Kristen $25 per hour for 1 child

My name is Kristen, and I would describe myself as caring, kind, and loving. I truly enjoy working with children and teens because of how genuine, creative, and full of potential they are. Growing up, I often cared for my nephews and nieces, and when my mom had my younger sister, I naturally stepped into a “second mom” role. Those experiences taught me patience, responsibility, and the ability to connect with children of different ages. I hold a college degree and I am CPR certified, which I believe provides an added sense of trust and security for families. Over the years, I have gained experience in babysitting, tutoring, and companion care, as well as pet sitting and light household support. I am also bilingual (English/Spanish), which I find to be a great advantage when helping children with language learning or schoolwork. In my free time, I enjoy coloring, going to the park, listening to music, trying new things, and going on little adventures. I am dependable, organized, and respectful, and one thing you should know about me is that I will care for your children as if they were my own. I am excited about the opportunity to become part of your family and to share not only my support and skills but also my warmth and dedication. I look forward to the chance to create a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for your children while learning from your culture and sharing mine.

Heather $21 per hour for 1 child

Some qualities that I have that make me a truly great caregiver are that I’m empathetic, patient, reliable, and I have a calm, steady presence about me that helps people feel safe and supported. I am a great listener, I pay attention to others’ needs, and naturally balance compassion with respect for people’s independence and dignity. I have vast experience working with children of all ages from infants to preschoolers to 3rd graders as well as children on the autism spectrum. My talent is that I make people feel safe, seen, & supported.

Maura $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Maura, and I’m a 27 year old childcare professional with over 12 years of experience. As the oldest of five, I naturally stepped into a caretaker role early on, beginning to babysit at 15. From there, my passion for working with children grew! I spent my high school years helping neighbors and family friends, continued to nanny throughout college, and supported students with homework and after school routines. After graduating in 2020, I ran a learning pod for four young children, where I helped guide their virtual schooling and created a structured, supportive environment that felt as close to a classroom as possible. I’m comfortable caring for children of all ages, from infants through school-age, and I have experience balancing the needs of multiple children at once. I’m also happy to help with household tasks and am very comfortable with pets. I’ve cared for families with dogs and cats and love including them in the daily routine. I aim to bring warmth, patience, structure, and fun into every home I partner with. I’d love to get to know your family and support your children as they grow!

Alicia $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Rockaway Park, NY

Hi, I worked as a part time nanny for occasional weekends or some nights for a family of 5 with three kids ages currently 2,5,9. We have become like family but with the dad having a family member in the home I was no longer needed for the occasional help. I am an accountant for my full time role but for private industry so no crazy hours on my end. I have assisted with homework, class projects and just general educational needs with both the 5 year old and 9 year old. But that’s not all we’ve done, we also enjoy doing arts and crafts and now I can proudly say I can name multiple K-pop groups.

"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)."
