Hello! My name is Natalie and I am here to offer my services for child care, dog care, and household chores. I am newer to the Urban Sitter community, but I have 10+ experience with babysitting, as well as children's camp counseling. As an actor/writer, I bring a lot of heart, creativity, and patience to the care I provide. I am looking for part-time work, including pick ups & drop offs from school/activities, cooking/cleaning, date night babysitting, and playtime. I love kids, and I am looking forward to building trusting relationships with the families I provide care for. Additionally, I have been a dog owner for almost 15 years, so I am here for any pet-related needs as well, as I am organized, cleanly, and enjoy taking dogs on long walks. I look forward to meeting you!

Hi there, I’m Sanne (pronounced like sauna). I live in the west village of manhattan with my dog Beanie! I was laid off in May and am looking for a part time, date night/afternoons position while I look for another job. I’m great with kids and animals, I grew up playing sports so nothing I love more than playing outside! I’m also a big bookworm and will advocate for the library over the TV any day. I believe kids are smarter than we give them credit for and deserve a gentle, care free life. I also love to clean and have no problem helping keep things tidy. So if you’re looking for an extra set of hands, I’m happy to step in!
Hi! I’m a marketing professional, actress, and lifelong creative who genuinely loves spending time with kids. I have a 3-year-old niece and 5-year-old nephew who are two of my favorite people, and I love being part of their adventures—whether that’s playing pretend, creating art projects, reading stories, or spending time outdoors. I’m energetic, imaginative, patient, and responsible, and I enjoy helping children feel safe, confident, and engaged. My background in creative fields has made me a natural storyteller and problem-solver, and I’m comfortable keeping up with active kids while also creating calm, structured routines when needed. Families describe me as warm, dependable, and easy to communicate with. Whether you need occasional date-night coverage, after-school help, or a reliable sitter for regular care, I’d love the opportunity to support your family.

"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!"
