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.

Booked by 1 family in Ridgewood, NY

Hello! My name is Christine . I have over 15 years of experience providing compassionate, reliable care to individuals ranging from newborns to seniors. My passion for helping others started early, and over the years I’ve worked with families, children, and elderly clients in both home and clinical settings. I’m a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), Patient Care Technician (PCT), and Licensed Medical Assistant (MA), and I’m also CPR/First Aid certified. My background in healthcare has given me strong skills in patient safety, organization, and effective communication. I’m confident in handling medical needs, assisting with daily routines, and creating a nurturing environment where everyone feels supported and valued. When caring for children, I love engaging them in creative and educational activities that promote growth, independence, and fun. For seniors, I provide kind companionship, assistance with personal care, and encouragement to stay active and positive. I’m dependable, patient, and dedicated to treating every family I work with as if they were my own. My schedule is open and flexible, and I’m happy to accommodate your family’s specific needs. I am a member of the Carol Gardens nanny association and completed the necessary trainings. My experience and knowledge stems from the BoCoCa and surrounding neighborhoods. I would love the opportunity to meet your family and provide exceptional care you can truly count on! References from previous families are available upon request.

Bella $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I'm Bella. I've spent close to a decade with private families — first in Southern California where I grew up, and now in New York. I'm calm under pressure, comfortable with infants through tweens (including kids with special needs and twins), and I think the best nannies are the ones whose presence makes the apartment feel a degree quieter, not louder. I'm pursuing a master's in Computer Science at Pace University, live in Tribeca, and can be at most downtown apartments in fifteen minutes. References available from every family I've worked with. Always happy to start with a paid trial day. Rates run $30–$40/hr depending on the day and number of kids.

"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."
