Hi, I’m Kate! I am a first-year Masters in Social Work student at NYU living in Brooklyn. I graduated from Vanderbilt in 2021 with a degree in Cognitive Studies and African-American and Diaspora Studies. I’m just getting started on Urban Sitter, so I’m happy to provide references from families I’ve worked with in the past. I have 11 years of babysitting experience with kids of all ages, genders, and personality styles. I have experience with kids with Downs Syndrome, autism, and other special needs. This has included children with aggression and other severe behavioral problems, and I am confident in my abilities to meet these patterns with patience and compassion. I love kids and empowering them to practice autonomy while also being someone they can depend on. I’m looking for part-time babysitting opportunities during weekday evenings and weekends! I’m looking forward to meeting you!
Hi! My name is Margot and I'm currently a School Counseling Ed.M. student at Teachers College, Columbia University. I am offering child care, pet care, and household services. I love working with children and have experience as a babysitter, elementary school literacy tutor, camp counselor for special needs children, and recreation assistant at a children's hospital. In all of these roles, I have used my creativity, empathy, and patience to engage children in play and learning, while maintaining a safe environment. I have babysat for both neurotypical and neurodivergent kids, providing flexible care depending on their needs and developmental levels. I am also happy to assist with homework, projects, and other assignments. I love crafts, music, science experiments, and anything that involves being imaginative and having fun. I also can help with household chores and errands, and I am happy to work with families with pets, as I am a big animal lover!
Hello! My name is Jasmine, and I’m currently a Psychology student. Although I’m a college student, I have a flexible schedule and can frequently accommodate families needs. I love working with children and supporting their growth in a safe, fun, and nurturing environment. I have been babysitting since 2021 and have experience caring for children ranging from newborns to 5 years old. Growing up in a large family, I was always surrounded by babies and young children, which helped me develop patience, responsibility, and a genuine love for childcare. I also enjoy creating engaging activities that encourage learning, development, and play. In addition to my childcare experience, I’m a big animal lover and comfortable caring for pets. I have both a dog and a cat and have over 8 years of experience helping care for animals. I am bilingual in English and Spanish, dependable, and always strive to create a positive experience for both children and parents.
