Hi! I’m Avery! I’m 23 years old, and I’m from Dallas, TX. I have been living in New York City for the past three years, attending college at The New School for Contemporary Dance and Economics. I am new to UrbanSitter, but have been babysitting since I was 17 for family friends and using another babysitting app, Bambino. I would be happy to provide my recommendations from past sitting jobs off Bambino! I’m happy to cook, clean, or tutor as well!
Hi, I’m Evan! I’ve babysat for years and genuinely enjoy spending time with kids. Whether that’s helping with homework, playing outside, or just keeping them entertained. I’m happy to jump in with whatever your family needs, and I always try to make things smooth and stress-free. I have 2 large dogs at home and i’m comfortable with all pets. I also have background in CPR and lifeguard certification and played division 1 lacrosse for 5 years, so I have no issue being active!
Hi! My name is Clarisa and I am a reliable, caring, and experienced babysitter based in the NYC area. I currently work part time and am available for date nights, weekends, and occasional babysitting. I have over 10 years of experience working with children, especially school age kids. Most recently, I spent the past 3 years in a consistent role caring for children, which has strengthened my ability to create structure, build trust, and keep kids engaged in a positive way. I genuinely enjoy working with children and take pride in being more than just a babysitter. I aim to be a positive role model and someone kids feel safe, supported, and comfortable around. Whether it is helping with routines, homework, or just making sure they are having a fun and relaxed evening, I bring patience, attentiveness, and a calm, positive energy into every home. I am bilingual in English and Spanish and am very comfortable caring for multiple children at once. I am happy to help with light tidying related to the children and keeping things organized during my time there. I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident when leaving their children with someone, and I take that responsibility seriously. I am dependable, communicative, and respectful of each family’s needs and routines. I value the level of care I provide and look forward to connecting with families who are looking for someone trustworthy, experienced, and genuinely invested in their children’s well being.
Hi there! I'm Karina, a recent NYU graduate offering child and pet care! As the eldest in my family I've been working with kids since I was little and love to work with the PreK-12 age range. I also work as an after school lead tutor with the NYPL during the school year and can help that same age range with any homework subject. I can work with children individually or with as many as 5 kids at a time. I speak fluent Spanish and intermediate French. My goal with children is to inspire a love of learning and sense of wonder in the world around them and to do so through fostering curiosity, empathy, and a mutual sense of respect. Additionally, I'm often the first person my friends call up to petsit and am comfortable with cats and dogs, including those with medical needs.

"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
