Booked by 3 families in New York, NY

Hi there! I'm Elizabeth. Im 22 years old and live in South Slope :). I recently graduated from John Jay College Of Criminal Justice. I have been caring for children for 8 years as a babysitter and as the oldest of 2 siblings. I have a lot of experience working with toddlers and grade school children. I’ve spent half my life watching over my younger twin sisters who are deaf. They’ve taught me ASL along the way, so that’s a plus! I truly love working with young kids, and I approach each child as an individual who I get to help grow and teach. When I'm not in school or babysitting, I enjoy biking and watching shows. I'd love the opportunity to get to know your family and would be happy to provide references if requested.

“I highly recommend Elizabeth as a babysitter. With her warm demeanor and responsible attitude, she creates a nurturing environment for children of all ages. Parents can trust her to prioritize safety while engaging kids in fun and educational activities. She is reliable, punctual, and has a natural affinity for connecting with children. Rest assured, Elizabeth will provide excellent care for your little ones, giving you peace of mind while you're away.”

I am a compassionate and dedicated caregiver with over a decade of experience in supportive leadership roles within residential services. My extensive background includes overseeing operations, supervising teams, and ensuring the delivery of high-quality care. I have honed exceptional skills in crisis intervention and training development, which allow me to create a safe, nurturing, and educational environment for children. Additionally, I have experience working with children on the autism spectrum, understanding their unique needs and fostering their development through tailored approaches. In my role as a caregiver, I also excel in household management, as I am skilled in cooking and cleaning, ensuring a comfortable and organized space for the children I care for. Being bilingual in English and Spanish enables me to effectively communicate with families from diverse backgrounds, fostering strong and positive relationships. I am genuinely enthusiastic about the opportunity to take on a babysitting or nanny position, where I can leverage my extensive experience to create and maintain nurturing environments that support children's growth and development. My commitment to providing attentive and compassionate care will ensure a positive and enriching experience for both the children and their families.

$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 8 families in New York, NY

I’m Mariana. I’m 27 and I was an Au Pair for almost 3 years in the US, where I took care of kids from 3 to 11 years old and them I worked as a full time nanny for a family and took care of a 2 year old. I’m currently getting my master’s degree. Before I became an Au Pair, I was an English teacher in Colombia, where I taught kids, teens and adults. I speak Spanish, English and basic French. I’m very clean and I encourage the kids to always help me clean up their toys and to be as independent as possible. I’ve also worked as a petsitter, and I absolutely love animals. I grew up in a farm with lots of dogs, bunnies, chickens and parrots so I have a lot of practice. I also have experience caring for seniors since I grew up with my grandparents, so I think I’m not just a nanny, but I’m a caregiver of all sorts.

“Wonderful! Boys really liked her and she was tidy, responsive and flexible with hours. ”

"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."
