Hello there! I’m Lily, and I am experienced with children of all ages. I graduated with a MA in psychology from the New School for Social Research. Prior to being a childcare provider, I worked at a nonprofit that served high-risk adolescents. It made me very attuned to detail and comfortable in fast-paced, high stress environments—qualities that I believe will come in handy when caring for children. I babysat for years in NYC and SF through college and grad school. I have recently returned to UrbanSitter for occasional evening / nighttime work. CANCELLATION POLICY As compensation for lost time due to last minute cancellations, I expect 50% of the original booking amount for cancellations with less than 48 hours notice and the full amount for same day cancellations. Payable via Venmo or Zelle.
“Very professional, would totally recommend!”

Hello and welcome to my profile! My name is Carolina, I’m a 31 year old dog lover and passionate about fashion and beauty. I’ve always loved babies and kids, and have been a babysitter for 14 years, started with local families in my hometown when I was in High School, and continued doing it for families around New York since I moved to the city in 2018. I am CPR and First Aid certified (willing to provide proof) and have 16 years of experience with all ages from newborns to teenagers. I always decide and adapt the activities I do with them according to their age and interests, but some of my favorite things to do with the kids are: - Teaching them Spanish - Spending time outdoors at parks or playgrounds - Drawing, crafting, and reading - Building legos, blocks, or puzzles - Baking and cooking IMPORTANT: - I was a preemie baby and I catch viruses and colds easily, so I cannot babysit sick babies/kids. BOOKING POLICIES: If the booking starts later or ends earlier than expected, I still expect the payment for the original booking agreed. CANCELLATIONS: For cancellations with less than 48 hours notice, I require 50% of the original booking amount and for the ones with less than 24 hours notice, 100% of the original booking amount, which can be paid via Zelle or Venmo. Feel free to send a message if you have any questions. I am very much looking forward to meeting you and your children.
“Carolina was very nice and sweet for our little one, highly recommend her!”
Hello! I work full-time as a Child Mental Health Therapist. I have a Masters degree in Social Work from Columbia University. Prior to that, I attended and graduated from Pace University where I majored in Psychology. I have a lot of experience working with children as I have been a part time nanny before. I have babysat children from newborn age to 13 years old. I have experience changing diapers, making baby formula, playing with children, reading and helping them write and just doing activities with them. I have experience doing pick ups and drop offs and also babysitting multiple children at once. I also have experience with bathtime and bed time routine and can help prepare meals if needed. I love babysitting because it has helped me become more patient with children and I love being around children because they are just full with life and happiness. I love to travel, do yoga and dance classes and read and hang out with friends! I am someone who you can always count on to be there for you and help you out!
“Bianca did a great job playing/reading with our 13-month old! Our girl liked her right away. She was communicative and punctual as well.”
Hello! My name is Stephanni and I have been babysitting/working in daycare centers for over a decade, beginning at my church nursery when I turned 14. I worked there for two years, taking care of children from 3 months-12 years old. When I turned 16, I began working at the daycare center at Lifetime Fitness (a gym in Texas) until I graduated high school. In college, I nannied for 3 children ages 11-15, and drove them to and from their after school activities. I moved to NY from Texas 10 years ago and have no plans to move anywhere else! My favorite thing to do in the city is to walk around and explore different neighborhoods and try different restaurants. In my spare time, I also love going to concerts and traveling! Please don't hesitate to reach out if you need more information!

"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."
