Hello, I'm Tiffany! I'm 29 years old from New Jersey. My childcare experience began with mommy-helping at age 12 then independently babysitting at age 17. I have traveled the tri-state area and worked with children all ages from infancy to teenagers. I have also worked with many individuals who had varying specials needs. I always give my all when I'm interacting with children, and my goal is to always leave the entire family feeling safe and happy! I am CPR/AED Certified, been fingerprinted by the state of New Jersey, have my own car and most importantly can supply excellent references! I work many jobs but I always have time to help new families for date night, parties, sick days, etc. Please feel free to reach out to me!

“Tiffany was absolutely amazing! She juggled two infants like it was no big deal! She is a super babysitter and I would recommend her with the highest level! She watched our babies at my sisters wedding! What a gem! I cannot wait to use her in the future if I’m ever in town again. Thanks Tiffany! You saved the day! ”

"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."
