Hi- My name is Delisa and I’m offering child care, pet care, and household services. I love babysitting and I have been babysitting since I was 18.

Kathleen $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Kathleen, and I am a sophomore at Hunter College. Throughout high school, I was a 3-sport varsity athlete (cross country, basketball, and golf) and I played several different sports growing up! My main hobby is running, and I am looking to qualify for the Boston Marathon! I love to entertain and make sure the kids are having fun! I am a very friendly person and although I love to have fun, I always want to make sure we are staying safe. I am very familiar with the kitchen and cooking a good meal. I have two sisters, one older and one younger so I am very familiar with the conflict that can arise. I also have a dog and love all pets.

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.

Shellie $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Shellie, a caring, energetic, and flexible caregiver with 10+ years of experience working with kids from being a full-time nanny, summer camp counselor, and occasional babysitting. I have most of my experience working with toddlers and young children ages (2-10 years old), and kids with ADHD, selective mutism, and anxiety disorders. I’m currently a graduate student studying child psychology. I’m currently a nanny to a family with children ages 3 and 10 years old. This summer, I’m looking for a family to work with while school is out, and if you’re interested into the school year. I started babysitting when I was 16 years old and haven’t stopped working with kids as I love it so much! When I was an undergrad student I worked as a full-time nanny for 3+ years providing weekday care for a family with children ages 4, 6, and 8. In addition to supporting their daily school schedules and extracurriculars, I planned fun activities at home like various arts and crafts projects, scavenger hunts, and dance parties to outings to the aquarium, the beach and museums. I also completed household tasks like meal prep, grocery shopping, laundry, tidying up and general housekeeping. More about me: Born and raised in Miami Beach, FL, I love spending time outdoors playing soccer, cooking healthy homemade meals, and indulging in painting, baking, playing guitar, and reading.

Blair $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Blair and I am a student at Pace University looking for a part time babysitting position. I have been babysitting since I was 15 for ages 11 and under. I have done numerous jobs from overnights, school drop off, date nights, and after school care. I also help with household duties to make life easier on your family! I also love pets and will take care of your fur babies as well! During my time with your children I try to be as active and present as possible. This looks like going to the park, doing arts and crafts, baking, helping with homework, and limiting screen time for your child and myself.

"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."
