Booked by 20 families in Whitestone, NY

Hi! I’m Nylaah and I’ve been a professional nanny in NYC for four years now, along with over eight years of babysitting overall! I absolutely love working with children and believe in creating a warm, playful, and creative environment. Whether we’re reading stories, baking treats (a personal favorite), exploring the outdoors, or tackling homework, I strive to make every moment engaging and positive! My experience includes: • Caring for infants, toddlers, and school-aged children • School drop-offs and pick-ups • Organizing fun and educational activities • Preparing healthy meals and snacks • Running errands and scheduling appointments • Homework help and after-school routines • CPR/First-aid certification I’m currently seeking another full-time position for this school year, and hopefully something long term! I’m also pretty flexible and I’m happy to help out for date nights, weekends, or as an extra pair of hands when you need it most! Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you’re in need of a sitter! I look forward to hearing from you! :) *Four hour minimum. Jobs canceled with less than 24 hours notice are billed for the full scheduled hours

Booked by 45 families in Whitestone, NY

My name is Justine I have been working with children and family’s for over 10 years. I have experience with children with special needs as well. I am able to complete house chores extra curricular activities. I have worked with multiple families and don’t mind being on call when needed. I also do nanny share depending on what you like. I have in the past done tutoring and homework help. I am very flexible and willing to be of help where I can.

“We were incredibly lucky to have Justine as our night babysitter from the time our son was born. She took care of him 5 and sometimes 6 nights a week for over three months, and her support made an enormous difference for our family during those early weeks. Justine is exceptionally caring, attentive, and trustworthy. She has a real gift with babies and was always generous with helpful tips, reassurance, and practical advice. Her communication was proactive and clear, she kept us informed, anticipated needs, and made sure we always felt confident and at ease. We truly felt that our son was in the best hands, and her calm, professional presence allowed us to rest and recover. We would recommend Justine without hesitation to anyone looking for a night babysitter or newborn care, she is simply wonderful.”

Booked by 42 families in Whitestone, NY

I have over 10 years of experience as a nanny and babysitter working with children ranging from newborn through elementary age. I also have a background in theater and love bringing that creativity and energy into my work with children. I view my role as a nanny as a teacher and believe children learn best through engagement, play, and exploration. I make it a priority to be fully present with the child rather than distracted by my phone. I enjoy taking children to museums, parks, libraries, and other activities that encourage curiosity and social development. I also have experience working in Early Childhood Education with a teaching style closely aligned with Montessori principles. I believe in positive redirection and creating an environment where children feel safe, supported, and encouraged to explore independently. I am bilingual in English and Spanish and would be happy to incorporate Spanish language exposure if interested. Coming from a Latin culture, I enjoy exposing children to different cuisines while always respecting dietary restrictions and family preferences. Depending on the child’s age, I also like involving them in meal prep and hands-on learning experiences. In addition to childcare, I enjoy helping maintain a clean and organized home through tidying, bottle cleaning, and meal prep support. I am currently part of the NYU Teacher Residency program and am seeking part-time work until my program begins in August.

“Natasha was great with our 1-year-old son!”

Booked by 4 families in Whitestone, NY

Hello! You can call me Fatou for short. I live in the Bronx, willing to commute. I’m 25 years old and a full time experienced babysitter/nanny. I’ve been on Urban-sitter for a year now. I’ve done over nights, school drop offs and pick ups, and occasionally one time jobs as well. Worked with 7 families so far. I do well with complex schedules as well. Why babysitting/nannying? Knowing how to take care of kids before becoming a mom myself <3 I prioritize safety, clear communication, and consistency while creating a comfortable environment where children feel cared for and parents can feel at ease. I’m a former summer camp counselor from the Little Shepards program, had lots of fun going on outdoor trips to the zoo, amusement parks and museums. I’m a big sister as well, my little sister Tita! She’s 8 years old and the sweetest thing ever. We do a lot of our own girly dates like movies, kids spa and quick errands with me. So far we’ve watched The little Mermaid, Moana, Mufasa, and Elio! I have a 2 year old British short hair cat so I have experience with kittens/cats. Definitely look forward to working with you and your little ones soon!

“Fatou was amazing! I needed someone last minute and she stepped in and saved the day! She had a great attitude and spent the evening with my 11 year old daughter. My daughter had a great time with Fatou and asked if she could babysit her again in the future. Fatou was punctual and communicative. I was at ease knowing that my daughter was in good hands. I would definitely recommend Fatou.”

Booked by 34 families in Whitestone, NY

I am a UCLA graduate with a degree in sociology and lots of experience in early childhood learning. CURRENTLY: I am on a cross country road trip so I am only available for occasional or one time babysitting. Great for emergency or last minute needs. I have been doing babysitting and childcare for about 6 years now for family and friends. I have always been good with children. I am the oldest child and the oldest of most of my cousins so I have grown up watching kids. I have been housesitting for over a year now for many pet owners that go on vacation for any amount of time from 3 days to a week. I have been helping out seniors in my family for a while as well since 3/4 of my great grandmothers are still alive and are in need of assistance when it comes to daily tasks. I have grown up around big dogs and other animals so I am pretty experienced with walking dogs and caring for them.

"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)."
