Hi families, parents, and caregivers, I am offering occasional and part-time babysitting, pet sitting, and/or household services. I’m a mental health counselor with a focus on supporting children and adolescents (ages 5+). I hold a certification in delivering evidence-based mental health practices for children in NYS and often use play activities in my work. Before entering the counseling field, I worked in after-school programs, where I created and delivered social-emotional learning lesson plans for Pre-K3 classrooms. I place strong emphasis on safety, trust, and building meaningful rapport with youth in both formal and informal settings. When spending time with kids, I bring a warm, curious, and playful spirit to help build connection while maintaining safety and boundaries. I strive to be proactive, attentive, communicative, and organized so I can best support you, your loved ones, and your home. I look forward to connecting!
Hello. I am a home organizer and love creating systems that work for your life. I work in corporate, the majority of my friends are childless and I miss spending time with children after growing up surrounded by them. That's why I am on Urban Sitter. I also speak Spanish and can incorporate that into childcare. Regarding experience, most of it involves children aged 9 - 12, but in the past two years, I have looked after newborns to 2yrs old. I'm a dog lover and dog sitter. I used to volunteer at a no-kill shelter and have experience with dogs and some behavioral issues.
Soy una persona activa y muy responsable en todas las actividades dadas a mi cargo. Mi experiencia se basa en mis capacidades y mi temperamento para cumplir y dar resultados deacuerdo a mi trabajo
Hi! My name is Eliana and I am a lover of children and pets. I work from home full time and looking to help out where needed whether it’s taking care of your dog while you’re away or picking up your kiddo from school!
“Eliana was very patient and sweet with Soka, she took great care of her and she also took great care of my house. Great communication and very respectful. ”
I'm Camila, new to NYC and looking for babysitter opportunities! I'm a caring and experienced babysitter with a strong background working with children of all ages. I've been babysitting for years, including supporting a child with special needs, and I'm comfortable adapting to different needs and personalities. I've also worked as a Spanish teacher for kids, which I love incorporating into fun, engaging activities, and have experience in a daycare setting managing multiple children at once. I love working with children even in my professional career, where I’ve had the opportunity to work closely with child actors, producing, directing, and helping them train their performance. This has strengthened my ability to guide kids with patience, creativity, and structure. I can care for dogs/cats and light housekeeping and organizational tasks and errands. I'm patient, reliable, and truly enjoy creating a safe, positive environment where kids can learn and have fun.

"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."
Laura F., mom of two
