Hi there! I am 23 years old living in NYC working in advertising, looking for babysitting opportunities. I have extensive babysitting experience with children whose ages range from infants to teenagers. I am CPR certified and majored in Human Development and Family Science at Syracuse University where I focused on child development and worked at an afterschool program for underprivileged children for the entirety of my senior year. During my time at Syracuse I was also a member of the division 1 women’s lacrosse team. I love to bake, read, run, and I love kids!
Hey. I’m not gonna lie but this is my first babysitting job (officially). I’ve taken care of both my siblings. I have taken care kids in my neighbourhood from infants to upto 10 year olds. Changing diapers, preparing food based on needs, feeding, playing, teaching, walks, games, you name it haha. I have experience taking care of seniors & have taken care of seniors with dementia and trouble walking. I’m a registered pet sitter at care.com as well. As far as pets go I don’t have experience training but I can walk, dropin and sit. I do work from home in IT but that will never affect me providing amazing care because my job is super lowk and I barely have to pick up my laptop, i mostly just respond to emails haha. I’m sure your little ones will be interested in a software engineer does too haha
Hi! I’m Taylor, I’m 21 years old, going into my 4th year at Parsons School of Design, living in the East Village. Growing up in California I babysat for several families with children of different age ranges. I developed a love for children and being able to help families! I’m always happy to be an extra set of hands around the house and help families wherever needed. Addition to babysitting, my first job was a gymnastics coach for kids of all ages. In my free time I enjoy reading, working out, and going on long walks to enjoy the city!
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 my name is Alex and I’m currently a college student at the New School. I have been babysitting for the past three years for children around the ages of five to twelve. I also have experience in tutoring children in reading and writing. I’m also an art student so if your child has any interest in art I’d be more than happy to nurture their interest in teaching them and taking them to art museums. I also have experience in caring for cats and reptiles. So if you have either I’d be willing to care for them in anyway they need.

"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."
