Hi, I’m Stephanie! I’m 30 years old and have been working in special education for nearly 10 years. I was born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area and am a proud San Jose State University alum, go Spartans! Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to work with children and teens ages 4 through 19. I began my career as an ABA therapist for children with autism, which led me to roles supporting various school districts by coordinating services and assisting students with special needs. My experience spans transitional kindergarten through high school, and in my earlier years, I also worked at summer camps and after-school programs. As the oldest of four siblings, caregiving has always been a natural part of my life. A little about me is I love to travel and explore new cultures! I’m also CPR and First Aid certified and available on evenings and weekends. Feel free to reach out. I’d love to support your family!
Hi, I’m Meeka! I just moved to new york and I’m currently in college and will be graduating this December with a degree in Finance. I’ve been babysitting since I was 14, and for the past 4 years I’ve gained nannying experience with children from infancy through age 12. I’ve also handled a few overnight stays, so I’m comfortable with longer care when needed. I love building fun, safe, and nurturing environments for kids, and I’m patient and adaptable to each child’s needs. Alongside childcare, I’m also great with pets—I have two dogs of my own and absolutely love cats, so furry family members are always a bonus for me! I look forward to supporting families with reliable care, whether it’s for a few hours or something more regular.
Hello! My name is Lenice and I am a MACTE trained Montessori infant toddler teacher and professional babysitter. I am an expert in having fun, creating safe spaces and activities and seeing each child’s unique capabilities and forming lasting connections
My name is Louise, I’m currently a graduate student in childhood education at Hunter College. I have more than 9 years of childcare and education experience and a passion for working with children! My work experience has been with all ages from infant care to older children. I’ve also worked as a tutor, teacher, and summer camp counselor. I love creating engaging activities for kids, going outside, and doing crafts. I look forward to meeting you!
Hi, I’m Gideon! I am a student studying art and psychology living on the Upper West Side, hoping to go to rabbinical school in the future. I love music, singing, art, cooking, and gardening! I have experience caring for children ages 10–12 as well as teaching farming and Hebrew to ages 5–16. I am proficient in Hebrew and Arabic and have some knowledge of Spanish as well. I want to make sure your little ones are well looked after, having fun, and always learning!

"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
