Hi – my name is Sabrina and I am 19 & currently work as a barista in Riverdale. I offer child care, pet care, and household services. I enjoy being a babysitter, I have been watching kids between the ages of 5-12 since I was 16 years old. Also, have previous experience as a summer camp counselor. I enjoy engaging kids in activities they love whether that’s coloring, video games, sports, or creative projects, and I can also help with homework, and after school events. I can also assist with pet care. I’m comfortable with all kinds of animals, including rodents and reptiles. I can walk, feed, play with, and bathe pets as needed. I can help with cooking,cleaning, laundry, organizing, and basic chores. I’m reliable, patient, and enjoy helping families with whatever they need.
Hi! My name is Sierra, and I am a graduate of NYU's Tisch School of The Arts Drama program (2024) with experience with caring for children from 1-10 years of age in the past. I’m now a professional actor and filmmaker on top of providing childcare. I have previously worked as a tour guide for my hometown's history museum which worked primarily with school groups. Thus, I have a lot of experience with large groups of elementary aged children. I have also performed children's theatre in the past. I am proud to be from a teaching family—with family members who work in the Department of Education in CA, public school teaching, and are professors at top universities around the world. Similarly, I have provided ACT and SAT English instruction in the past for high school students and scored a 34 in English and a 35 in Reading on the ACT. Including my theatre experience, I also speak Mandarin (intermediate). My hobbies include film photography, cooking (I was an apprentice at a two-star Michelin restaurant), hiking, exploring historical sites, and studying philosophy. I believe in the importance in helping nurture a child's empathy and their skills to later be a fully functioning adult. I believe that it is more important than ever for children to be able to express themselves and have someone to listen to them. I would be happy and honored to be someone who can help your child feel heard. I hope that in turn it would inspire them to be someone who reaches out to others as well.
Hi families! My name is Fatoumatu, and I truly enjoy working with children of all ages. I have years of experience caring for infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids through babysitting, nannying, and volunteering, and also taking care of my own siblings and neighbours kids. I’m known for being patient, attentive, and creativity. I love keeping kids engaged with fun activities, reading, and arts & crafts. Safety and communication are very important to me. I am comfortable with routines like meal prep, and bedtime, and I always make sure children feel safe and cared for in my presence. Parents often describe me as reliable, responsible, and easy to communicate with. Whether it’s creating fun games, or keeping little ones on their daily routine, I aim to bring a calm, positive, and dependable presence into your home. I’d be honored to support your family and provide loving, trustworthy care for your children.
Hi families! I am a mom of 2. One is a toddler and the other is 18 So I am patience-tested & approved! I spent several years as a stay-at-home-mom while volunteering at kid's school and occasionally substitute teaching. I previously worked as a "Teacher of Speech & Hearing Handicapped" in NYC public schools and an Early Intervention therapist and a special education preschool teacher in Florida. I have a Bachelor's degree in Speech Pathology and a Master's degree in Applied Research. I got sidetracked reentering the workforce with a breast cancer diagnosis but now I am cancer free and ready to work! I've met other urban sitter caregivers at my local library and I think this would be a great fit! I am a voracious reader and also enjoy finding new children's books with the perfect amount of text and simple illustration - However I love kids reading anything appropriate. I also love exploring the city and finding interesting events to attend always on the lookout for family friendly events. I am very hand's-on and enjoy playing with my own son whether it's building train tracks or playing hide & seek. As my infant days are over- rocking a baby to sleep would be a treat yet a fussy baby I can handle! So please go out, recharge and rest assured your precious child is in good hands.
Hi! My name is Rac-Khyla, I’m a 22 year old pharmacy technician. On my off days I’d babysit my younger cousins that used to live with, a 1 year old and a 3 year old. I’m a reliable and caring babysitter who loves working with kids. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on creating a safe, fun, and positive environment. I enjoy helping with homework, playtime, even bedtime routines, and I treat every child as if they were my own siblings or cousins. Parents can count on me to be responsible, respectful, and trustworthy.

"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."
