Hi! My name is Brandon, and I’m 22 years old. I recently graduated from NYU’s Rory Meyers College of Nursing with a minor in Child & Adolescent Mental Health Studies. I currently work as a Pediatric Oncology/Hematology/BMT Nurse at a children’s hospital in New York City. Through my nursing career, I’ve had the privilege of caring for children from newborns to young adults. I am CPR/AED certified and highly attentive to children’s needs and behavior, which ensures your child’s safety and well-being. I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids and would love the opportunity to babysit for your family. While my nursing schedule can vary, I will always communicate clearly about my availability. In addition to childcare, I am happy to help with: Tutoring and homework support, school pick-up and drop-off, light cleaning and cooking, and general household tasks.

Josephine $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Josie, and I’m a rising senior at Fordham University. I offer child care, dog walking/pet care, and household help. I love creating a safe, fun, and positive environment where children feel cared for, engaged, and comfortable. I have experience babysitting children in my neighborhood, and I’ve built strong relationships with the families I work with. I’m responsible, patient, and energetic, and I enjoy keeping kids entertained through games, crafts, reading, outdoor play, music, and movement. I also have professional experience working with young children through Ballet Petite, where I taught weekly dance camps for children ages 3–6. In this role, I managed groups of up to 7 children at a time, led dance activities, helped with transitions, encouraged participation, and made sure every child felt safe, included, and excited to learn. Because of my dance background, I love bringing creativity and movement into babysitting. I’m also happy to help with children’s routines, basic homework, snacks, simple meals, cooking for the children, light cleaning, tidying up play areas, and helping keep things organized while parents are away. I also offer dog walking and pet care. I have a Thai Ridgeback at home, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs and understand the importance of being attentive, patient, and responsible with pets. I would love the opportunity to support your family and provide a safe, happy, and fun experience for your children and pets!

"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."
