Sanai $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Sanai. I am responsible and caring 20-year-old college student with over 7 years of experience in childcare, from babysitting children of all ages to working in schools with students of all ages. I love engaging kids through creative activities like drawing, crafting, and playing music, and I'm also happy to help with homework, tutoring, and everyday tasks like cooking and chores. I'm comfortable around pets and would be happy to not only provide childcare, but petcare, housekeeping, and anything else you need.. I'm a quick learner and would be glad to discuss any special needs or requirements your family may have.

Erin $20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Rockaway Park, NY

Hi! I'm a Brooklyn-based university student pursuing a degree in Early Childhood Education. I have over five years of childcare experience, including four years working in preschool and daycare settings, and I am passionate about helping children learn, grow, and feel supported in a safe and nurturing environment. Most recently, I worked as a Lead Twos Teacher at Lightbridge Academy, where I was responsible for creating engaging learning experiences, supporting children's development, and maintaining a positive classroom environment. I also recently had the opportunity to be apart of an internship at Spruce Street School in New York City's Financial District, where I worked with elementary-aged students and supported classroom learning and activities. Prior to moving to New York, I worked for three years as an assistant teacher across multiple schools, gaining experience with children of different ages, backgrounds, and learning needs. I enjoy creating engaging activities, encouraging learning through play, building positive relationships with families, and making every day fun and meaningful for the children in my care. My experiences, combined with my studies in Early Childhood Education, have strengthened my passion for working with children and helping them learn, grow, and thrive.

Yanique $25 per hour for 1 child

I have 10 years of experience supporting families across New York as a nanny, personal assistant and house manager. I truly enjoy being part of a child’s growth and creating a safe, nurturing and engaging environment where they can thrive. I’m experienced in building consistent routines, preparing healthy meals, organizing creative activities and supporting children with schoolwork and daily development. In addition to childcare, I’m comfortable managing the day-to-day needs of a busy household whether that’s coordinating schedules, running errands or keeping things organized to help life run smoothly. Outside of childcare, I work as a photographer. I’m looking for a consistent position that fits well with my schedule. I currently work with one other family part-time and my availability remains flexible.

For Animals: I primarily have experience caring for dogs, and can also care for cats. I take care of dogs that are small to large (larger dogs must be more friendly, but I don't mind a small dog with trust-issues). I can take dogs on long walks and to the park. I don't have a car but can escort to and from schools or appointments via walking, public transit, or Uber.

"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)."
