Hi! My name is Giada, and I’m currently a sophomore at CUNY Hunter College studying Social Work. I’m planning to apply to the BSW program, and I’m especially interested in working in mental health and helping others. I’ve always loved babysitting, mostly because I had a babysitter growing up who I really loved and looked forward to spending time with. I’ve been working with children since I was around 14 and have experience caring for toddlers and older children. I’ve also volunteered and worked at a summer camp for young children, which gave me even more experience spending time with and caring for kids. I would describe myself as patient, responsible, and caring. I love being outside with kids when the weather is nice and getting involved in whatever activities they enjoy. I’m also comfortable helping with homework, cooking, and keeping children entertained. Outside of school and babysitting, I enjoy listening to music, reading, and spending time with my friends.
Hi! My name is Liam. I'm a 23-year-old student at Columbia University, seeking to offer babysitting services to families. I’m a born and raised New Yorker and love exploring the city in my free time! I love babysitting, and thoroughly enjoy and am very comfortable interacting with children. I can assist in meal-preparation, transportation to and from school and various activities, assistance with homework, and general activities, as well as performing household chores or running errands. I am available early mornings and evenings, and am open to working late hours with room to be flexible. I’m very comfortable with pets! I love dogs and am comfortable working in an animal-friendly environment. I look forward to working with your family!
Hi! My name is Lourdes, I am looking for one time + part time babysitting gigs for now - onward. Happy to discuss my available hours! Since September 2021, I have experience with kids from 3 months - 14 years old. I also have extensive experience with pet + house sitting (cats and dogs). For my longest term gig, from December 2021 - February 2023 I was a part-time nanny for a family in the West Village with 3 children (ages 6-12) and supported with tasks such as school pick up, meal prep, bedtime, packing, homework assistance, emotional support, ubering around, light housekeeping, and traveled with them internationally. Whilst working with them, I also was able to develop relationships with other families within their school community, a total of 6 other families who would be able to, and to this day, ask for help when needed. I've been described as fun, creative, crafty, and very quick on my feet, I'm a great multitasker. I've also been described as the family "vibe checker", I'm always looking to brighten up the energy in a room. I am currently in school full time to finish my BA in Film Production and Classical / Latin Studies. I speak fluent Italian and Spanish, and am developing a career as an actor and film producer. I am a big advocate for the arts and would love to share my love for reading / painting / singing with whomever I'm babysitting. Additionally, I am an entrepreneur running my social media marketing agency during the day. I’m also the oldest of four sisters, if that’s any reassurance, and have also done school drop off, pick up, and meal prep with them. I love cooking and am also comfortable tidying up with dishes and meal prep. My Linkedin is the same as my name here. Happy to provide references. Hope to meet you soon!
“Lourdes is everything you could want in a sitter. She’s communicative, flexible and fun. She started babysitting for me when I was a new mom and nervous about leaving my baby with someone who wasn’t a family member and now it’s hard for me to leave my kids with anyone else! We love Lourdes! Highly recommend!”

Hello! My name is Victoria, and I'm 26 years old. I'm from Argentina, but currently living in New York. In Argentina, I have worked as a babysitter from 18 years old and as a teacher from 21 years old, so I have a great experience with kids and teenagers. I always try to talk with the kids, get to know them better and have fun with them. My responsibilities have included: drive, cook, pick-up and drop kids off from/to school or activities, help with bedtime routine, etc.

"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."
