Azul 1 review
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Azul 💙 I’m originally from Argentina and I’ve been caring for children since I was 14. For the past two years, I’ve been living in New Jersey and working full-time with children of different ages, from infants and toddlers to school-aged kids, including children with special needs and ADHD. I’m active, patient, caring, and reliable. I’m comfortable with meals, diapers, naps, bath time, activities, school drop-offs/pick-ups, and driving. I speak Spanish and English and have a valid U.S. driver’s license. I’m currently looking for a full-time nanny position starting in November and would love to find a family I can build a long-term relationship with.

“I work full time, and spent a long time trying to find someone that I could really trust to work with my 3 children. When I found Azul I knew she was the best choice, she is amazing, managed all 3 kids, even on summer. She is patient and kind, a person that I consider part of my family, the kids love her so much.”

Booked by 9 families in Paramus, NJ

Hi! I'm Sarah, and I’m a part time graphic designer, but right now I mostly nanny! I've been babysitting since middle school as the oldest of the kids in my neighborhood. I'm Red Cross certified (so if there's ever a choking hazard or a boo boo I'll be to the rescue!) and I love working with children, especially multiple children at once because I love to see their dynamic. I also love answering kids' questions and helping them learn and grow as individuals. I treat them with respect and autonomy, which builds their confidence as well as their comfort with me as a new adult in their lives. I hope you think I'm right for you! I request that you and your children be fully vaccinated with the latest rounds of COVID vaccines, as I want to keep myself, my family, and the other children I care for safe. Thank 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."
