I’ve helped care for my three nieces my whole life and have babysat for multiple families, both long- and short-term, since I was 14. I’m patient, loving, and compassionate, and I truly enjoy kids’ company. I’m a strong leader who’s fun while keeping your child safe, happy, and supported.
Hi there! My name is Katrina. I’ve been the go-to babysitter for my family and friends for many years, caring for children from 5 months to 9 years old since I was a teen. Working with kids has always come naturally to me, and I bring patience, structure, and a genuine love for what I do. I’m currently a Paraprofessional with the NYC Board of Education, in the Williamsburg neighborhood, where I work one-on-one with children in special education, including students with ADHD, autism, developmental delays, and speech disorders. I’ve supported preschool, kindergarten, first grade, second grade and Pre-K learners in a public school in Williamsburg. This gives me experience in behavior support, sensory needs, communication strategies, and helping children feel safe and understood. With me, your child will enjoy fun, engaging, and purposeful activities such as: • singing songs and movement games • days of the week & months routines • coloring, crafts, and hands-on activities • counting games and early learning skills • music, dancing, and story time • simple baking or kitchen fun (I’m a baking & pastry graduate!) My approach blends fun with structure, keeping children entertained while following their routines and respecting their individual needs. ✨ Availability: pickup, Summer days, occasional weekends, and DOE days off ✨ I’d love the opportunity to support your family and create a warm, safe, and joyful experience for your child.
“Katrina has been an amazing sitter to our two kids (and dog!) for many years. She's so sweet, very reliable, engaging and fun with the kids. She's thoughtful and comes up with fun activities, the kids love her and we consider her family. She is bright, warm and tidy.”
Dog owner of 10 years! Passionate about making sure dogs feel loved and cared for while their owners are away! I treat every dog with love and as if they’re a part of my family. Somethi g of a neph-pup. Also have some experience with childcare through familial experience and 2 years in elderly care!

"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
