Weronika $25 per hour for 1 child

My name is Niki and I’m from Poland. I’m a babysitter with over 10 years of experience. Currently I live in New Jersey which I love. I’ve been working with kids of all ages but I have the most experience with infants and toddlers. I completed 3,5 years as an Au Pair in America. I absolutely love working with kids and it feels natural to me. I speak Polish, English, Serbian, Croatian and learning Spanish and Italian! I love languages and geography and would love to teach your kids something about the world. I like to call myself a traveler, because I’ve been traveling my whole life and it’s my biggest passion. As a live in nanny I’ve been taking care of 5 kids (with three different families) of ages: 3 months, 7 months, 1 yo, 2yo and 3yo - all in America. In my home country I cared for multiple kids aged 1-10 years old. I am a very pro-active and responsible person who you can trust with your kids. I know how to care for them, bathe, change diapers, put down for naps, prepare food, play and all the things you need.

I’m also a certified lifeguard, trained in First Aid and CPR, which reinforces my commitment to ensuring every child’s safety and well-being at all times. My native language is Spanish, and I truly enjoy sharing my language and culture with the families I support.

Lily $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Lily and I am a recent graduate of Bennington College where I studied Visual Arts and Poetry. I am offering child care, pet care, and household services! I love being a babysitter. I took care of the same family all throughout high school (4 years) watching two toddler-aged into kid-aged children and a dog. My responsibilities included helping with homework, doing crafts, transportation to/from extracurricular activities, walking the dog, and playing by the pool. For the past two summers I have worked as a camp counselor for ages ranging 5-12 years old. Both being out in nature, I have experience supervising children at lakes and oceans, leading hiking, and creating/teaching arts and crafts activities. I feel passionate about fostering creativity within kids through art! I have 10+ years experience volunteering with children with developmental and behavioral special needs. I am trained in behavior management and feel equipped to handle most cases. I am offering pet and household services as well. I have grown up with multiple cats and dogs so am used to animals and love them! I can do household tasks as well including cooking, cleaning, and running errands. I have experience caring for plants. I am First-Aid and CPR certified!

"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."
