Booked by 63 families in Astoria, NY

Hello Everyone!! I'm Alycia and I am 29 years old. I graduated from Pace university in lower Manhattan studying health science. I have about 13 years of experience babysitting for different families around New Jersey and New York. Also, I am the oldest of my 3 siblings and take care of them whenever my parents need me to. The ages that I have experience babysitting for are ages 4 months to 10 years. I worked as a children's party host for 3 years, in which children of different ages were entrusted to my care. My duties as a party host were to make sure that each child was fed, safe, and having fun at all times. At my job, the minimum amount of kids I would watch at a time would be 10 and the maximum could be up to 25. I am very creative, organized, energetic, and friendly. As a babysitter, I believe it's important to keep the kids engaged so I love to play games, activities, and crafts. I hope that I am the right fit for your family ! I can supply references upon request .Thank you !

Hi! I’m Ari! I am a high energy, patient and loving caretaker! I have 10+ years of experience working with infants, children and teens of all ages! I also have experience working with people that have been diagnosed with Autism and ADHD. I most recently worked at a local school as a teachers aide during the day for students ages 4-12. And after school as a high school boys and girls club counselor. Additionally, this past summer, I was also employed at a local day care for babies from 3mos- 3year olds in Riverdale, NY. During the school year, I can help work on school work with school aged children just as much as we can go to the park and play! I am open minded and always communicate my ideas with parents/guardians. I also have experience taking care of seniors, going to doctor’s appointments and accompanying seniors to day care facilities in the past as well as medication weekly distribution, glucose daily analysis (pinching finger to measure blood glucose levels.) I am an animal lover with experience walking, sitting and caring for animals( cats, dogs, frogs, turtles, fish, iguanas). I know how to keep a tidy home, wash laundry, cook and manage household errands as dry cleaning, booking appointments, grabbing groceries, post office errands and prepping for religious observances. Book me for your next vacation, work day or night off from the day to day hustle and bustle of NY!

Booked by 9 families in Astoria, NY

Hi! My name is Skylar, and I’m a recent UC Irvine graduate. I have several years of babysitting experience and have cared for children ranging from infants as young as 6 months to teens up to 17 years old. I enjoy adapting to each child’s needs, whether that’s playing, reading, helping with homework, or being a supportive and fun companion. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to help with light housework, meal prep, and keeping things organized. I also have experience working at a dog adoption center and caring for pets of all sizes, plus I grew up with dogs myself. I love playing games of all kinds, board games, outdoor games, and even video games, and I especially enjoy making learning fun, particularly with math. Families often tell me they appreciate that I’m responsible, caring, and always ready to keep kids engaged and happy in a safe environment.

Booked by 68 families in Astoria, NY

Hello my name is Sade. I am 30 and currently majoring in Speech Pathology. Starting at the age of 14, I began my first job at the Brooklyn Children's Museum. Working with toddlers at a young age taught me the patience I would need working with children. Years later I'm even more passionate about children and experienced with children aged 13 months to 15 years old, but I am also comfortable with younger infants. I can do anything that is expected from changing diapers and making sure your child is fed to helping with homework and getting them ready for bed. With amazing weather upon us, there are many kid-friendly activities to enjoy such as going to the parks, museums, shows, etc.

"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."
