Booked by 3 families in Edison, NJ

I’ve been caring for children since I was twelve years old, and with over 25 years of experience, I’ve had the joy of working with infants, toddlers, and children up to their teenage years. Babysitting has always been more than just a job for me — it’s something I truly love. I’m known for being patient, loving, and dependable. I always strive to create a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where kids feel comfortable and happy. Whether it’s reading stories, helping with meals, keeping up with housework, or maintaining a consistent routine, I’m happy to help with whatever is needed to make your day easier. I have open availability and am flexible with my schedule — I can work days, evenings, or overnight as needed. While I currently don’t drive, transportation will not be an issue, and I always make sure to arrive on time and ready to work. I would be grateful for the opportunity to care for your children and support your family’s needs. Thank you for considering me for this position — I’d love to meet and talk more about how I can help. [removed] feel free to text me first then call me so we can talk and of course message me too!

Letícia $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello families! I'm Leticia, a dedicated and nurturing nanny with over five years of experience working with children of all ages. First of my 5 years I worked with kids at school, learning a lot about child development, until I came to the US and started working with child care exclusively. My background as a teacher has equipped me with valuable skills in creating engaging and educational activities tailored to each child's needs. I believe in creating a warm and loving environment where children can thrive. My approach is patient and understanding, allowing kids to express themselves and explore their interests. I have a knack for engaging activities that spark imagination, whether it's through arts and crafts, storytelling, or outdoor adventures. I'm committed to a positive and supportive atmosphere where children feel safe and valued. I look forward to bringing joy, creativity, and care to your family!

"Johanna is AMAZING! My two boys love her - she does everything from amazing arts & crafts, to helping with homework, to getting them playing outside! She also drives them and does everything involved with after school activities: packing snacks, getting the right gear, etc."

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."

"Caitlin has been such a lifesaver for our family. We hired Caitlin to help with the after school routine. The kids took to her instantly. She does it all - school pick ups, dinners, baths, lunch making, clean up, etc. She has really helped make a busy time so much easier for us."
