Hi families! My name is Carolyn, and I have a genuine passion for caring for children and helping them grow in safe, supportive, and positive environments. I currently work at Champion Elementary in Daytona Beach in an ESE Pre-K blended classroom, where I assist students with a variety of learning and behavioral needs. But I am in New York for the summer . I was recently nominated for Paraprofessional of the Year by the Volusia Council for Exceptional Children and currently serve on the Conference Committee for the Florida Council for Exceptional Children. I am also enrolled at Daytona State College pursuing my AA degree through Volusia County’s Pathways to Teacher Program as I continue working toward becoming a certified teacher. I am coming up to NY for the summer of 2026 . I have experience caring for infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and elementary-aged children in both school and childcare settings. I enjoy creating engaging activities, helping with routines, supporting learning, and making children feel comfortable and cared for. Families often describe me as patient, reliable, caring, and easy to communicate with. I am CPR and First Aid certified and would love the opportunity to support your family and care for your little ones! I’m also a mom of 2 I have a 3 year old daughter & a 7 month old son .

Wonderful caring caregiver. Extremely reliable. Was immediately available when my previous sitter canceled last minute on a day when i had an important meeting and watched my little one from a few months old to toddler age today. Highly recommend!

Hi, my name is Annette! I’ve been a professional nanny for over 15 years, caring for children from newborns through 13 years old. Alongside my professional experience, I’m also a mom to a 4-year-old and a 13-year-old, which gives me an even deeper understanding of what families need and value in childcare. While being a nanny is my profession, it’s also something I genuinely love. Being present for children, supporting their growth, and helping them feel safe and supported is what drives me. As a parent, I truly understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your child — you’re trusting them with the most important part of your life. I treat every child in my care as if they were my own. My role is to keep them safe, nurture them, and build trust so they know I’m there for them when their parents can’t be physically present. I approach every family relationship as a partnership. We all rely on each other, so open communication and transparency are very important to me. I’m here to support your parenting style, not overstep boundaries — I’d want the same respect when it comes to my own children. My goal is to provide stability and peace of mind, and I hope every family I’ve worked with would agree that I do just that. Fun fact about me: I’m the mother of a daughter with a cochlear implant (she was born with profound hearing loss). Through that journey, I’ve developed a lot of patience and hands-on speech therapy skills, which I also bring into my work as a nanny. As the saying goes — it takes a village! I look forward to working with new families and reconnecting with past families as well. 💛

Annette was very personable and warm. She provided updates hourly and both of my kids loved her :) I felt very at ease with Annette and we are looking forward to working with her again!

Hi! My name is Vanessa ! I have been in the nanny/ babysitting field for over 9 years now! I am most familiar with the UES but I have also done occasional jobs all over New York! Right now I am looking for one time positions or part time positions. I love to have fun taking kids to the park or just hanging out at home!

Vanessa arrived on time, was a great boy sitter- she knew how to play with my 7 year old, help him get his energy out, & had him in bed on time & asleep before I got home, which I was grateful for. She also has a lovely demeanor, I would happily have her babysit again.

"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
