Hi everyone! My name is Elizabeth, and I am a warm, reliable, and creative caregiver with over 10 years of babysitting experience working with children of all ages. I graduated from the University of Notre Dame ('24) with a BA in History and Political Science, and I just recently completed a Master of Philosophy in History from the University of Cambridge in the UK this past summer! I started babysitting at the age of 12 and have since developed a strong ability to connect with kids, keep them engaged, and create a safe, positive environment. In addition to babysitting, I spent nearly 5 years as a gymnastics coach for children ranging from preschool through 8th grade. Being a coach enabled me to build patience, adaptability, and a knack for balancing fun with structure, whether that’s leading active play, helping with homework, or managing bedtime routines. I love planning creative and engaging activities like arts and crafts, outdoor games, and imaginative play, and I always aim to tailor my approach to each child’s personality and interests. I am more than happy to support educational activities as well. I would love the opportunity to support your family and provide attentive, engaging care for your children!
Hi! I’m a senior at NYU based in NYC, and I’m new to Urban Sitter. I’m here to help with babysitting, housesitting, tutoring, or even just keeping your kids active with sports like soccer, volleyball, or climbing. As the oldest sibling in my family and a trusted babysitter since high school, I bring plenty of experience, responsibility, and energy to every job. You can count on me to be reliable, attentive, and fun. Looking forward to helping out your family!
Hello! I’m an Art History major at the University of Virginia and currently a visiting student at NYU. I have several years of experience babysitting for family, friends, and younger cousins, as well as volunteering as a tutor for kids from pre-K through middle school. I love working with children and always aim to create a safe, fun, and engaging environment for them. I’m also a big animal lover and have experience caring for both dogs and cats. Last summer, I worked as a gallery assistant in South Carolina, where I managed the space independently—cleaning, organizing, and helping visitors. That role really taught me responsibility, reliability, and how to stay calm under pressure—qualities I bring to babysitting as well! I am correctly in New York from May 2025 - August 2025 I’d love the opportunity to support your family and get to know your little ones!
Hi I'm Maggie! I'm new to NYC but have nannied on and off throughout the last 8 years. My experience ranges from infants <6 months old to kids approaching teenage years. A little about me: I love to be outdoors, and love your go-to babysitter for fun, safe, and reliable care! I love helping families by creating a warm and engaging environment for their little ones. Whether it's reading stories, playing games, or outdoor adventures, I’m all about making sure kids are entertained while staying safe and happy. I’m CPR certified, and I'm comfortable with multiple children, pets, etc. I take pride in being punctual, responsible, and communicative. Parents love knowing that their children are in good hands, and I always make sure to keep the lines of communication open! I can provide a variety of services, from casual babysitting to regular weekly hours, and I’m also open to light housekeeping or meal prep if needed. Feel free to reach out if you'd like to discuss how I can help your family!

"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."
