Our management team is comprised of four hardworking friends that joined together to spread their philosophy of active, engaged childcare.

We maintain a pre-screened network of New York’s most qualified, experienced and well-educated sitters, mentors and tutors, eliminating the need to sift through masses of applicants to find your perfect match.

SmartSitters hail from top-flight colleges, are fluent in 13 different languages, and – most importantly – are devoted to sharing their passions with children. We carefully select the most experienced, most reliable, and most engaging individuals to join our network and aim to rediscover 'babysitting' as an active engagement of a child’s imagination rather than as a passive enterprise of occupying the child’s time.
