Find an emergency babysitter in Ridgewood, NY

Hi families! My name is Chantal and I’m a childcare provider based in NYC for 4 years with 6 years total of hands-on childcare experience. I am currently studying Childhood Education and have a strong background in child development! For the past 4 years, I worked closely with one long-term family, helping care for their child as they grew. As they’ve gotten older and no longer require care, I’m excited to connect with new families here on UrbanSitter! Throughout those years, I also worked consistently with several other wonderful families on an occasional basis, building strong relationships along the way! :) I genuinely enjoy creating a fun environment for kids, and arts & crafts are definitely one of my favorite go-to activities! While I’m new to UrbanSitter, childcare is absolutely not new to me! My profile may still be growing, but I’m happy to provide excellent references and recommendations from the amazing families I’ve worked with upon request. I look forward to meeting your family!

On Urbansitter since 2018. Experienced babysitter of 12+ years caring for newborns, toddlers, and kids of all ages. Known to make playtime fun, bedtime easy, and always put safety first. Happy to share quick updates while you’re out so you know your little one is in good hands. I have completed both Caregiver First Aid training and Wilderness First Aid with NOLS, although I have not renewed this year.

Hi Families! I'm Ella, I'm 22 years old, and a recent graduate from the University of Connecticut. I moved to NYC from Charlotte, NC this past August to pursue my career in publishing at Penguin Random House. I used to be a swim coach working with lots of children ranging from ages 3-17 for a summer swim team! I also have plenty of experience providing private and group swim lessons. I have babysat for multiple families and am comfortable running errands, pet sitting/ dog walking, prepping meals, pickups and drop offs and helping with homework for afterschool! I used to be an English major and now work all the time with books and would love to share my love for reading with your kids! I also am very comfortable with dogs and cats! I have two cats and grea up with dogs. I am very responsible and a hard worker. New York is very difficult to afford, I want to babysit or petsit for an additional income. Because I work a 9-5, my hours are limited, but if you have any consistent or inconsistent babysitting needs that aligns with this, please let me know!

Hello! My name is Ana and I am offering child care and pet care. I love babysitting and have watched toddlers, kids, dogs, and cats (also can do other animals!). My responsibilities included keeping the kids entertained, helping them with their schoolwork, putting them into bed, cooking for them, and even picking them up from school. With dogs and cats - my responsibilities are taking the dogs out for a walk, keeping up the training routines, and at times keeping the dog company. For cats — I make sure they are feed and the litter box is cleaned (which is super important especially for cats), if the cat is playful - I enjoy playing with them. If not, I can sit there and enjoy each other’s company. Whichever flows their boats. I can sail around them. I dog trained for 3 years at Petco from 2016 - 2018 (I still practice my skills on my cat and other dogs I meet) I have worked with various dogs like Hound dogs, Poodles, Corgis, and the list can go on. Cats! I have one of my own and her name is Leche. She is the sweetest. I love taking care of pets and children. I love engaging with them and helping others with their little ones (animals and children). There’s a joy that comes with being an extra hand and being at service for others. I have not yet cared for Seniors but happy to be a caretaker. Hope to be your sitter, Ana :)
