Hi! I’m a dedicated childcare provider who just moved back to New York after spending the last four years teaching early learners (ages 3–6) in Krakow, Poland. I absolutely love working with kids and bring a lot of patience, creativity, and calm energy to my time with them. I’m also currently earning my master’s in education through the University of Glasgow. My goal is to create a fun, safe, and cozy environment where your child feels happy and supported. I’m always happy to help however I can — can’t wait to meet your family!
“*updating as of 1/13/26: we have continued to use Danielle regularly since we first met her and are BEYOND delighted to have found her. She is amazing with our son, he is SO excited to see her, and she's super reliable - you would be lucky to have Danielle watch your children! :) They go to the park, she prepares his meals, and I really appreciate that she plays with him / is on "his level" the entire time - they have a blast and he is genuinely excited for his "friend" to come over and play. 10/10 recommend! I am delighted to recommend Danielle as a reliable, responsible, warm and dedicated caregiver! I connected with Danielle through Urban Sitter and she was super responsive / warm / organized in our initial correspondence - I then spoke with a mom in Poland who Danielle had worked for in the past who spent 30 minutes on the phone with me and could not recommend Danielle highly enough (she had cared for 3 of her sons) - we met Danielle in person last Friday and spent a few hours watching our 1.5 year old and he had the BEST time. Danielle was super calm, loving, play-oriented and very responsive to all of our directions / instructions. She took him out for a walk, prepared his dinner, and gave him lots of attention / love / play - he was in GREAT spirits when we came home. We have decided to hire Danielle on a recurring basis to watch our toddler at least 1-2 times per week. I definitely recommend hiring Danielle and we can't wait to work with her again (and feel so lucky to have found her!).”
I'm Camila, new to NYC and looking for babysitter opportunities! I'm a caring and experienced babysitter with a strong background working with children of all ages. I've been babysitting for years, including supporting a child with special needs, and I'm comfortable adapting to different needs and personalities. I've also worked as a Spanish teacher for kids, which I love incorporating into fun, engaging activities, and have experience in a daycare setting managing multiple children at once. I love working with children even in my professional career, where I’ve had the opportunity to work closely with child actors, producing, directing, and helping them train their performance. This has strengthened my ability to guide kids with patience, creativity, and structure. I can care for dogs/cats and light housekeeping and organizational tasks and errands. I'm patient, reliable, and truly enjoy creating a safe, positive environment where kids can learn and have fun.
Hello!! I live in Midtown East!! I’m a mom. I’m very active! I’ve raised an incredible young woman who is living in England. I have spent years taking care of babies, toddlers, kids, tweens, teens. Being a mom is a hard job but I love it! I love spending time with kids/babies and playing and teaching them. I can email you references from jobs that I had before and after this app if you’d like. Looking forward to meeting your family.
“Gaby has been a great addition to our family. Within minutes of meeting our 6 month old, she was sitting on the floor, playing with him. She talks to him throughout the day and keeps him happy and entertained. She's incredibly aware of his needs for sleep, food, and fun. She's also respectful of my wishes for caring for him. Gaby is also a tremendous help around the house, helping with keeping our counters, tabletops, and floors clean! She's easy to communicate with and flexible with start times. She's always on time and very dependable. So happy we have her!”
I am a recent college graduate who loves working with children, spending time outdoors, and supporting families in my community! I have been nannying consistently throughout college and beyond, and I genuinely enjoy building relationships with children and helping create a safe, fun, and supportive environment for them. I have experience caring for children of various ages, tutoring, and helping with homework. I am happy to provide academic support as needed, and I am almost fluent in Spanish! Special Needs Experience: I have extensive experience working with children with special needs and feel very confident supporting children with a variety of abilities and challenges. I have worked as an aquatic therapist and taught swim lessons to children with various disabilities. In high school, I also served as a social coach, helping students with homework, social skills, and job skills. During college, I volunteered with a program serving children experiencing homelessness through an after-school program, where I helped with homework, served dinner, and organized fun activities. Swimming & Safety: I have five years of lifeguarding experience, hold a CPR certification, and have taught swim lessons to children ranging from one to eighteen years old. I am passionate about water safety and feel comfortable working with children of different ages and skill levels. Pet Care: I have loved dogs my entire life and volunteered at a dog shelter for many years. I am comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and breeds, including both timid and energetic dogs. I am also comfortable caring for cats and providing overnight pet sitting. Household Help & Cleaning: I am happy to help with household chores and cleaning as needed. I gained valuable cleaning and organizational experience while working in a women's locker room at a fitness club, where I was responsible for maintaining a clean and welcoming environment. I also worked at Starbucks, where I enjoyed customer support tasks such as cleaning tables, washing dishes, and restocking supplies. I am comfortable taking on a variety of household tasks when provided with the appropriate supplies and instructions. Overall, I am a caring, dependable, and adaptable person who loves helping families wherever I can. I would love the opportunity to support your family, whether that means caring for your children, helping with homework, assisting around the house, or looking after your pets!

Hi! I’m Aubrey. Nice to meet you! I’ve lived in Brooklyn for over three years now and currently live in Gowanus. Before moving to NYC for my day job, I spent an incredible year and a half as a live-in au pair in London after graduating from college. While an au pair, I looked after two kids—1.5 y/o girl and a 4 y/o boy—which gave me lots of hands-on experience from morning routines, school drop-offs and pick-ups, and outings to parks and museums, to evening babysitting. I loved my time with the kids, and so continuing to babysit alongside my day job here in NYC. Outside of work, I love staying active and spending time outdoors. I ran the NYC Marathon last fall, and when I’m not running around the neighborhood, I love cooking and spending time with friends and family.
