Experienced and enthusiastic babysitter based in New York with a strong background working with children in different settings. I’ve been a cheerleading coach, worked in sports programs for kids, and I’ve also been a children’s party entertainer, leading group games, fun activities, dance moments, and making balloon figures that always make kids smile. I’m a patient, warm, and caring person who truly enjoys making children feel happy, safe, and understood. I love creating activities that include dancing, arts and crafts, creative play, and little learning moments. I’m also happy to help with homework and keep routines calm and organized. I easily adapt to each family’s rules, and I always communicate with kindness and respect. I’m comfortable caring for children ages 4+, and I’m bilingual in English and Spanish. I’m available for occasional babysitting, date nights, last-minute help, and afternoon or evening shifts. I am very aware that childhood is the most important stage of a person’s life, and I am happy to contribute positively to it. I would love to support your family and your children’s growth with care, respect, and joy.
Dear Urban sitter families, as a Nanny with an educational background in early childhood development and over ten years of experience caring for children ranging from 2.5 through age 16, I believe I can add a lot of value to your family. I began babysitting at an early age. I knew I always wanted to work with children, and I went to school to get an associate degree in early childhood development. During that time, I worked as a Child Care Assistant in Michigan, where I attended to the needs of over 25 children from 2.5 through age four. In my last role as a live-out Nanny for a family of three, I regularly provided after-school enrichment for the children, planned meals, organized games and activities and completed light housework such as dusting, mopping and sweeping. I excel at remaining calm in challenging situations and possess excellent communication, time management, and organizational skills. In addition to housework, I have comprehensive experience completing errands and cooking nutritious meals. I'm also certified in first aid/CPR ,love animals and I'm an excellent swimmer. Thank you for your time and consideration. With my unique skills, experience and passion for child care, I feel that I can make an excellent addition to your family . Please feel free to contact me!
(New profile - waiting on reviews - can provide references) Hello! My name is Caroline, and I'm a writer originally from Dallas, Texas now living in the North Williamsburg/South Greenpoint area. I recently graduated from NYU and have a flexible work schedule, so I’m available for occasional or regular babysitting! I grew up as the 2nd oldest child (firstborn daughter) in a LARGE, multi-home blended family with animals constantly around, so I've been looking after other kids (and pets) since I was a kid myself :) I absolutely love working with kids because every day brings something new and rewarding—whether it’s seeing a child achieve a milestone or simply sharing a laugh. I have 8 years of regular caregiving experience for other families in both Texas and New York City. I've worked with children from infancy to high school age, including children with special needs/disabilities. I'm well-versed in sibling dynamics and open to providing hands-on care for 2-3 children at a time -- potentially more depending on the ages of the children and/or in nanny-share situations. I started babysitting at 14 during my high school years, which I spent serving my community as a peer mentor and "PAL" (peers in assistance, leadership, & service) for children who had ongoing personal hardships, suffered recent traumatic events, and/or were new to the school. I started working with kids of varied cognitive disabilities in grade school as apart of a volunteer special education program, so I am comfortable working with children who have differentiating physical and/or mental functionalities. I believe that play is one of the best ways for kids to learn and grow, so I love creating fun, imaginative activities that engage kids while helping them develop new skills. I'm happy to help with homework (bonus: I'm trilingual) in any subject, to the best of my ability. I’m not a "passive" sitter - I love to keep kids engaged, and am committed to facilitating and maintaining their routines. I'm a big believer in bedtime stories, positivity, and patience. Other bonuses: I've cared for sick or wounded animals at home and volunteering at an animal sanctuary, and worked as a petsitter/dog-walker 10-15 hrs/wk while in college. Every child and home is unique. I want to be as attuned to their/your needs and preferences as possible, so please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or would like to schedule a call or meeting.
“Super warm, instantly connected with the boys, flexible when we unexpectedly needed her much longer, and kept us updated!! Thank you so much! Can’t wait to have her back!”
Hi! My name is Emma and I would love to be a caregiver to your wonderful kiddos! I’m a creative and imaginative personality with the inclination for caring for children. I grew up a dancer and pursuing that professionally now in the city, with the dream of being in the Ensemble of a Broadway show! I love that I can share this art and my profession with children, even teach them a few moves. I have 4+ years babysitting as well as dog sitting and I care dearly for the elderly. I’m open to several different scenarios including school pick up/drop off, after school tutoring, evening date night babysitting and so much more! I hope that I can be a part of the integral part of your children’s lives and make an impact in one way or another!
Hello , I bring a unique blend of patience, creativity, and professional childcare expertise. I have worked with children of all ages for over 8 years . I have held a sitter job for the last 5 years for children under the age of 3. I have worked substitute teacher in the NYC DOE and behavior technician, I founded Learning Ladder Innovations, a tutoring service that supports children with language development, academic enrichment, and confidence-building. I am CPR/First Aid certified and offer a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment that supports children’s emotional, social, and academic growth. I am also a mom myself , so I know the feeling of having someone safe and nurturing!!
