Experienced and enthusiastic babysitter based in New York with a strong background working with children in different settings. I’ve been a cheerleading coach, worked in sports programs for kids, and I’ve also been a children’s party entertainer, leading group games, fun activities, dance moments, and making balloon figures that always make kids smile. I’m a patient, warm, and caring person who truly enjoys making children feel happy, safe, and understood. I love creating activities that include dancing, arts and crafts, creative play, and little learning moments. I’m also happy to help with homework and keep routines calm and organized. I easily adapt to each family’s rules, and I always communicate with kindness and respect. I’m comfortable caring for children ages 4+, and I’m bilingual in English and Spanish. I’m available for occasional babysitting, date nights, last-minute help, and afternoon or evening shifts. I am very aware that childhood is the most important stage of a person’s life, and I am happy to contribute positively to it. I would love to support your family and your children’s growth with care, respect, and joy.
Hello families! I'm Sabira, your go-to babysitter! Growing up in a bustling house with lots of nieces and nephews aged 6 months to 18 years old has been the best training ground for my passion in childcare. I started my babysitting journey at 17 and I have accumulated experience through various paid babysitting jobs. I can adapt to the unique needs of children from different age groups. Whether it's assisting with homework, playdates, or arts and crafts, l'm here to make every moment memorable. In addition, I have a sister with special needs, so l am well-versed in providing the extra care and attention that special needs children often require. Certified in first aid and CPR, I prioritize safety while ensuring punctuality and fun! Whether it's school pickups, mealtime, or playing, your child's happiness and well-being are always my top priorities. Feel free to reach out—I'm just a message away.
My name is Sofia, I'm 24 years old and I've been babysitting since I was 15 years old. I absolutely love children and animals, and can't wait to have children of my own some day. I graduated from Scripps College during Spring 2023. The families I have babysat for in the past describe me as kind, loving, responsible, communicative, and encouraging. I grew up abroad and babysat for an American family twice a week in high school, ages 6 and 10; I babysat a family friend's 4 year old over the summer when I was 17 years old; and most recently, I was a regular babysitter for a family in California as a college student, ages 5 and 8. I am half Japanese/half Russian and feel very comfortable in multicultural familial environments. I like to connect with children as my equal, while maintaining a responsible and trusting relationship. I also have grown up around animals and have experience pet/house sitting. I love to cook for myself and would be happy to cook nutritious and delicious meals for your children! I am happy to meet your family's needs, whether this involves children, animals, or cleaning duties/errands. I look forward to speaking with you soon!
Hello! My name is Sienna. I’m a recent graduate from the UPenn and am an oncology nurse here in NYC. I work with the adult population in the hospital, but I’ve always loved working with kids. I was a babysitter for 2 years in high school, and I also worked in a children’s hospital throughout my time in undergrad. I’m attentive, detail oriented, patient, and especially love being playful with kids. I'm comfortable with a variety of tasks, from arts and crafts to tutoring to accompanying kids to their extracurriculars. I’m also an avid cook and baker outside of my full time job and would be more than happy to bring those skills to your family as well! On top of that, I am CPR certified and happy to provide care if your child has any medical needs. I am allergic to cats but am happy to work with families with dogs!

"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."
