Hi! My name is Annie and I just graduated from the University of Virginia with my degree in nursing. I work in the city and I love to babysit in my free time!! I have lots of experience with a wide age range.
I currently have more than 5 years of child-care experience. I enjoy going on outdoor walks and any activities that involve learning. I am open to light household cleaning and running errands. I am also comfortable with pets of all sizes.
Hi! I’m Divya, a 26-year-old finance professional living in NYC. I’m available in the evenings and on weekends and I love spending time with kids and helping families out. I’ve been caring for children for many years-from keeping infants and little ones entertained with games and crafts to helping older kids with homework or getting them to activities on time. I’m happy to help with light housework, laundry, or meal prep, and I’m always up for a trip to the park or some fun, active play. Families tell me I’m energetic, caring, and easy to work with. I make it a priority to create a safe, happy, and engaging environment for kids, whether we’re cooking together, doing a puzzle, or winding down with a story. * I am CPR and First Aid certified
Hi, My name is Brianna. I live in Queens, and I am an educator on the Upper East Side. I have my Master's of Science in Teaching Early Childhood Education from Pace University. I have been teaching for 10 years; I currently work with older 2s, but have worked with 3s, Pre-K, and Kindergarten. I have extensive babysitting experience with a range of ages: from infants to middle schoolers. I enjoy taking kids to the playground, baking or cooking fun treats, and doing arts and crafts! In my spare time, I love staying active by doing yoga, cooking, and listening to music. Looking forward to talking with you!
Hi all! I am Elizabeth Martel, a 23 year old female currently living on the Upper West Side! I am from Dallas, TX and I moved to NYC in May 2025 and have loved every second of it since! I’m a paralegal at a law firm where I spend my days, but in my evenings and on the weekends I love babysitting. When first moving to New York I really wanted to get into babysitting as it was something I enjoyed doing back home and was a good way to dive into my new city. Since then I have grown my babysitting connections and now have over 8 families I consistently babysit for all over the city. I mainly sit for infants/ and new borns, but also have experience with a wide range of ages from newborn - 11 years old. I am CPR certified, comfortable in high stress situations, and good at juggling multiple tasks. The children’s safety is always my top priority. I’m always available to have a meeting before as well!
“Elizabeth was so wonderful with our infant! She arrived on time, she was so sweet with him, and we found he was super comfortable with her immediately. 10/10 recommend!”

"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
