Hi everyone! My name is Elizabeth, and I am a warm, reliable, and creative caregiver with over 10 years of babysitting experience working with children of all ages. I graduated from the University of Notre Dame ('24) with a BA in History and Political Science, and I just recently completed a Master of Philosophy in History from the University of Cambridge in the UK this past summer! I started babysitting at the age of 12 and have since developed a strong ability to connect with kids, keep them engaged, and create a safe, positive environment. In addition to babysitting, I spent nearly 5 years as a gymnastics coach for children ranging from preschool through 8th grade. Being a coach enabled me to build patience, adaptability, and a knack for balancing fun with structure, whether that’s leading active play, helping with homework, or managing bedtime routines. I love planning creative and engaging activities like arts and crafts, outdoor games, and imaginative play, and I always aim to tailor my approach to each child’s personality and interests. I am more than happy to support educational activities as well. I would love the opportunity to support your family and provide attentive, engaging care for your children!
Hi! I’m Alexis! I’ve been babysitting for years and have worked with kids of all ages, from newborns to teens. I also spent several summers as a camp counselor for ages 2–6, planning activities, keeping everyone safe, and making sure every day was full of fun and laughter. I’m currently a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) and CPR/BLS certified, so you can trust that your little ones are in safe hands. I’m also in nursing school, where I’m specializing in women’s health and pediatrics. My goal is to build a career focused on caring for others, and childcare has always been something that feels natural and meaningful to me. I love connecting with kids, whether that means playing outside, doing crafts, helping with homework, or creating cozy routines. I’m patient, responsible, and love bringing a positive, calm energy to every home I work in. A little more about me: I grew up skiing, love being outdoors, hiking, and exploring new places. I truly love being working with families and kids, and I’d be so excited to be a trusted part of yours!
I am a native New Mexican currently living in the South Bronx. I have a bachelors degree in Anthropology from UNM. I’m a flight attendant for a major airline. I fly part time & currently have both doses of the Pfizer vaccine plus booster ! In lieu of recent events, my usual flying schedule has decreased which has given me the opportunity to stay grounded in the city. I have extended experience babysitting & handling stressful situations. I love animals, art, music and am happy to share my admiration for these hobbies with any child eager to expand their curious minds. I love to hear and learn about any infant care routines that make your baby feel safe and loved. Looking forward to helping out with occasional jobs.
“Showed up on time and was great with the kids! Appreciated the regular updates and communication.”
Hi there! I'm Kendall, a date-night sitter with 20 years of experience. While I appreciate your interest, I have no availability for full-time, part-time jobs or jobs during the day, because I have a 9-5 job as a product manager. Fully vaccinated (boosted Dec 2021, Oct 2022). Specialties: date nights, travel sitting (in hotels and Airbnbs), ages newborn to 3 I absolutely love working with kids. I started babysitting when I was 11 years old as a mother's helper for a family on my block, and kept babysitting for several families all through high school. I have experience with kids of all ages, from 6 week old newborns to 12 year old middle schoolers. I used to lead a dance company for kids with physical disabilities, so I am big on movement as well! If it's nice out, I also love taking kids outside to play. I have experience working with kids who have autism and Down syndrome. I have worked on UrbanSitter on and off since 2014, and have had the opportunity to work with so many amazing families. I understand the hesitation in booking a babysitter online, but I've found great relationships and mentors in many of the families I've sat for. Thanks for reading and I'd be happy to talk with you soon.
“Kendall is great! Sweet, professional, smart. ”
Hello Families, My name is Angela, and I am from Colombia. I am a graduate student in Public Health. I have been caring for children for the past 18 years. I am CPR/First Aid certified and possess a California driver's license. I am current on all my vaccines. I am also a certified Postpartum Doula with over 13 years of experience. My philosophy is to support the baby, the mom, and the family in creating a balanced and loving environment. I am highly dedicated to my work and take it seriously. I enjoy activities such as engaging in art projects, visiting parks, museums, and zoos, going for walks, and baking with children. I appreciate parents who provide clear instructions for their children's routines, set boundaries, and communicate effectively. One preference I have is that children usually stay away from screens while with me, except on weekends, although I respect if parents prefer otherwise. Please feel free to contact me if you have any further questions!
