Maggie $40 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Maggie, 34, and kids have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I spent two years as a Peace Corps volunteer in rural South Africa, where I ran youth programs, facilitated an overnight camp for 40 young women, and worked hands-on with kids and families in the community every single day. Since then I've built a career in international development, working with foundations and nonprofits around the world. These days I work as a consultant, which gives me a flexible schedule and makes me really reliable for regular sits, last-minute evenings, or the occasional weekend. I'm patient, easygoing, and genuinely happiest when I'm playing, reading, or just goofing around with kids. I also speak French, so if you're looking for a little language immersion during playtime, I'd love to bring that in too. I take care of the kids I'm with like they're my own, and I'd love to meet your family!

Martina $20 per hour for 1 child

hello! My name is Martina and I am from Argentina. I am currently an au pair living with a host family in White Plains. I take care of 3 children (8, 9 and 12) who will go to summer camp for a month so I will have a lot of free time. Previously, I took care of a 3-year-old child for a year. I also love animals and I can take care of a house if necessary. I have good references too.

Latiffa $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Latiffa, and I have over 5 years of experience working in childcare. I have cared for newborns, infants, and toddlers from a young age, and I truly enjoy being part of a child’s growth and development. I am reliable, patient, and passionate about creating a safe, loving, and supportive environment for children. In addition to childcare, I can cook, help with tutoring, and assist with household duties to help make day-to-day life easier for parents. I am allergic to cats, but I am comfortable working in homes with dogs. I genuinely love watching children learn, grow, and reach new milestones, and I take pride in supporting families in any way I can.

Samantha $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Sam! I’m a second-year nursing student at Pace University, and I am offering child and pet sitting care. I am also CPR certified. I love babysitting and have experience caring for children ranging from 8 months to 10 years old. I know how to provide a fun and safe environment for kids of all ages, whether it’s helping with homework, preparing meals, or keeping little ones entertained with creative activities. I have my own car, so I can provide transportation for myself and assist with pick-ups and drop-offs as needed. I’m excited to continue babysitting—please let me know how I can help! :)

"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)."
