Jules $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! I’m Jules, a warm, dependable, and highly responsible caregiver who genuinely enjoys creating a safe, positive, and comfortable environment for others. I have over eight years of babysitting and nannying experience caring for children from newborns to middle schoolers, along with four summers of experience as a head camp counselor for children ages 2–5. I’m patient, attentive, organized, and naturally nurturing, with a strong sense of responsibility and professionalism. I understand that inviting someone into your home and trusting them with what matters most to you is a big decision, and I take that trust seriously. I’m someone you can count on to communicate clearly, follow your family’s routines and expectations, and approach every responsibility with care and enthusiasm. I’m also energetic, adaptable, and creative, and I love making everyday activities engaging and enjoyable. My goal is for both children and parents to feel comfortable, respected, and confident in my care. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and become someone you can genuinely rely on!

Booked by 2 families in West Hempstead, NY

Hi My name is Fania, and I’m a caring, patient, responsible, and dependable person who genuinely enjoys helping and caring for others. I have about 2 years of experience caring for children from 2 months to 13 years old. I truly enjoy working with children and spending time with them. I like playing with them, talking with them, reading books, helping with homework, preparing simple meals and snacks, and finding fun and age-appropriate activities to keep them engaged. I also have experience caring for adults through agencies and I have a Home Health Aide (HHA) certificate. My experience has given me the opportunity to work with different families and provide support based on each person’s individual needs. I’m comfortable helping with daily routines, providing companionship, and making sure the person I’m caring for feels safe, comfortable, and respected. Although I really enjoy working with children, I’m also open to caregiving opportunities with adults and families who need a reliable and caring person to help them. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your loved ones. I take my responsibilities seriously, I’m attentive to their needs, and I always treat the people I care for with patience, kindness, and respect. I would love the opportunity to support your family, whether you’re looking for childcare, adult care, or general caregiving support. I look forward to meeting you and learning more about how I can help! ❤️

Kaele $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Kaele and I am 26 years old. I have my bachelors in Psychology and am planning on becoming a pediatric Occupational Therapist. I have always been good with kids and I proved that when I decided to babysit. Eventually I started working at an elementary school and worked as an aide for special needs kids. I worked with 3-6 year olds for 2 years and am looking to continue working with kids in general. I am reliable, friendly and most importantly respectful. Kids love to spend time with me because of my calm nature and I find ways to keep them happy, safe and entertained. I have experience with many different age groups due to finding babysitting jobs as part times after high school! I enjoyed every second. My duties included driving/picking up from school, take kids to activities, play, make sure they eat and do their homework. I also have helped out with homework and light housekeeping.

"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)."
