Ramyaa $23 per hour for 1 child

Hey. I’m not gonna lie but this is my first babysitting job (officially). I’ve taken care of both my siblings. I have taken care kids in my neighbourhood from infants to upto 10 year olds. Changing diapers, preparing food based on needs, feeding, playing, teaching, walks, games, you name it haha. I have experience taking care of seniors & have taken care of seniors with dementia and trouble walking. I’m a registered pet sitter at care.com as well. As far as pets go I don’t have experience training but I can walk, dropin and sit. I do work from home in IT but that will never affect me providing amazing care because my job is super lowk and I barely have to pick up my laptop, i mostly just respond to emails haha. I’m sure your little ones will be interested in a software engineer does too haha

Taylor $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Taylor, I’m 21 years old, going into my 4th year at Parsons School of Design, living in the East Village. Growing up in California I babysat for several families with children of different age ranges. I developed a love for children and being able to help families! I’m always happy to be an extra set of hands around the house and help families wherever needed. Addition to babysitting, my first job was a gymnastics coach for kids of all ages. In my free time I enjoy reading, working out, and going on long walks to enjoy the city!

$28 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Richmond Hill, NY

Hi families! I’m a 30-year-old, reliable, energetic, and experienced sitter transitioning from a corporate career back to grad school for clinical psychology. I have been caring semi-regularly for children since I was 12 years old. I grew up with four siblings—two of whom are 12 years younger than me—and I played an active role in helping raise them. That hands-on experience continued through college and my corporate working life here in NYC with dozens of families (new to UrbanSitter, previously used HelloSitter). It has also recently come full circle as I’ve supported my siblings with their own babies, helping with everything from the sensitive postpartum newborn stage to chasing active toddlers. After several years in the corporate tech world, I’ve left to pursue my master’s degree. This schedule change allows me to return to what I genuinely love: hanging out with kids. I bring the “adult” reliability of a former professional (punctual, communicative, safety-conscious) mixed with the warmth and energy of a seasoned aunt/uncle. I am comfortable with all ages, confident with bedtime routines, and happy to help with homework or light meal prep. Looking forward to meeting your family! Note: I built the majority of my career in journalism, and I love tutoring if any kids need help with their homework or college essays!

“Mara is so wonderful. Very responsive, capable, warm, communicative… and my kids immediately liked her. ”

Sierra $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Sierra, and I am a graduate of NYU's Tisch School of The Arts Drama program (2024) with experience with caring for children from 1-10 years of age in the past. I’m now a professional actor and filmmaker on top of providing childcare. I have previously worked as a tour guide for my hometown's history museum which worked primarily with school groups. Thus, I have a lot of experience with large groups of elementary aged children. I have also performed children's theatre in the past. I am proud to be from a teaching family—with family members who work in the Department of Education in CA, public school teaching, and are professors at top universities around the world. Similarly, I have provided ACT and SAT English instruction in the past for high school students and scored a 34 in English and a 35 in Reading on the ACT. Including my theatre experience, I also speak Mandarin (intermediate). My hobbies include film photography, cooking (I was an apprentice at a two-star Michelin restaurant), hiking, exploring historical sites, and studying philosophy. I believe in the importance in helping nurture a child's empathy and their skills to later be a fully functioning adult. I believe that it is more important than ever for children to be able to express themselves and have someone to listen to them. I would be happy and honored to be someone who can help your child feel heard. I hope that in turn it would inspire them to be someone who reaches out to others as well.

Alexandra $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Alex and I’m currently a college student at the New School. I have been babysitting for the past three years for children around the ages of five to twelve. I also have experience in tutoring children in reading and writing. I’m also an art student so if your child has any interest in art I’d be more than happy to nurture their interest in teaching them and taking them to art museums. I also have experience in caring for cats and reptiles. So if you have either I’d be willing to care for them in anyway they need.
