I’m seeking a part time babysitting job for the weekdays In the past 7+ years, I've taken care of children between the ages of 3yrs - 13yrs as an after school babysitter and infants occasionally for date night. I’ve also tutored elementary aged children in an afterschool program do I’d be happy to help with any homework. I mostly like to spend time with children playing fun activities such as playing board games, solving puzzles, building legos, coloring, drawing, painting, or creating arts and crafts. Besides babysitting I’m also open to helping around the house with light cleaning, meal prep, laundry and folding.

Hello NYC Families! I’m a graduating nursing student currently looking for work as I prepare for my licensing exam. I’ve been a nanny and babysitter in Brooklyn for the past five years, and have over ten years of experience working in childcare and youth services. Before diving into nursing, I earned my first bachelor’s degree in sociology and dance, which gives me a unique, interdisciplinary perspective that I love to bring into my work. I’m passionate about education, dance, and play, and I’m excited about the possibility of connecting with your family! A little about me: - I grew up in Santa Barbara, CA, where I spent most of my free time dancing or exploring the outdoors. - I’ve worked with kids of all ages, from 18 months to 18 years, including those with a wide range of abilities and behaviors. - I’ve created and led hands-on learning programs in everything from outdoor education and arts & crafts to cooking and dance/movement. - I spent three summers touring with Circus Smirkus, where I supported a troupe of 30 teen performers—an experience that taught me a lot about teamwork, responsibility, and the joy of creative expression. - I have a valid driver’s license and have driven to all my babysitting jobs around the city. - I’m CPR/BLS certified and trained in first aid, so your child’s safety is always my top priority. When I’m not working, you’ll find me dancing, biking, rock climbing, enjoying ocean sports, or making handmade cards for friends and family. I’d love to share my passions and experiences with your family, and I’d be honored to help out in any way I can. I truly believe in building open, honest relationships with families and kids, and I’m always eager to learn about each child’s unique personality and interests. Looking forward to connecting!

My name is Alice and I'm 31 years old living in Middle Village, Queens. I have a profile also on care.com which has more reviews and have been using for years and new to this site if it helps sending it :) I first started caring for kids in a day-care at a gym 10 years ago then started on care.com and worked with many, many wonderful families since then and have found my passion working with children. I worked with kids from 2.5 to 12 years old to kids with autism/sensory issues, shy kids, chatty kids, kids with anxiety, so I'm super experienced and can relate to kids and understand how every chid has their own special personalities and needs. I drive my own car and my duties would always include picking kids up from school, taking them home, making sure they are comfortable unload backpacks if needed, give snacks/lunch if needed and let them have a little break, any after school activities in the same neighborhood, summer camps drop off/pick up, going to park, have done remote learning, sick days, making sure they do choirs or encourage doing things together and always teaching kids positive things, sometimes parents would just love us staying home and going on walks around a couple blocks, all depends on the kids and parents needs :) Always willing to work with what the family needs and usually make ourselves a schedule to go by and if they like alone time/ personality needs and traits and I love becoming a person they can always talk with and become someone they can talk too and go for any advice and comfort. Always communicating if any issues occur and look for that in parents as well. Communication, respect, caring families is always whats most important to me. My number one priority for the children I’m caring for is making sure they are safe, happy, comfortable and in the best care possible.

“Alice worked with us for about 10 months, helping us out with our then 3 year old daughter. She helped us with pick up, taking our daughter to after school activities, and occasionally giving her shower. Alice was friendly and flexible with our schedule, and our daughter did enjoy the time they spent together.”

"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."
