Booked by 1 family in Sunnyside, NY

Hi - my name is Sylvana and I just graduated from Williams College. I offer childcare, senior care, and household services. I love helping out with kids, and have been babysitting since I was in the eighth grade. I grew up in New York, so I’m very familiar with babysitting in the big city! I am also an experienced academic tutor, and am happy to assist in homework help and other miscellaneous tasks. I am able to run errands for the household, or assist in cooking or cleaning. I am also experienced in caretaking roles, and would be happy to help out with senior tasks— I am able to cook and clean, and am always happy to chat. I have experience working with smaller dogs, and am glad to help out with cats or other pets.

Dynasty New York
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Dynasty, I’m from Brooklyn NY born & raised . I’m patient , reliable & also someone who shows empathy when it comes to working with kids and working with children isn’t just my job it’s my passion. I’m currently a paraprofessional, and I have hands-on experience supporting children on the autism spectrum, as well as children with a variety of learning styles and needs. I’ve taken care of a few seniors not to many but it is an open page in my book so I am providing those services . I’m someone who grew up around pets and pets are just another child to me so they were never an issue . I’d pet sit for everyone whether it was vacation on . I believe in creating a safe, positive, and engaging environment where kids can be themselves, feel supported, and have fun while learning. I’m patient, attentive, and skilled at adapting activities to fit each child’s personality and abilities. Whether we’re working on communication skills, enjoying creative play, or simply sharing a laugh, I make sure every moment counts. Parents can feel confident knowing their child is in caring, capable hands with someone who genuinely loves what they do and understands the importance of building trust and connection.

Abigail New York
$29 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Abi, a Behavioral Specialist with over 10 years of professional experience working with children in schools, private childcare, tutoring, and residential settings. I specialize in supporting neurodivergent children, including those with ADHD, autism, and sensory processing differences, while creating a fun, structured, and nurturing environment where every child feels safe, understood, and confident. I believe the best childcare balances warmth with consistency. Whether we’re doing arts and crafts, reading, exploring outside, helping with homework, or navigating big emotions, I strive to meet children where they are and encourage their curiosity, independence, and growth. Families describe me as calm, reliable, patient, and engaging. I’m proactive, communicate openly, and enjoy helping households run smoothly by preparing meals, maintaining routines, organizing play spaces, and anticipating what’s needed before being asked. Along with my childcare experience, I have over 10 years of tutoring experience and love making learning enjoyable through creative, individualized support. I have experience caring for infants through school-aged children, am CPR certified, have excellent references, and am comfortable with pets, transportation, and light household tasks. My goal is always the same: to become someone children look forward to seeing and someone parents feel completely confident trusting with the people they love most.

Parker New York
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I'm originally from Los Angeles and just graduated from Boston College, where I studied English and marketing. I've spent the past several years babysitting for about 5 families across LA, so I'm comfortable with kids of different ages and personalities. I'm one of three girls in my family, and I grew up with two very energetic dogs at home—so I'm no stranger to chaos (or cleanup)! In my free time, I love watercolor painting, playing volleyball, and dreaming up fun activities and games to keep kids engaged and entertained. I'm also proficient in French and always happy to practice with kids who are learning or in a bilingual household! I currently work part-time as a jewelry stylist and sales associate at Gorjana, so my availability varies depending on my shifts, which fall between 10am–7pm, plus two full days off each week. I'm happy to work around my schedule to find a time that fits yours!

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
