$25 per hour for 1 child

Being part of a child’s happiness, growth, and development is incredibly rewarding, and I truly love what I do. I enjoy helping babies, toddlers, and children reach new milestones, learn new skills, and build confidence. Watching a child accomplish something new brings me so much joy because I know I’m helping them grow into amazing individuals. I am caring, patient, dependable, and attentive, and I strive to create a safe, nurturing, and fun environment for every child in my care. I have over 10 years of babysitting experience caring for children of different ages. In addition to providing quality childcare, I have assisted with household duties, meal preparation, light housekeeping, school pick-ups and drop-offs, and transportation to after-school activities and appointments. I enjoy supporting busy families and giving parents peace of mind, knowing their children are in caring and capable hands.

“She’s great with kids, she has a lot of patient. She’s is passionate with job. I strongly recommend her.”

Talia $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I am 24 years old and a recent graduate of NYU Steinhardt’s Master in Musical Theatre. Growing up I babysat for family friends often, ages ranging from under 1 to 11 years old. My two favorite people in the world are my niece and nephew who are the most inquisitive,energetic, and kind little humans. I love being able to nurture curiousity while caring for kids. I have a musical background and cooking is my hobby so I know your kids would have a blast with me as their sitter! My hobby is also cooking! I studied at a traditional Italian restaurant in Siena for two months, and my Italian mother taught me everything she knows! I can cook and meal plan for a big family as well as a small household. My current job is as a House Manager and Costumer at Blue Man Group. I love when kids come to show because they are so excited and ask so many questions and are absolutely the most fun audience members. We often have school groups ranging from preschool to high school and engaging with the students and their questions is one of the most fun aspects of my job. I do not have a car but I do have a valid driver’s license and can take the train.

"Johanna is AMAZING! My two boys love her - she does everything from amazing arts & crafts, to helping with homework, to getting them playing outside! She also drives them and does everything involved with after school activities: packing snacks, getting the right gear, etc."

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."

"Caitlin has been such a lifesaver for our family. We hired Caitlin to help with the after school routine. The kids took to her instantly. She does it all - school pick ups, dinners, baths, lunch making, clean up, etc. She has really helped make a busy time so much easier for us."
