Hello! My name is Anastazja, but you can call me Azja. I’ve been on UrbanSitter for about 11 years now, since I was 18, but have been babysitting for what feels like my whole life! I’m the eldest of three children, and definitely had a hand in raising my brother and sister. My grandmother had 13 siblings, so I’ve had a lot of cousins, nieces, and nephews that I have helped out with over the years. I’ve done both one time sitting jobs as well as long term nanny positions in my time on UrbanSitter, ages ranging from 3 weeks old to 13 years old! I have a lot of tricks up my sleeve when it comes to crying newborns at naptime, or mischievous kiddos trying to evade the bedtime routine. I’m a big sister, so I have a lifetime of experience using a firm but gentle approach to misbehavior and tantrums, while still making sure your kiddo has the best day ever! I was a camp counselor as a pre-teen and always have arts and craft activities to do! Reading and doing some arts and crafts activities is great for all ages and it’s still my favorite hobby. A little about me, I’m a San Franciscan, born and raised! J moved to NYC in 2024, and have been having a blast getting to know the Cuty ever since. I also am a part time art teacher for K-8 students, who enjoys crafting, thrifting, watching live music and broadway shows, and reading. I am up to date on my Covid vaccinations, as well as others. I’ve also been recertified in CPR as of March 2026. Cancellation Policy: If you cancel the booking day of, you must pay 50% of the booking fee.

Hi families! I’m a sitter with many years of childcare experience and a background in behavioral therapy. I earned my degree from the University of San Francisco and spent two years working in behavioral therapy, supporting children with diverse needs. Originally from New York and raised in Los Angeles, I spent the past six years in Oregon before recently moving to New Jersey. I’m excited to connect with local families and offer reliable, compassionate care. I love helping kids learn, play, and grow. I’m looking for part-time or occasional babysitting opportunities while I get settled in the area.

Booked by 85 families in Forest Hills, NY

Hello! My name is Evelyn. I’m 27 years old and a caring, reliable, and professional babysitter with over six years of experience working with children. I am currently pursuing my MBA at Baruch College in New York after earning my Bachelor’s degree in Sociology. My studies gave me a deeper understanding of child development, family dynamics, communication, and social behavior, which helps me better understand each child’s unique needs and build positive relationships with both children and parents. After attending college and working with children for three years, I proudly served four years in the U.S. Army, where I strengthened my leadership, responsibility, patience, and organizational skills. My military experience helped me become calm under pressure, dependable, and adaptable, qualities that I bring to every family I work with. Caring for children has always been my passion, and I love creating a safe, happy, and engaging environment through play, learning, and positive interaction. In my free time, I enjoy working out, reading, cooking, and staying organized. Spanish is my first language, and I’m happy to speak Spanish with children if parents would like to introduce or reinforce the language at home. I’m proud to have many wonderful reviews and repeat families. References are available upon request.

“Evelyn was very responsive and thoughtful. She did a great job communicating before and throughout the job. Would definitely book her again if we came back! ”

Booked by 180 families in Forest Hills, NY

Hi! I’m Schnell, a professional full-time nanny with extensive experience caring for infants and toddlers, including twins. I specialize in creating a structured, nurturing, and engaging environment while providing attentive, hands-on care. I love keeping children active and engaged throughout the day. I plan age-appropriate activities and outings such as trips to the park, playgrounds, museums, indoor play spaces, classes, and other child-friendly activities. At home, I enjoy reading books, doing arts and crafts, sensory play, music, and activities that encourage learning and development. I’m experienced with maintaining feeding and nap schedules, preparing meals and snacks, diaper changes, potty training, school drop-offs and pick-ups, getting children ready for activities, and helping them develop independence as they grow. I also handle children’s laundry, organize their toys and belongings, clean up after meals and activities, and help keep their spaces organized. I’m highly reliable, patient, organized, and comfortable caring for multiple children while balancing different schedules and needs. My goal is for children to feel safe, happy, engaged, and cared for while giving parents peace of mind. I’m currently seeking families who value attentive, high-quality care and a dependable caregiver. I’m also available for occasional evening and weekend babysitting.

"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."
