Natalie $25 per hour for 1 child
Hello! My name is Natalie. I most recently completed a public policy fellowship with the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute in Washington, DC. While I discern my next career steps, I’m looking to spend some time doing something that energizes me— working with children and youth! I have served as a private babysitter for toddlers and young children, a student teacher for two first grade classrooms, and a summer camp counselor. Finally, as a family engagement specialist at a local childcare financial assistance resource and referral agency, I worked with parents and children to improve positive child development. I love doing arts and crafts, helping with homework, and overall learning from kids as they lead with their childlike curiosity. Looking forward to connecting!
Tania $30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in South Hackensack, NJ
Hello! I’m bilingual (English/ Spanish) and nannied for 3 years, throughout college. I have also babysat children of all ages for >10 years. I love arts and crafts, cooking, and being outdoors. I can help with light household chores if needed. When I’m not babysitting, you can find me at my day job, volunteering at my community garden, or hanging out with friends. My rates are negotiable and depend on the level of care / responsibility needed. I’m happy to answer any questions you may have!
Ava $21 per hour for 1 child
Hi— my name is Ava and I’m a current graduate student studying at Columbia University. I am offering childcare and household services. I love kids and have been working with them for the past 4 years. I have 3 years experience of teaching toddlers survival swim, and 2 years of teaching and camp counselor experience with elementary aged children. I have also been a babysitter for my own younger siblings, one of which has a disability. All of this experience has given me patience needed to work well with kids :) I enjoy doing outdoor activities, arts and crafts, and reading to kids. I can also clean and run errands. The one thing I cannot do is drive, but hopefully that is not too much of a problem in the city.

Sarah $32 per hour for 1 child
Hi! My name is Sarah, and I'm originally from just outside of Boston. I graduated from Wake Forest University in 2023 and am starting my Master's in School Counseling at Columbia University this fall to become a licensed elementary school counselor. I've been living in the Morningside Heights area for the past year and a half. I'm looking for a babysitting position on Thursdays and Fridays, with flexibility for additional hours on other days as long as they don't conflict with my class schedule. I've been babysitting, working with, and volunteering with children since I was a teenager. I have experience caring for children of different ages, and I really enjoy getting to know each child's personality and interests. I'd love to find a family I can work with consistently throughout the school year!

"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."
