Hi! My name is Jessica. I am a recent college graduate with my Bachelor in Health Services Administration. I am a dedicated mom, and a proud pet parent offering child care, pet care, and simple household services. I recently completed my internship at an after school program where I worked with middle school students, helping supervise activities, support events, and assist with daily tasks. I also have previous babysitting experience and understand the importance of creating a safe, patient, and nurturing environment for children. As a pet owner, I am comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. I also provide simple household help such as light cleaning and organizing. I am reliable, compassionate, and committed to providing loving and trustworthy care for every family I work with🫶🏼!

Booked by 5 families in Whitestone, NY

Hello, my name is Michelle! I hold a bachelor’s degree in Forensic Psychology and have over 10 years of hands-on childcare experience. Throughout the years, I’ve cared for children of all ages—from infants to teenagers—including families with multiple children at once. In my role as a babysitter, I’ve enjoyed engaging kids in fun and educational activities such as arts and crafts, reading, homework support, outdoor play, and creative games like building with Legos or imaginative role play. I’m also experienced with meal preparation, light housekeeping, and providing overnight care when needed. Beyond babysitting, I’ve worked as a paraprofessional supporting children with behavioral needs in a school setting. This gave me valuable experience working one-on-one with students, reinforcing my patience, empathy, and ability to adapt to each child’s unique personality and needs. Parents describe me as reliable, caring, and enthusiastic. I love encouraging creativity, outdoor activities, and fostering a safe, positive environment where kids feel comfortable and happy. In my free time, I enjoy reading, traveling, and spending time with animals—so I’m happy to help in pet-friendly homes as well. I offer a flexible schedule and am just a phone call or text away. I also have strong references from previous families and supervisors, available upon request.

“My experience with Michelle was great. She would take my kids to the park, library and go to museums with them whenever there was an opportunity. She is always doing art projects with them during down time. She is Very reliable and trustworthy as my kids enjoy spending time with her. She is the queen of slime!”

"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)."
