Julia 5 reviews
$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 8 families in Maspeth, NY

Hi!! My name is Julia and I am a recent college graduate and young professional with over 10 years of babysitting experience. During college, I ran my own babysitting company linking college students with local families, onboarding a network of 35 college sitters. I work with families of all sizes and have experience with children aged 1+. I truly love kids and enjoy helping them learn, grow, and have fun in a safe environment. Whether it's singing, dancing, acting, playing pretend, helping with homework, or simply keeping things running smoothly, I'm dedicated to making every experience positive for both the kids and the parents. I am a former sleepaway camp counselor and group leader for girls aged 10-14, and taught dance to children at my local studio for 5 years throughout high school. I’m extremely reliable, caring, and excited to support you and your family! Feel free to reach out - id be happy to hop on the phone as well as send along excellent references! :)

“Julia was amazing. Was able to travel around the city with us and our son. And was fantastic with him through bedtime. Would 100 percent recommend. ”

Emily 1 review
$21 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Emily. I grew up in New Hampshire and have lived in New York City for the past eight years. I have over 15 years of childcare experience, beginning with neighborhood babysitting when I was 11 and continuing throughout high school, college, and adulthood. By day, I work in clinical research at Mount Sinai Hospital, where I coordinate patient care and clinical trials. My work has taught me the importance of responsibility, communication, and creating a calm, supportive environment—qualities that I bring to childcare as well. I have experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to teenagers, and am comfortable supervising multiple children at once. Whether we’re doing crafts, playing outside, helping with homework, preparing meals, or winding down for bedtime, I strive to create a safe and engaging environment where children feel comfortable and parents feel confident. I am also comfortable caring for pets, have experience with overnight care, and can provide excellent references from families in both New York City and New England. I look forward to meeting your family!

“Emily has babysat for us intermittently over the past 5 years for our two children (now 7 and 4 years old). Emily has always been one of our favorite babysitters! She has been extremely responsible, communicative, and our children adore her! She is also smart, kind, and lovely to work with.”

Booked by 3 families in Maspeth, NY

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!”

I'm a dog lover with a special 14-year-old rescue who joined my family at six months. Since my own dog isn’t very mobile anymore, I’m hoping to fulfill my love for dogs and get more exercise by walking others in my neighborhood.
