Mary Ellis $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a 23-year-old recent NYU grad school graduate, originally from Alabama and a proud SMU alum. I just completed my Masters in Accounting and am pursuing a CPA license. I’m outgoing, friendly, and dependable, with a strong work ethic and a natural ability to connect with kids. I’ve been babysitting throughout my life and have experience with children of all ages! I love staying active and engaged— whether that’s going on walks, playing tennis, or doing Pilates—and I bring that same energy when caring for kids. I’m patient, organized, attentive, and always focused on creating a fun and safe environment. I’m currently based in NYC and have a full-time role starting in October, so I’m looking to support a family in the meantime. I’m flexible with scheduling and happy to help both in and outside the home.

Booked by 1 family in East Elmhurst, NY

Hello I am a loving and dependable babysitter who truly enjoys spending time with kids. I speak English, French, Spanish, and Fulani, which helps me connect easily with families from different backgrounds. As the older sibling to four younger brothers and sisters, I’ve helped with homework, meals, daily routines, and house chores. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on making children feel safe, supported, and happy.

Lauren $25 per hour for 1 child

I have 4 years of experience. I can help with Light Housekeeping and Errands. I have both a first aid and CPR certification. (I am certified in both infant and adult CPR.) I am good with pets, and can assist with those as well (if needed.) A little about me- I am 18 years old, and currently live in Chelsea. I have another part-time nanny job that leaves the hours of 8:30-5:00 fully open for me on school days. I am the oldest child, and have one younger brother who is 16. I have been working as a front desk receptionist at a hair salon since June 2023. I love getting to meet new people, and listen to their stories and experiences! In my free time, I love to read, go for walks with my dogs, bake, hang out with friends, visit with my grandparents, and also organize spaces! I am often referenced as the 'grandma' of my friend group as I like to go to bed early, wake up early, and would rather stay in and read a good book than go out. I have been babysitting/nannying for almost 8 years now, and really enjoy it.

"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."
