Clarisa $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Clarisa and I am a reliable, caring, and experienced babysitter based in the NYC area. I currently work part time and am available for date nights, weekends, and occasional babysitting. I have over 10 years of experience working with children, especially school age kids. Most recently, I spent the past 3 years in a consistent role caring for children, which has strengthened my ability to create structure, build trust, and keep kids engaged in a positive way. I genuinely enjoy working with children and take pride in being more than just a babysitter. I aim to be a positive role model and someone kids feel safe, supported, and comfortable around. Whether it is helping with routines, homework, or just making sure they are having a fun and relaxed evening, I bring patience, attentiveness, and a calm, positive energy into every home. I am bilingual in English and Spanish and am very comfortable caring for multiple children at once. I am happy to help with light tidying related to the children and keeping things organized during my time there. I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident when leaving their children with someone, and I take that responsibility seriously. I am dependable, communicative, and respectful of each family’s needs and routines. I value the level of care I provide and look forward to connecting with families who are looking for someone trustworthy, experienced, and genuinely invested in their children’s well being.

"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."
