Booked by 1 family in Garfield, NJ

Hello! Sarai at your service! I’m a CCNY Fall 2020 Alumni with a BA Business Administration. While I chose this degree, I’ve developed a true passion for education. For the past two years, I’ve been employed full time at a school (staff role) and use up much of my free time to book gigs during weekends or weekdays (afternoon/evening times). I think of myself as a super fun, loving & energetic babysitter, but also, reliable, responsible & compassionate. As a perk: If you would like for me to teach your child a bit of Spanish, kindly let me know. I would be more than happy to do so. Be it a special occasion or just a night away from the kids, I'll make sure to take great care of them! Feel free to ask any questions if any. Happy to answer them all.

“Saraai was excellent. Our son really enjoyed spending time with her. We would book her again.”

Booked by 1 family in Garfield, NJ

Hi! My name is Aliya — I recently left my job and am looking to take a break from the corporate world. I’m 27 and spent my summers throughout high school and college nannying for several families, caring for children ranging from 8 months to 10 years old. I also worked as a camp counselor for several years with kids in grades K–12. Most recently, I nannied as needed for a family throughout last year here in NYC. I’m warm, responsible, friendly, and genuinely love working with kids. Happy to pass along references if helpful. Looking forward to connecting!

Booked by 6 families in Garfield, NJ

Hi I am Chris! I am 25 years old and I live in Hawthorne, New Jersey. I attended Rowan University where I graduated with a Graphic Design degree. I love working with children. I have grown up taking care of the younger ones around me. I come from a family where most of my siblings are teachers in schools so I am around working with kids a lot. I have also worked a lot with babies and the younger ages so I know what to do to take care of them as well. I just want to be able to ensure a day/night free of worry for you to enjoy while the kids still have fun too! I really hope we can make this work. Looking to hear back from you!

"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."
