Hi! I’m Chris, a Cornell University graduate and Youth Engagement Specialist with over 10 years of experience working with children of all ages, from infants to teens. I also have younger siblings who are over 10 years younger than me, and I helped care for them throughout their upbringing. I specialize in evening, weekend, and date-night childcare, and I enjoy creating a calm, safe, and engaging environment for children while parents are out. I’m dependable, easygoing, and comfortable with bedtime routines, meals, playtime, and light household support as needed. I’d love to connect and see if I’d be a good fit for your family. Feel free to view my intro video to learn more about me, and don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions!
Hi! My name is Anisa. I work evenings and take classes part-time in Midtown. I am offering child care services to families. With my current work/class schedule, I am generally available Wednesdays until midday (around 3:30p) and on weekends (Saturday/Sunday). I’ve been babysitting for my family since 2024. I have experience watching an eight-year-old child (now a preteen) and a toddler (three years old). I enjoy the arts, acting, dancing, singing, playing all kinds of games, going for walks outside in nature, and anything that stimulates the imagination. I am familiar with tasks such as homework help, managing medication, bathroom hygiene and potty maintenance, feeding, changing, bathing, and picking up/driving from school. I am not currently Adult/Child/Infant CPR & First Aid certified but am willing and actively looking into getting my certification asap. I can also help with basic household chores if necessary. And I grew up around dogs, cats, birds (parrots) and fish, so I am comfortable working around or with common household pets if there are any in the house with your kids. I am Pet First Aid & CPR certified as well.
“Anisa is one of the most thoughtful and caring people I've ever worked with - consistently kind, considerate and even-tempered.”
Hi! I’m Dana — a NYC-based babysitter who’s new to UrbanSitter, but with over a year of part-time childcare experience for a family here in the city. I currently still work with this family on a salaried basis and am looking to pick up occasional babysitting and part-time work. The family I work with has three children, currently ages 7–12, and I’m comfortable caring for children ages 3 and up. My background also includes teaching summer camp, leading a children’s choir at church, and handling after-school pick-ups and daily routines. I’ve lived in New York City for 8 years and know the city very well. I’m extremely comfortable navigating neighborhoods, transportation, school schedules, and the general pace of city life, which helps me stay calm, organized, and reliable. In addition to childcare, I bring a wide range of professional experience, including working as a MainStage performer for Disney Tokyo and at Trader Joe’s. These roles strengthened my communication skills, dependability, and ability to stay positive, focused, and adaptable in fast-paced environments. I’m upbeat, punctual, and very engaged, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids — whether that’s doing creative activities, supporting routines, or being a steady, caring presence. I’m comfortable caring for multiple children and pride myself on clear, thoughtful communication with parents. I’d love to connect! If you’d like a reference from the family I currently work for, feel free to reach out — I’m happy to share. Please message me with any questions or to set up an interview. I look forward to meeting you and your kids!
Hello! My name is Davidsa. I’m a caring, responsible, and organized person who enjoys helping families with child care, pet care, and household needs. I have several years of experience working with children, managing homes, and caring for pets of all kinds. I take pride in creating a safe, positive, and well-organized environment where everyone feels comfortable and supported. I offer a combination of child care, pet care, and household services, depending on your family’s needs. I can provide flexible scheduling for regular help or occasional assistance. I love reading stories, doing crafts, playing board games, outdoor activities like going to the park or beach, cooking simple recipes together, and helping with creative or learning projects. I can help with tutoring and homework, especially in reading, writing, and science. I also enjoy cooking healthy meals and snacks for kids. I love creative activities such as painting, dancing, and storytelling, which make playtime both fun and educational. I am CPR/First Aid certified. I also have a strong understanding of child safety and development.
“Davidsa was truly an incredible nanny to our daughter and became such an important part of our family. She is loving, reliable, patient, responsible, and genuinely treats the children she cares for as her own. She was always taking our daughter on adventures, finding activities for them to do, and helping her learn and explore the world around her. She is bilingual in English and Spanish, incredibly intelligent and capable, and one of those rare caregivers who never needs to be micromanaged. She just knows what needs to be done and does it. I trusted her completely with my daughter, which is the highest compliment I could possibly give someone. We only had to part ways because our family moved out of state, and saying goodbye to her was genuinely one of the hardest parts of leaving New York. Any family would be incredibly lucky to have Davidsa caring for their children. We love her and recommend her wholeheartedly.”
