Yasha $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Yasha! I’m a full-time nanny with 5+ years of experience supporting children from infancy through early adolescence—including two years with Jumpstart’s early literacy program and three years as a private nanny to high-profile families in NYC. I’m CPR, First Aid, and AED certified for infants, children, and adults. I specialize in providing calm, emotionally attuned care for children navigating transition—whether that’s a new sibling, a big move, or loss in the family. My background also includes: School pickups, after-school routines, Bedtime transitions, travel prep, homework help, creative play, and extra-curricular support. I’m also a graduate of NYU with a professional background in film, theatre, and fine art. I love sharing my creative passions with the families I work with—don’t be surprised if your little ones start directing, writing, or starring in their own kitchen musicals. I bring warmth, consistency, and clear communication to every household I join. Currently available for full-time or high-retainer roles in the NYC area. Let’s connect and see if it’s a good fit!

Darlene $30 per hour for 1 child

I am proud to say that I have dedicated most of my young adult life to working with children. From the age of 16, I have coached kids ages 4 to 15 in the game of golf and provided therapy in a clinical setting for kids ages 4+. Currently, I am a Master's student at Columbia University studying psychology with plans to become a doctor. My goal is to continue working with children who have been victims of intrastate and global conflict. My passion for working with kids is everlasting and I am dedicated to creating a safe and fun place for them to explore their creativity. I would characterize myself as curious, empathetic, resilient, determined, adaptive, and a strong communicator. I am excited about the opportunity to take care of your children and understand the immense responsibility that comes with the task. I am open to any questions you may have about my character and abilities. Thank you!

georgia $25 per hour for 1 child

I have had 2 decades worth of experience working with all kinds of children. I have worked with children on the spectrum and other children with special needs. I work however many hours you need me for and however many years. My last nanny job I was with the family for 10 years and have created a strong bond with them even after employment. My minimum is 25 dollars an hour because i still have my own grandchildren to care for. I love all children and would love to care for them and work with you.

Rachel $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I'm a passionate and experienced nanny with a Bachelor's degree in Fine Arts from the College of Charleston. I have a love for art, yoga, botany, and education, and enjoy using these interests to engage children in fun and educational activities. I worked previously as a primary nanny for three beautiful children (ages 5, 3, and 8 months), I have experience taking kids on play dates, teaching arts and crafts, and even going swimming. I'm happy to help with meal prep, errands, and other tasks to make your life easier. Safety is my top priority, and I always ensure that children under my care are well taken care of. I have great communication skills and am able to work well with parents to meet their expectations. Additionally, I have a solid understanding of child development and provide age-appropriate activities and care. If you're looking for a nanny who is enthusiastic, creative, and reliable, please don't hesitate to reach out. I'm excited to meet your family and provide excellent care for your children!

Jayson $21 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I’m Jayson, a young actor/artist from Baltimore, Maryland. New to Harlem, but I’ve spent some great times in NYC throughout my life. I moved here because I know that I am capable of thriving in a busy environment. In my youth, one of my passions was volunteering for, and eventually being a full time counselor with Bridges Baltimore. Bridges is an initiative to provide kids from Baltimore public schools with key learning and mentorship opportunities. During my experience I mainly worked with mainly middle school students, but I also helped programming for kids in 4th and 5th grade as well. I recently worked as a HHA for a senior citizen in Philadelphia as well. I am confident in my ability as a former psychology student and a current actor to be adaptable to any situation that your family presents!

"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."

"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)."
