Booked by 2 families in South Richmond Hill, NY

Hi! I’m Jenna, and I have over 4 years of babysitting experience caring for children from infants to middle schoolers. I also have experience with children with special needs, which has made me patient, understanding, and adaptable to every child’s unique needs. I also volunteered and worked as a clerk in the NICU, Pediatrics, Postpartum, and Labor & Delivery units, where I gained hands-on experience caring for newborns, children, and supporting families. I assisted with patient care, responded to their needs, and worked alongside nurses to help create a safe, caring environment. I love keeping kids engaged through crafts, games, outdoor activities, reading, baking, and homework help, while always following parents’ routines and preferences. I’m reliable, caring, easy to communicate with, and committed to creating a safe, fun, and positive environment. References are available upon request!

We highly recommend Jenna for any babysitting or nanny position. She watched our 3-year-old twins while we were able to enjoy a relaxing date night, and we felt completely at ease knowing they were in good hands. She made sure they had dinner on time, followed their bedtime routine, and were asleep when we returned. She also took great care of our dog, which was a huge help. Jenna is reliable, patient, and very caring with children, and our twins really enjoyed spending time with her. We would definitely recommend her to other families and would gladly hire her again.

Hi there! I'm Elizabeth. Im 22 years old and live in South Slope :). I recently graduated from John Jay College Of Criminal Justice. I have been caring for children for 8 years as a babysitter and as the oldest of 2 siblings. I have a lot of experience working with toddlers and grade school children. I’ve spent half my life watching over my younger twin sisters who are deaf. They’ve taught me ASL along the way, so that’s a plus! I truly love working with young kids, and I approach each child as an individual who I get to help grow and teach. When I'm not in school or babysitting, I enjoy biking and watching shows. I'd love the opportunity to get to know your family and would be happy to provide references if requested.

I highly recommend Elizabeth as a babysitter. With her warm demeanor and responsible attitude, she creates a nurturing environment for children of all ages. Parents can trust her to prioritize safety while engaging kids in fun and educational activities. She is reliable, punctual, and has a natural affinity for connecting with children. Rest assured, Elizabeth will provide excellent care for your little ones, giving you peace of mind while you're away.

I am writing to introduce myself to new families. With over five years of experience providing both childcare and household support, I bring a strong combination of reliability organization and genuine care. I have worked closely , family of two children ages 1 and 7, where I supported their daily routines while helping maintain as a smooth, structured and positive home environment. My responsibilities included preparing nutritious meals, managing bath and bedtime routines, organizing educational and recreational activities, and engaging the children in sports such as soccer and basketball. I also incorporated creative play- crafting, reading, and learning activities- to support their development strengthen our trust based relationship. I take pride in being dependable, proactive, and adaptable. I understand that importance of maintaining safe, nurturing environment while balancing the practical needs of busy household. I would welcome the opportunity to bring my own experience, warm personality, and strong work ethic to your family.

Zaimyra $20 per hour for 1 child

Haii! I’m an incoming Pace University (NYC Campus) student who genuinely enjoys working with children. I have experience babysitting kids from 3months to 11 years old, tutoring after school. And I’m ALSO CPR certified. A day babysitting with me : I like to keep things fun while still following the family’s routine. We might start with a snack and some homework, then switch it up with arts and crafts, games, a movie, playing outside, or exploring something new( definitely excited about this). I’m big on letting kids have fun while still making sure they feel comfortable, heard, and safe. Before the parents come home, I’ll make sure everything is cleaned up and the kids are settled into whatever routine they normally have. I like to actively keep the kids busy and myself, so their interests are very important to me. Parents are updated every few hours and occasional check in when it’s my day off. Having open communication is my biggest priority. I’d describe myself as kind, outgoing, easy to talk to for the most part lol and someone who always tries to bring positive energy wherever I go. I’ve always believed the best jobs are the ones where people are genuinely happy to see you walk through the door. I want to be the sitter kids get excited about and the person parents can trust without worrying. As I’ll be moving away from my own family to start college, I know how important it is to have people around you who make you feel safe, supported, and cared for. I hope I can be that person for the families I experience New York with while building a foundation for connections. I’m currently available for after-school care, date nights, and completely available on the weekends!!! I can adjust as needed and do very early mornings but it’ll be tedious. Face time call or in person meet before official start day!!! Feel free to reach out and ask me questions and for references.

"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)."
