Meitav $25 per hour for 1 child

My name is Meitav and I have been working in child care for over 13 years! What started out as being a mother's helper to people in my community when I was 12 slowly graduated to nanny and babysitting gigs that I've done with families with various ages and needs up until today. I was a preschool teacher for 3 years for ages 4 and 5 and worked for 4 years as an after school teacher to K-1 students. I also worked as a Hebrew and English tutor for 3 years to kids ranging from kindergarten to 7th grade. I have worked with ages 5 months to 13 years old. I have experience working with kids with special needs and in houses with food allergies and kashrut laws. I can cook, bake, and clean, and while I do not have a car, I am comfortable transporting kids via the MTA! I studied painting in college and specialize in creating fun and engaging activities for kids of all ages that include the arts and other creative forms of expression. Please reach out!

Yodeline $25 per hour for 1 child

My background in caregiving comes from years of serving in my church’s children’s ministry, where I regularly care for babies and young children during services and women’s group meetings. I also babysit for multiple families, which has given me experience with different ages, routines, and personalities. These opportunities have taught me how to create a safe, nurturing, and fun environment for children while also being responsible and dependable for parents. My qualifications come from hands-on experience, consistency, and trust that families place in me. I’m patient, attentive, and always ready to engage children with play, learning, or simply offering comfort when they need it. I treat every child as an individual and take the time to understand their needs. The traits that make me a great caregiver are my patience, compassion, reliability, and genuine love for children. I bring energy, care, and stability that help kids feel safe and valued.

"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)."
