Hi! I'm Kelly. I have 20+ years of childcare experience with specializations in infant care and autism care. I hold a BA in English from UNCG and an MA in literature from CCNY. My favorite thing to do with children of all ages is share my love for reading. I have 4 years of teaching experience including ADHD executive functioning coaching and teaching English at the undergraduate level. I work in non-profit communications.
“Kelly was so great with my 3 year old and 7 month old and was able to put both kids to bed on her first visit with us while we went out for date night. Our 7 month old was pretty fussy and she was able to manage everything like a pro! Would 100% book her again for babysitting. ”
My name is Sam, and I'm excited to introduce myself as a potential caregiver for your family! With over a decade of experience in childcare, including watching infants, toddlers, and kids since the age of 12, I bring a wealth of expertise and enthusiasm to the table. I went to the University of Virginia (UVA), and graduated in 2022. One of my favorite classes during my time there was Child Psychology! Beyond babysitting, I've spent four summers volunteering in a children's hospital. I had rotations in the NICU and on the long term care floors. I also served as a camp counselor at UVA's Camp Kesem, a week long summer camp for children whose parents have cancer. These experiences have deepened my understanding of child development and honed my ability to create a safe and engaging environment for kids of all ages. In addition to childcare, I'm more than happy to lend a hand with household tasks, whether it's cooking, cleaning, or running errands. Plus, being a pet lover myself, I'm fully equipped to provide top-notch care for your furry family members, including feeding, playtime, and walks. I'm eager to learn more about your family's needs and how I can contribute to making your lives a little easier and a lot more fun! Let's connect soon to discuss further. Thanks! Sam
“Samantha was awesome! Our daughter had a great time going on a Brooklyn adventure while I was there for work! So happy we met Samantha and my daughter felt so safe and comfortable with her! ”
Hello! My name is Maya. I have 10 years of paid experience, and am CPR certified. I am fully vaccinated and just received my Master's degree. I work full time now but have flexibility. I have experience with all ages, including infants, and multiple kids. I can prepare simple meals, tidy up, and open to discuss other tasks. I am a friendly, attentive, kind, caring, and experienced babysitter and would love to help your family! Thanks!
Hi there! Thank you for considering me. Here’s a bit about me: I am a former elementary school special education teacher in which I have 6 years of experience. Last year, I transitioned out my teaching role and now own a travel agency. Now that I'm no longer in the classroom I primarily support families with providing occasional care for after school, family nights out, last minute cancellations, as well as nannying abroad. UrbanSitter has given me the opportunity to continue supporting families and use my educator skills in a variety of settings. I am oldest sister of 3 and was the primary sitter for my brothers growing up. They inspired me to become a teacher and bring love and compassion into the classroom, and now anywhere I go. I have experience with infants, toddlers and elementary age children. I am able to change diapers, follow feeding directions and complete a variety of care routines as needed. I offer virtual homework help and tutoring services as well. Feel free to message me about this to discuss rate if interested.
“She was amazing—by far the most reliable sitter I’ve ever had! Despite the early morning shift, she arrived right on time and kept me updated as she was on her way. My child had a great time with her.”
Hey there! My name is Sophie and I recently graduated with my B.S. in Biology. I am offering childcare, tutoring, and household services. I love babysitting and have been taking care of children from 5 months - 12 years since I was 14. My responsibilities have included taking them to sports, dance lessons, and playground time, and engaging in board games, crafts, tutoring, meal time, reading, imaginative play, snack time, and bed time routines (including baby monitors)🌟 I’ve worked with nurseries, summer camps, and individual families, most of my experience being outside this app. I can also cook, clean, and run errands. I love animals and can happily work with families with any pets.
“Sophie was prompt, kind, and my kids had a great time with her! ”

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
