Audrey $27 per hour for 1 child

Hi My name Is Audrey, I am a Theatre major at BMCC. I am offering childcare and senior care services. I used to be a camp counselor at a summer camp. For 9 weeks in the summer I had 9 different cabins each week of at least 12 kids. I took care of kids from ages 8 to 16. I led them in various outdoor activities such as hiking, canoeing, swimming, frisbee, and the list goes on! My responsibilities included teaching my campers outdoor skills, keeping them on track with the schedule, and inspiring each camper to be the best selves they can be. I worked at this camp for two summers from 2[removed]. Then I lived at home for a year before moving to New York and I babysat on the weekends in Tulsa Oklahoma for a family with two kids 8 and 10. My responsibilities included driving the kids to the park, driving them to soccer practice, cooking lunch and dinner, and general housekeeping. During this same year, I worked as a housekeeper then as a concierge at a retirement home that had a skilled nursing and an assisted living center. I worked all of these jobs and saved up my money to move to New York in August of 2024. Since moving to New York I've worked various service industry jobs and took a break from the service industry to start school. Now that I'm in school I've decided to hop back into childcare and or senior care. I also grew up with 3 dogs and I currently live with and take care of my roommate's cat so I am happy to work for families with pets!

Suzanne $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Suzanne and I'm offering child care, cooking, household services, and any last minute overnights you might need for an adults night off! Living in Brooklyn, I enjoy staying active, whether it's a nice outdoor walk, or thinking up a fun indoor activity. My college degree was in educational psychology. I've been certified by Karma Kids to teach kids yoga, and enjoy many forms of movement & art making. Probably the most fun thing in my background was volunteering 6 years with Free Arts NYC, while working FT, and finding different ways to allow creativity to engage, empower, & have fun. I really enjoy babysitting and working with kids, making sure parents can feel at ease. I have watched all ages and have decades of experience and fun skills to offer. Open to drop offs + pick-ups via walking/subway/driving from school and activities, figuring out activities, crafts, and tutoring. I can also offer household assistance, meal prep, cleaning, and running errands. I'd love to see how I can brighten up your child and family's day!

Booked by 1 family in Rockaway Park, NY

Hi! I'm Emma. My journey into caregiving started with babysitting my twin sisters—and I haven’t looked back since! Over the years, I’ve had the chance to care for kids of all ages, and I truly enjoy creating a fun, safe, and supportive environment for them to grow and thrive. I’m hands-on and love getting kids involved in creative activities, learning games, and anything that sparks their imagination. Whether it’s helping with homework, organizing playtime, or just being a calm, steady presence, I bring patience and positivity to every job. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to help with light household tasks like cooking, tidying up, and running errands. I also have experience caring for seniors and am comfortable offering companionship, preparing meals, and supporting daily routines. I’m also pet friendly!

"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)."
