Wyatt $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I'm Wyatt, I'm 23, and I recently graduated Columbia University. I am offering child care, senior care, and household services. I love being a babysitter and have lots of experience with kids, both as a babysitter (since middle school) and as a summer camp counselor (throughout high school and college). I have minimal experience with toddlers and no experience with infants, but would love the opportunity to gain experience with these ages. As a babysitter, my responsibilities have included driving to/from school, tutoring, and even drum lessons! I love doing magic tricks, playing games, and doing arts and crafts! I also can work as a household assistant and cook, clean, and run errands. I have been a caretaker for my own grandparents and am happy to cook, drive to appointments, or do other tasks!

$30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 7 families in Richmond Hill, NY

Hello parent, I think I will be a great choice to take care of your child, I have been babysitting starting at a young age and have babysat for groups as big as 10 children. I am more available nights and flexible schedules.

“We hired Veronica for a summer to help our 2 y/o transition from being with mom full time to starting 2K in the fall. We’re only sad we didn’t find her sooner! We love Veronica’s patient and calm energy, she was so nurturing and attentive to our child’s development, and she was proactively helpful in other areas of our child’s care without needing to be asked. She was perfectly punctual, responsive and communicative, and accommodating of our hectic schedule. Our kid loves her so much and asks about her all the time now that the summer routine is ended. We always look forward to having Veronica back to babysit regularly!”

Samantha 2 reviews
$22 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Sam! I’m 25 years old and have over six years experience in babysitting. I am the oldest of 3 girls and always looked after them growing up. I’ve also worked as an assistant summer camp counselor with second graders. I enjoy working with children and providing a safe and fun environment for them. I love crafts, playing games and inventing stories to keep children engaged without relying on screens.

“I am writing this to recommend Samantha Sanchez as a babysitter. She has been an incredible help to my family and a truly wonderful caregiver to my son who is 2 years old. From the beginning, Samantha demonstrated a natural connection with kids. She is responsible, punctual, and always brings a positive, cheerful energy into our home. My son looked forward to spending time with her and felt safe and happy in her care. She is dependable and proactive, whether it’s organizing fun and educational activities, helping with meals, or keeping things tidy. I’ve never had any concerns about her work ethic or reliability. I would highly recommend Samantha for any babysitting or childcare position. I’m confident that she will provide the same level of excellent care for your family as she did for mine. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions at [email protected] or 347-301-9760”

Alejandra 2 reviews
$23 per hour for 1 child

Hello, My name is Alejandra. I am a costume designer and a naturalized American citizen, originally from Colombia. I moved to New York eight years ago and have been involved in the art world since I was a teenager. I love good music, visiting museums, hiking, going for walks, and appreciating the simple joys of life. Babysitting was my first job when I moved to the U.S., and to this day, it remains my favorite job. I truly enjoy the company of kids—their humor, creativity, and sense of freedom. I have about two years of professional experience, not including a lifetime of caring for my little cousins. I would love to have a child of my own one day, and I will care for your kids the way I would want my future babysitter to care for mine. Sincerely, Alejandra

“I have known Alejandra for almost 17 years and she has covered several times for her mom babysitting my children who adored her and she has also worked for my business for several years. I highly recommend her as a babysitter!”

Gláucia 6 reviews
$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Richmond Hill, NY

I have experience caring for children from early infancy through early adolescence. I worked as an Au Pair in the United States, where I was responsible for the children’s daily routine, including feeding, transportation, recreational activities, academic support, and general care. In addition, I volunteer at a children’s hospital, where I carry out playful and educational activities with children of different ages. My background in Pharmacy also provides me with knowledge in health and first aid, contributing to safe and responsible childcare.

“We scheduled Gláucia last minute and she was very quick to get in touch and coordinate. We were able to show her our daughter’s bedtime routine and she did a great job getting her to sleep! We had an awesome night out and will book her again soon.”

"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."
