Hello! My name is Daniela and I am a 22-year-old ballerina and model in New York City. I absolutely adore spending time with children and have a history of working with kids as an assistant ballet teacher for children aged 4-10. My responsibilities include transport, childcare, and light household tasks as needed. Aside from my career as a freelance ballerina and model, I am studying Communications online through Arizona State University. I have a great passion for literature and film, and also love to practice yoga and pilates in my free time. My mother is from Brazil, so I am bilingual speaking both English and Portuguese. I look forward to meeting you!
Hi! My name is Bayla. I offer childcare, pet care, and household services. I love working with kids! For the last year, I have been working for Reading Partners at an elementary school in Brooklyn, providing extra literacy support to students in grades K-5. This summer I am an assistant teacher at Wonderforest Preschool! I have experience with all age groups. I always center patience, enthusiasm, and understanding when working with kids. I love to allow kids to explore their natural curiosity and better understand who they are. I am looking for a role as an after-school nanny this school year, with flexibility in the afternoon hours. I also have pet care experience and can support with household work where necessary. I am happy to support your family in any way that I can!
With 9 years of experience, I'm passionate about creating a fun, safe, and nurturing environment for children. I specialize in caring for toddlers, preschoolers, and gradeschoolers, and I'm comfortable with pets, cooking, chores, and homework assistance. I'm patient, friendly, and responsible, and I love reading, crafting, and playing games with kids. I'm eager to provide exceptional care for your little ones in your home.
Hi, my name is Renée! I have national and international experience in childcare, teaching, and mentoring children to young adults. For each job, I’ve dedicated myself to the child’s well-being. I’m willing to work in any capacity, and I look forward to meeting you :)
As an empty nester who raised three children of my own, I bring a level of 'mom intuition' and calm authority that only comes with decades of experience. I specialize in providing high-end, reliable care for families who need a seasoned professional they can trust immediately. My background is unique: I’ve supervised a world-renowned kids' club, taught a wide range of subjects, and have extensive experience working with foster youth. This means I am exceptionally adaptable, patient, and capable of managing any situation—from high-energy play to quiet routines—with ease. I am available for day-by-day, occasional, and last-minute bookings. Whether it’s a date night or backup care during a busy day, my goal is to provide your children with an engaging, safe, and positive environment so you can have total peace of mind while you're away. I am comfortable with all ages and look forward to meeting your family! I graduated from NYU and majored in psychology.

"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
