Hi! I am a 26 year old Psychology graduate and have worked with kids since 2015. I love working with kids and playing with them while being vigilant and making sure they’re safe. I am bubbly and energetic which helps keep up with the kids energy as well as household chores. I have worked with kids with special needs as well as kids at a camp and in a day care which gives me a versatile amount of experience with varying ages of kids.
My name is Sofia, I'm 24 years old and I've been babysitting since I was 15 years old. I absolutely love children and animals, and can't wait to have children of my own some day. I graduated from Scripps College during Spring 2023. The families I have babysat for in the past describe me as kind, loving, responsible, communicative, and encouraging. I grew up abroad and babysat for an American family twice a week in high school, ages 6 and 10; I babysat a family friend's 4 year old over the summer when I was 17 years old; and most recently, I was a regular babysitter for a family in California as a college student, ages 5 and 8. I am half Japanese/half Russian and feel very comfortable in multicultural familial environments. I like to connect with children as my equal, while maintaining a responsible and trusting relationship. I also have grown up around animals and have experience pet/house sitting. I love to cook for myself and would be happy to cook nutritious and delicious meals for your children! I am happy to meet your family's needs, whether this involves children, animals, or cleaning duties/errands. I look forward to speaking with you soon!
Hello there! My name is Cameron and I am offering babysitting services in Brooklyn and Manhattan. I am new to Urban Sitter, but not new to babysitting! I have experience with children ages two through twelve. I was also an overnight chaperone for the Kennedy Center Dance Lab in 2023. I also have experience in dance education. I have taught a range of students from ages 5-18. Teaching has given me so much knowledge about how to tend to children of different natures, temperaments, and personalities! I graduated from Howard University with a B.F.A in Dance Arts, and currently work for a dance company called Urban Bush Women. I will keep your little ones active, entertained, and creative in spirit! Additionally, I am CPR certified and the eldest of five siblings. Feel free to reach out with any questions or inquiries!
I’m a senior at NYU with a strong background in childcare and safety. I’m a certified lifeguard trained in CPR, First Aid, and emergency response, and I bring that same attentiveness and calm presence to caregiving. I’m responsible, patient, and engaging, with experience caring for children and pets. Families appreciate my reliability, clear communication, and punctuality.

"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!"
