Luci $32 per hour for 1 child
Hi! I’m Luci. 😊 New to this platform and happy to provide copies of my background checks. I’m a warm and dependable babysitter with three years of experience caring for children ages 10 months to 8 years. I focus on helping kids feel safe, understood, and supported while keeping routines calm and predictable. I recently graduated from Middlebury College, where I studied psychology with a focus on child development. This background helps me support emotional regulation, communication, and positive behavior, especially for children with ADHD or on the autism spectrum. I’m certified in First Aid and CPR and have experience with homework help, simple meal prep, bathroom routines, school pick ups and drop offs, and supporting bilingual English and Spanish language development. I also love incorporating creative, screen free activities like art, movement, and imaginative play. Families describe me as patient, attentive, and reliable. I communicate clearly with parents and follow household routines closely. I’m currently seeking a part time, long term position Tuesday through Friday and am available to start ASAP. I’d love to connect and learn more about your family.
Alyssa $21 per hour for 1 child
Hi my name is Alyssa I'm currently a student at Hunter college looking for a way to gain more experience with kids as I am juggling between possible careers of an elementary school teacher or a small animal vet. I offer child care preferable toddler age to elementary school age. I enjoy babysitting kids I love to think of it as hanging out with them rather than being bossy. During the summer I work as a camp counselor, for 2 years I babysat a 5 year old girl afterschool, and I worked with a toddler for occasional weekends. I am familiar with traveling with children to any activities but I cannot drive as yet. I enjoy cartoons, being outside, drawing and painting. I love to think of myself as a fun and loving person. I am pet friendly as I do have two cats and hopefully a dog in the future. A secret plus if you do have a dog, I would love to walk your dog its enjoyable to me.

Love cats! I can take care of multiple cats including ones with special needs. Happy to do overnight pet sitting if your cats need someone around more than a few minutes a day.
Jesse $25 per hour for 1 child
High school teacher who previously worked as a life guard and swim teacher to children ages 3-15. I really enjoy connecting with children of all ages, whether it's hearing about the book they love, the new slang they're using or playing a board game with inventive rules.
Marchia $35 per hour for 1 child
Hi- my name Marchia. I’m offering childcare, senior care and household services. I am a very humble person, I have a special love for children and the elderly. I am very clean and organized and I enjoy cooking. In my experience working with babies I wholeheartedly enjoy being apart of their formative years and witnessing their personalities coming together. I have approximately 2.5 years experience working with children professionally but almost 20 years in total babysitting and looking after my own brother and cousins. I work really well with seniors and enjoy conversations with them as well.

"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."
