Lily $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Lily and I am a recent graduate of Bennington College where I studied Visual Arts and Poetry. I am offering child care, pet care, and household services! I love being a babysitter. I took care of the same family all throughout high school (4 years) watching two toddler-aged into kid-aged children and a dog. My responsibilities included helping with homework, doing crafts, transportation to/from extracurricular activities, walking the dog, and playing by the pool. For the past two summers I have worked as a camp counselor for ages ranging 5-12 years old. Both being out in nature, I have experience supervising children at lakes and oceans, leading hiking, and creating/teaching arts and crafts activities. I feel passionate about fostering creativity within kids through art! I have 10+ years experience volunteering with children with developmental and behavioral special needs. I am trained in behavior management and feel equipped to handle most cases. I am offering pet and household services as well. I have grown up with multiple cats and dogs so am used to animals and love them! I can do household tasks as well including cooking, cleaning, and running errands. I have experience caring for plants. I am First-Aid and CPR certified!

Corinne $25 per hour for 1 child

I have experience babysitting for multiple families, caring for children of different ages, and supporting their daily routines in a safe, fun, and structured environment. I'm responsible, patient, and energetic, and I enjoy creating activities that keep kids engaged while also making sure they feel supported and comfortable! In addition to childcare, I was a peer mentor in college, where I helped guide and support fellow students academically and personally. That experience strengthened my communication skills and the ability to connect with others in a supportive and understanding way. I have a BFA in Musical Theater as well, so anything music or performing arts related I love to share/teach children. I also have experience caring for pets, including feeding, walking, and making sure they are well looked after. Overall, I'm dependable, caring, and I take pride in being someone families can trust!

Griselda $30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Paramus, NJ

Hi — my name is Griselda, and I'm offering child care in NYC. I love being a caregiver and have been watching over newborns, infants, toddlers, and school-age kids for 24 years. My responsibilities have included daily routines, playtime, meals, and speaking Spanish together so kids can build their language skills." I bring warmth, patience, and energy to everything I do, and I'm always attentive to the children in my care. I deeply understand the responsibility that comes with caring for someone's child — every family's trust means everything to me, and I care for each child's well being as if they were my own grandchildren. I am available to work weekends and evenings, and travel with the family when needed. Spanish is my native language, and I'm also fluent in English.

"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."
