Denisse $32 per hour for 1 child

I am an experienced bilingual (Spanish-English) caregiver with a strong background working with children from newborns to 10–11 years old. I have worked as a nanny and au pair in the U.S., and I also have experience as a swim, diving, and gymnastics instructor, as well as organizing children’s events and activities. My background in Law in Mexico has helped me develop strong organizational skills, responsibility, and professionalism. I moved to the U.S. to pursue personal and professional growth, and I take my work very seriously. I am patient, energetic, structured, and deeply caring. I enjoy creating safe, nurturing, and engaging environments where children can grow emotionally and developmentally.

Cenae $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Cenae 😊 I’m a caring, dependable nanny with over four years of hands-on childcare experience, and working with children has always been a big part of my life. I’ve cared for kids ranging from infants to school-aged children, and I truly enjoy being involved in their day-to-day routines, growth, and development. I have strong experience with infants and toddlers, including bottle feeding, diaper changes, supervised naps, tummy time, and engaging play. I’m very attentive to babies’ cues and focus on creating a calm, nurturing environment where they feel safe, comfortable, and happy. Families I’ve worked with often describe me as patient, gentle, and naturally good with children. In addition to my professional nannying experience, I come from a large family with several younger siblings, so caring for kids has always come naturally to me. I take my role seriously and treat every child I care for with the same love and attention I would want for my own family. I value open communication with parents and enjoy working with families who see their nanny as a trusted part of their child’s care. I’m someone parents can feel confident relying on, and I always strive to create a positive, supportive environment for both children and parents. I’m currently looking for a part-time or full-time position and would love to connect with families looking for attentive, loving care for their little ones.

Emerita D 2 reviews
$23 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Kearny, NJ

Hello, my name is Emerita. I am 36 years old. I have two children, 16 and 11 years I love children I am very sweet and patient with them I like to read books, play, take them to the park. I have 3 years of experience and worked with 2 families, in a daycare also I can help with light cleaning . I have a driver's license and CPR&AID

“Emerita is an amazing nanny, and our family very fortunate to have found her. Our son had only known one nanny for all 3.5 years of his life and at that age was not taking too kindly to new people. However, when his first nanny went home overseas, Emerita was able to quickly and successfully take over what was quite a demanding job at the time: 6 days/week, 10 hours a day watching after our very active son including extensive trips away from the house at parks, beaches, the city, etc. Highly trustworthy, very friendly, and very adaptable to children....we strongly recommend Emerita for anyone seeking a nanny who is willing to adapt to your schedule and manage highly demanding toddlers.”

"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."
