Victoria $21 per hour for 1 child
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."
