Isabela $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Isabela! I’m new on Urban Sitter, and I’m a recent college graduate with a strong background in childcare and youth programming. I speak English, French, and Spanish fluently and enjoy working with families from many different backgrounds. I grew up in a household where caring for children was always part of daily life, which taught me responsibility, patience, and attentiveness from an early age. Beyond family care, I spent two summers as a camp counselor at the Humane Society of Broward County Kids Club Summer Camp, where I helped lead activities, supervised groups of children, and also gained hands-on experience caring for pets. Whether helping with homework, keeping kids engaged with creative activities, or supporting families with pet care, I bring enthusiasm, reliability, and a nurturing approach to everything I do.

Booked by 1 family in Woodside, NY

I am an experienced caregiver with a calm, warm, and steady presence, and I bring a strong sense of organization and emotional awareness to every family I work with. Over the years, I’ve cared for children of different ages and personalities, and I’ve learned how to create routines that feel both structured and comforting. I focus on helping kids feel safe, understood, and confident in their own independence, while keeping the day flowing with ease and intention. My style is gentle but grounded. I stay fully present, I communicate clearly, and I adapt quickly to the rhythm of each household. I love creating moments of connection — reading together, exploring outside, building imaginative play — while also supporting the practical side of daily life. I’m comfortable managing schedules, preparing simple meals, organizing spaces, helping with homework, and keeping the home environment calm and functional. Families describe me as warm, reliable, and emotionally intuitive. I bring a sense of stability, kindness, and maturity that helps children relax and parents feel supported. Whether the day calls for creativity, structure, or quiet reassurance, I show up with consistency, patience, and genuine care. My goal is always to make the home feel lighter, smoother, and filled with a sense of trust.

Gabi is the sweetest, kindest and most patient person ever! My daughter and I absolutely love her. As a single parent, there are not many people who I trust to take care of my daughter, but Gabi is one of the few. She’s caring, responsible, always on time and flexible. 100% recommend her!

Yangzen $25 per hour for 1 child

I’m seeking a part time babysitting job for the weekdays In the past 7+ years, I've taken care of children between the ages of 3yrs - 13yrs as an after school babysitter and infants occasionally for date night. I’ve also tutored elementary aged children in an afterschool program do I’d be happy to help with any homework. I mostly like to spend time with children playing fun activities such as playing board games, solving puzzles, building legos, coloring, drawing, painting, or creating arts and crafts. Besides babysitting I’m also open to helping around the house with light cleaning, meal prep, laundry and folding.

"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)."
