Clara $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Clara, and I’m 22 years old. I recently graduated from the University of Texas with a Journalism degree, and am relocating to NYC in September. I have several years of experience caring for infants, toddlers, and school-aged children, including three years as a nanny for a family with three children and long-term occasional care for another child from age 1 to 9. I’m reliable, patient, and happy to help with meal prep, light housekeeping, errands, and pet care. I’m excited to connect with a wonderful family and can provide excellent references upon request!

Jullia $30 per hour for 1 child

I’m Jullia, 23 years old. I provide intentional, high-level childcare focused on structure, emotional intelligence, and developmental support. I am calm, discreet, and exceptionally reliable. I create organized routines that promote independence, confidence, and security while maintaining a warm and nurturing presence. I’m experienced managing full daily schedules, school coordination, enrichment activities, and maintaining a peaceful, well-structured home environment. I value professionalism, clear communication, and mutual respect. My goal is to become a trusted extension of your parenting style, offering consistent, thoughtful care tailored to your family’s standards. I’m also a strong driver, pet friendly, fully vaccinated and I have +5000 hours experience with kids! My main skills include preparing meals (my favorite hobby is cooking, and I would be very happy to cook for the child and for the family if needed), changing diapers, preparing bottles, and entertaining children without the use of screens. I am also passionate about mathematics and sciences and would be happy to teach or help children who need tutoring. I am fluent in English and Portuguese and have an intermediate level of Spanish. If your family would like, I can speak with the children in any of these languages and help them learn as well.

Sacha $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm a 22-year-old college student from Queens, New York with a passion for working with kids. I naturally connect with children and love creating fun, engaging experiences for them! I originally studied Early Childhood Education to become a first-grade teacher, but I'm now exploring a career in pediatric nursing because I truly enjoy caring for children. I have hands-on experience caring for my younger siblings who are now middle schoolers. Dealing with them has taught me patience, responsibility, and creativity in keeping kids entertained and happy. What I Offer: 1. Fun and engaging activities 2. Homework help 3. Safe and responsible care 4. A warm, bubbly personality that kids love 5. Experience with both cats and dogs (super pet-friendly!) I would love the opportunity to babysit for your family. Feel free to reach out! I can't wait to meet you and your little ones!

"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."
