Hello to all the parents in the urbansitter world. I live in Bronx NY, I'm a mom, an aunt and a great aunt, I have a big family that is still growing by God’s grace. I'm a reliable and on time committed mature professional babysitter. I have more than 25 years of experience babysitting. I cook, clean and i have my own car to run errands. I enjoy babysitting and helping others families with childcare. I enjoy arts & crafts, going outside playing in the park and going on field trips with your kids. I'm available for part-time, occasionally babysitting, and date nights too. My availability is not set in stone so I'm able to stay later and switch dates as well. Please contact me to discuss your needs. Thank you

Annie $14 per hour for 1 child
Low rate to get my first reviews! I have a Neuroscience degree from the University of Michigan, and I'm hoping to build a bigger babysitting network to supplement the income from my part-time job, which involves social media and live comedy. Don't let my lack of reviews scare you away! I'm quite normal and definitely not creepy, and I'm happy to have a quick videochat before you take the plunge and book the unreviewed (but not inexperienced for the record!!) babysitter. I have babysat and nannied extensively over the past 12 years, and am comfortable with infants up to teens. In the past I've worked as a full time fifth grade math support staff in a public school, a preschool swim instructor, and nurse aide in a dementia facility for covid lockdown. I'm very attentive! I'm rarely on my phone when I'm with kids unless it's for something that matters, like to take a cute pic of them or to call a pediatrics MD about a nonurgent health issue—which is actually quite convenient for me because my mom is one. Once I get a handful of reviews, I'll start charging more like $30-40/hr depending on the number of kids. So send a message soon—you don't want to miss these Black Friday deals!

"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."
