come from a big family, so I’ve had lots of hands-on experience with little ones—including my 3-year-old brother and many younger cousins that I’ve proudly helped care for over the years. I know how important it is to create a safe, fun, and nurturing environment, and I always treat children with the same care and attention I would want for my own family. I’m a non-smoker, enjoy spending time outside, and love getting creative with arts and crafts. Whether it’s helping with homework, organizing fun activities, or simply being a kind and reliable presence, I take pride in making every day positive for both kids and parents. I’m currently looking for a full-time nanny position and would be excited to become a trusted part of your family’s support system!

I have experience with 3-12 year olds creating a fun environment and finding interactve activities around the city.

Hadrien $21 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Hadrien and I’m from Lyon, France. I speak English, French and Spanish. I recently completed my Master’s degree in France and I am currently studying at MiM for 3 months. I have 3 months of experience working in a childcare center, where I took care of children aged 1 to 14 years old. I organized activities adapted to their age, such as creative workshops, card games and board games, depending on the weekly theme. I am patient, responsible and energetic, and I really enjoy spending time with children, especially doing outdoor activities like going to the park. I am also very comfortable with pets, as I grew up with animals. I have one dog and three cats, and I love taking them out for walks and spending time with them. I would be happy to take care of your children and/or pets :)

"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."

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)."
