$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Harrison, NJ

Hello, My name is Ms.K , and I’m a dedicated, caring, and reliable nanny with 7 years of experience supporting families and nurturing children from infancy through school age. I’m passionate about creating a safe, fun, and structured environment where children can grow, learn, and explore their interests. I take pride in building strong, trusting relationships with both children and parents. My approach balances warmth and playfulness with clear communication and consistency. Whether it’s helping with homework, organizing creative activities, or maintaining routines, I always strive to make each day positive and enriching. I’m certified in CPR/First Aid and have experience with infants/toddlers/school-age K-12. I align my developmental milestones for the children with the CDC. I am experienced in feeding, change, tidying, burping , helping with the sleep schedule, reading to them, speaking to them about colors and shapes, helping them to crawl by giving them toys to reach towards to stimulate their development. I have also spent several years in the classroom setting as an assistant program manager for after school scholars. Families describe me as patient, dependable, and proactive — someone who truly becomes part of the family. I look forward to bringing my skills, energy, and genuine love for children to a welcoming household. I look forward to connecting with you!

“Keionyi has been a nanny for our three boys on and off over the past three years, and she’s been such a huge help to our family. She’s great with the kids — always patient, dependable, and fun to be around. She helps with light cleaning, the boys’ laundry, meal prep, and school drop-offs and pick-ups. She’s also really good at keeping them busy with activities they actually enjoy. We’ve been so lucky to have her, and I’d highly recommend her to any family looking for someone who is caring and reliable.”

I enjoyed playing with the babies, feeding them, assisting with naps, taken them outside and engaging with parents at pick up time. At both positions, I’ve also contributed to maintaining a clean and organized environment by assisting with tasks like sweeping, mopping, and organizing.

"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."
