I Only choose sitters who have a background check, multiple reviews, and repeat bookings. It's best to post a job and let interested sitters reply to you. Good luck! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/babysitters-in-nyc#post-2570873 Mon, 20 Jun 2016 15:34:53 +0000 teawithpaloma 2570873@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Also, my friends in college worked for Sensible Sitters and they were all very reliable people! <a href="http://sensiblesitters.com/" rel="nofollow">http://sensiblesitters.com/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/babysitters-in-nyc#post-2570872 Mon, 20 Jun 2016 15:34:11 +0000 teawithpaloma 2570872@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This service looked great: <a href="http://www.ramshackleglam.com/2016/05/02/sitter-in-the-city/" rel="nofollow">http://www.ramshackleglam.com/2016/05/02/sitter-in-the-city/</a></p> <p>By the way, I used a babysitting service when I was in Sydney Australia for two nights with my 17 month old and it went great! I am all for doing this! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/babysitters-in-nyc#post-2570796 Mon, 20 Jun 2016 13:58:49 +0000 SweetiePie 2570796@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hi! Let me know if week nights or weekend, and location of hotel, and I can maybe hook you up ;-)<br /> I have a 21 month old and a couple sitters we use regularly for date nights. He's always asleep when they are there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/babysitters-in-nyc#post-2570781 Mon, 20 Jun 2016 13:48:23 +0000 BSB 2570781@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't have any real suggestions, but I've heard good things about UrbanSitter. I heard it's better than Care.com. </p> <p>It's available here in Seattle Not sure if it's available in NYC. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/babysitters-in-nyc#post-2570772 Mon, 20 Jun 2016 13:38:55 +0000 Nutella 2570772@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are visiting NYC for the first time soon and taking our toddler (2.5 years). Hoping to pop out for a date night or two after he is asleep so we can catch a show or nice dinner (if the fates allow)! Does anyone have any pointers as to where I can find a date night babysitter relatively last minute, or if anyone has a recommendation they wouldn't mind sharing?? </p> <p>Any help much appreciated! Thanks so much! :happy: </p>
