$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Long Island City, NY

Hi - I'm Lila and I'm a born and raised New Yorker spending my summer in the city before starting at University of St. Andrews in Scotland in September. I'm offering part-time child and/or pet care, along with light housekeeping. I love kids and have previous experience babysitting ages 3-9 years old. I grew up attending a local private school, and I'm experienced with the after-school pick-up and lesson commute! I like doing creative activities with kids - playing, reading, dancing, and arts & crafts. (When working as a docent in a museum I worked with kids and created a museum scavenger hunt!). I'm also a cat lover and owner with significant feline experience. I can also work with families with dogs.

“Lila is very knowledgeable about cat and we have great first impression about her.”

Pearl $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Pearl, new to UrbanSitter I’ve been babysitting since I was 13 and genuinely love spending time with kids! I’m a patient, caring, and energetic caregiver who enjoys making kids feel comfortable while keeping them engaged and having fun. I love baking and cooking with kids, helping with homework, doing arts and crafts, and simply spending quality time together. I’m especially great with elementary-aged children and love helping them learn (elementary math is my specialty—algebra is another story 😂). I also practice yoga and enjoy staying active, so I’d love to keep athletic kids moving, whether that’s stretching before or after practice, going outside, or doing fun activities together. I’m responsible, attentive, and always want kids to feel safe, happy, and cared for.

Mazida $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Long Island City, NY

Hi! I’m Mazida, a Psychology student at Baruch College with an associate degree in Early Childhood Education. I have over three years of experience caring for children through daycare and as a Behavioral Technician (ABA), working with infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. I believe every child deserves to feel safe, heard, and encouraged. Whether we’re reading books, doing arts and crafts, playing outside, or simply following a familiar routine, I strive to create a calm, fun, and nurturing environment where children can thrive. I’m dependable, patient, and attentive to each child’s individual needs. I’m happy to help with meals, bedtime routines, homework, diaper changes, potty training, and light tidying related to the children. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your kids, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’d love the opportunity to support your family and become someone your children look forward to seeing!

"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."
