Hi! My name is Willow and I am a recent grad from NYU. I have some babysitting experience for other families in high school, but most of my experience is with my younger brother from the ages of 0-4. Responsibilities include running errands, outdoor time, crafting, cooking, cleaning the house, and bedtime. I am flexible, warm and patient. Right now I am working part time at Brooklinen, where much of my focus is on making sure people feel welcome. I love meeting new people, and work great one-on-one. Outside of customer service, my job is to maintain a clean and comfortable space. I am calm, flexible, and comfortable balancing interaction with organizational tasks. I also have dog and cat sitting experience. I have had pets my whole life- I love animals and am very comfortable with their care. I have experience with nannying for senior cats over an extended period, and am comfortable with feeding, changing litter, giving medication and playing. With my own dogs, I am comfortable walking them daily, and taking care of hygiene such as teeth brushing and hair brushing.
Hi, I’m Lena (lee-nah) While I’m new to the Urban Sitters app, I bring over a decade of professional childcare experience, supporting families with diverse living situations, dietary preferences, age groups and developmental needs. I love building connections with the children and families I work with, taking the time to understand their interests, routines and learning how I can contribute to their growth and well-being. As a dependable and trustworthy caregiver, I’m also deeply committed to fostering healthy development and creating a positive environment for every family I work with. I take pride in offering tailored care for siblings while accommodating the ever-changing needs of busy parents. I’d be happy to answer any questions about my experience or arrange an introductory call/meeting. Thanks for your consideration!
“Lena is the absolute BEST. Do not hesitate before booking her. We did a veryyy long search before hiring her, as we are picky neurotic first time parents. Lena is absolutely amazing with our 5-month-old—always actively engaging with her, and our baby loves her. And when she naps, Lena cooks us the best meals!! We are so grateful to have found her.”
Hi! My name is Irine and I'm a graduate student at Pratt Institute. I'm offering child care and tutoring. I've done childcare work, as well as worked with NYC elementary and middle school students, and in creative summer camp settings. My responsibilities have included helping with homework, making snacks, arts and crafts, creating activities and more.
Hi! My name is Beck (she/they) and I am sitter/caregiver with 10+ years of experience. I have been a nanny/sitter in the city for over dozens of families for kids ages newborn-13 years old (including experience with twins and triplets!). I am also comfortable being a caregiver for seniors and children/adults with different abilities and special needs as I have cared for both. My prior responsibilities include driving, creative outlets (music and dance as I have a background in those), cooking, house work/cleaning, and running errands. I am also comfortable with any type of pet you may have and offer pet/house sitting as well! I look forward to meeting you and your family!
I have a close relationship with the children in my family and have been involved in caretaking for my younger cousins since my years early in high school (14-15 years old). I've also been responsible for caretaking for my neighbor's dog regularly during the day from 9-7/8 PM and am very comfortable with dogs generally.

"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!"
Hillary S., parent
"We used Tania for a last minute emergency. She responded very quickly. My daughter seemed to enjoy herself. My son napped most of the time. I enjoyed how she kept me updated by text."
Theresa M., parent
"Hannah was awesome. Went above & beyond to help me with a last minute emergency. She was really sweet & great with my 16mo old. Highly recommend!!"
