Hi Parents! My name is Chyntia, pronounced Cynthia! I was a nanny for 3 years and a preschool teacher but now I currently work for a lemon law firm…drastic change I know! I have taken care of children from the ages of 3 months to 8years old. I am comfortable with bottle feedings and helping out with nighttime routines, while the parents go out and have a nice date night! I can also help pick up around the house while the little ones are sleeping. I love animals! I have a chihuahua terrier and treat him like my baby. He is definitely spoiled! I have experience with feeding, walking and giving them love ! I am comfortable with all size dogs and cats! Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have ! Hope to hear from you soon.
Hello families! During the day, I am a Substitute Teacher for K-12 charter schools. In addition, I am a Tutor specializing in ESL, ELA and Reading Comprehention. I have a Master's degree in Teaching English as a Foreign Language and I've served in the Peace Corps as a TEFL Teacher and Trainer (Ukraine, 2[removed], and Uzbekistan 2002-2005. ) I am a very caring, fun and creative caregiver who thinks outside of the box! I like to create fun activities to keep the kids busy and engaged. Not a big fan of Tech for play or entertainment! I prefer Reading books/Storytelling, Arts & Crafts, Games, Outdoor Play, Music & Movement for the little ones (play a little bit of guitar), and Cooking. Lastly, I like helping out with pets and have experience with Seniors as well!
“Vickie has been our go-to person for house/dog sitting for approximately 15 years. She is responsible, reliable, clean, and trustworthy with kids and fur-babies. She has a vast experience with kids, typical and special needs, which is how we first came to know Vickie. Taking care of our dog was yet another positive and rewarding experience. We know call Vickie our good friend. We highly recommend her for Urban Sitters.”
I’m so happy to be a nanny! I’ve had the pleasure of caring for infants, toddlers, and older kids. My job involved supporting families with their children’s needs, such as feeding, helping them learn, and making sure they had fun with walks to the park or library, or even driving them to and from school. I speak both English and Spanish, and I’m CPR certified with a clean driving record. I’m also quite flexible with my schedule and can work some weekends.
“Ana was great and flexible with my changing schedule. She was kind and communicative and went above and beyond to help out ”
I’ve been caring for children, homes, and families for over 15 years. I started babysitting at age 15 and have continued working with kids of all ages ever since. Now at 30, I bring a strong sense of responsibility, experience, and maturity to every family I work with. I graduated from Brown University, where I was a Division I lacrosse player and captain of the team my senior year. That experience shaped my leadership, discipline, and ability to stay calm and organized in fast-paced environments—qualities I bring into caregiving every day. Professionally, I’m a business owner, which speaks to my reliability, time management, and strong communication skills. Families trust me not only with their children, but also with their homes. I’ve frequently been hired to house sit while families travel, managing everything from daily upkeep to pet care and ensuring everything runs smoothly while they’re away. I have extensive experience tutoring middle and high school students, so I’m very comfortable helping with homework, keeping kids engaged, and supporting their academic growth. I also regularly care for my nephew, which has deepened my ability to connect with children in a patient, attentive, and genuinely caring way. Overall, I’m known for being dependable, trustworthy, and easy to work with. I bring a positive, grounded energy and take pride in creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment for both kids and families.
“Rosie was an excellent babysitter, I knew my baby was safe and so happy under her care and my dog absolutely loved her!”

"UrbanSitter is my go-to for quality sitters! I can book weeks ahead of time or easily find a same-day sitter when in a bind. I even hired a part-time nanny during a daycare transition. Customer service is helpful and babysitters respond in a timely manner."
