Hi! My name is Sam, and I’m 22 years old. I’m currently a college student pursuing a career as a paramedic. I’ve been working as a nanny and babysitter for nearly four years, and I truly love caring for children. I enjoy doing crafts, baking, and going on little adventures that make learning fun and engaging. Creating a safe, positive, and happy environment for kids is very important to me. I’m also a big animal lover and have three pets of my own!
“Sam has worked with our family for several years and has been truly wonderful. She’s helped care for our two children since they were very young and our kids absolutely love her. She is always dependable and such a kind person. Our kids are always out on fun activities around the city with Sam, and they love spending time with her. Even as our kids have grown, she’s still an active part of our lives. We trust her completely and would highly recommend her to any family.”
Hi there! My name is Lindy and I’m a 26-year-old artist and textile-maker living in Brooklyn. I graduated cum laude from NYU three years ago where I studied mental health with a focus on children and adolescents. I am passionate about early childhood, and this fall, I’ll be back in school working towards my masters degree in art therapy. In the mean time, I’m looking for part-time nanny work and regular babysitting opportunities! :) I adore children and have been babysitting since an early age. In addition, I have experience working as a teacher’s assistant at my local temple, a day care assistant, and as an intern at a children’s arts camp in Brooklyn. In total, I have over 5 years of experience caring for children aged 3 months to 12+. I've spent the past three years since graduating college nannying part-time. One of my previous nanny families described me as “kind, sensitive, attentive, and simply a lovely human being…who has very much become a part of our family.” I am fully vaccinated and boosted as well as CPR and First Aid certified. Let me know if you’d like to speak to my references!
“Lindy helped us out last minute when our full-time caregiver had a family emergency. She was calm, kind and mature and easygoing about our toddler being in a cranky mood. Our 5 year old also had fun playing with her. ”
I am a friendly, detail-oriented Bushwickite with 8 years of experience caring for and supervising children between 1 and 7 years old! I also have 10+ years of experience caring for cats and dogs with various medical and environmental needs :) 🦴
“Maria is communicative & flexible. We're very happy to be working with her!”
Hi! I’m Teonnie, a college student. I’m great with kids of all ages, especially school-age, and can help with homework, reading, and fun activities. I’ve spent a lot of time caring for kids in my family and with friends, and I’m committed to providing a safe, reliable, and fun environment for your family. CPR certification is planned, and I’d love to help!
“Teonnie was an amazing babysitter. She arrived early, was very accommodating, and extremely responsible. Jaxon felt comfortable with her right away and genuinely loved playing with her. She made him feel safe and happy, which in turn made me feel comfortable leaving him in her care. She was dependable and reliable, and I would absolutely recommend her to any family.”
Hello! I’m Naomi, a recent college grad from NYU and someone who loves spending time with children. I received my BFA in Drama and Film from NYU, so I am quite the creative person, and love doing dramatic play, music, and various world-building activities with younger children. Throughout college, I became increasingly interested in childhood development, and took many Childhood and Adolescent Mental Studies (CAMS) classes. These classes allowed me to learn more about the early development process in infants, children, and adolescents, which further my interest in early childhood education. I worked with Jumpstart while I was at NYU - a program that provided preschool aged children in underfunded schools more opportunities to learn reading and comprehension skills. I worked as a Corps Member, but learned the most as a Team Leader my senior year. As a TL, I worked with a team of corps members to plan session plans, find engaging ways to interact with children and increase their reading and comprehension skills, guide trainings and reviews of best practices for storybook readings and vocabulary lessons, and much more. I lead team meetings, prepared different effective activities, and fostered a positive learning environment. This being said, I do have a lot of experience working with 3-5 year olds in an educational setting, but also have worked with families with children ranging from 1 year to 10 years old. I myself am also an aunt to my lovely niece and nephew, and watched over them from when they were infants until them now being 3 and 1 1/2, respectively. Currently, I am the Lead Babysitter at Chelsea Piers Fitness in Flatiron. I love going on walks, doing activities, arts and crafts, and finding different ways to engage with children. I can also do light housekeeping and prep snacks/meals. I also have worked with several families outside of Urban Sitter, and can give you references if you would like :) Thank you for reading - good luck on your search!
“Naomi was great! Responded quickly and was punctual. Would definitely hire her again!”

"Caitlin was awesome and jumped right in to chaperone four girls (10, 9, 8 and 6) at a family wedding (they were bridesmaids) and she was very helpful with the event as well as taking them home and putting them to bed."
Lila P., parent

"McKenna was great with our 3 year old son! She came prepared with a box of fun activities and handled playing, dinner, and bedtime seamlessly... and it was all at our hotel while we were in town for a wedding. Thank you McKenna!"
