Hi, ********(Please don’t send a booking request before you first message me. I work as a substitute teacher, so I’m not available for short-notice bookings at this time.) ******* My name is Woodlyn, and I am currently a substitute teacher. I have been working with families and children for over a decade. I have always possessed a natural aptitude for caregiving and a profound passion for working with children. As a wife and mother, I hold a Bachelor of Science degree in biology from Montclair State University. I am characterized by my trustworthiness, responsibility, passion, and patience. Additionally, I am active and possess a high level of energy that children find endearing. I would be honored to provide childcare and nurturing for families. I am capable of taking children to various destinations, including parks, museums, ice skating arenas, and any sports practices (such as those offered by the YMCA, JCC, indoor, and outdoor facilities). I am highly engaging with children of all ages, even when managing multiple children simultaneously.
Hi! My name is Shimaine, but you can call me Shi (pronounced like “shy”). I’m a loving, fun, and patient caregiver with over 10 years of experience working with people of all ages. My journey started in middle school and high school, babysitting for families in my community. During undergrad, I worked for an on-call nanny agency, gaining even more hands-on experience with children of all ages. I later worked as a CNA and direct care provider, assisting individuals with daily living tasks, light housekeeping, and meal prep. When it comes to kids, I’m all about keeping them entertained and engaged. Whether it’s playing games, doing crafts, or coming up with creative ways to make daily routines more fun. I understand that every child is different, and I know how to connect with them on their level. Currently, I’m a Registered Behavior Technician and working toward my Behavior Analyst certification, so I have plenty of experience with structure, positive reinforcement, and making learning fun. As a dog owner, I’m comfortable with pets and happy to help in pet-friendly homes. I have a reliable vehicle, CPR certification, and a strong commitment to making life easier for families. Looking forward to helping out however I can!
“I've worked with and highly recommend Shi as a babysitter! As an RBT, they have exceptional experience working with children, including those with diverse needs. Their patience, creativity, and ability to keep kids engaged make them a fantastic caregiver. Parents can trust that their children are in safe, capable, and caring hands!”
Hello, My name is Vanessa, and I am a high school teacher. I taught language arts for 20 years and am currently in the discipline department at a high school. I have experience with children and pets, and I speak fluent Spanish and English. I have helped take care of my grandmother, so I can assist in taking care of an elderly person. I am organized, disciplined, and caring. I also have two dogs and a bird, so I am experienced in caring for animals.
Hi! I’m a caring, dependable, and patient caregiver with nearly five years of experience supporting children and families. I have worked as a Teacher Assistant in a daycare with children ages 18 months to 5 years, helping with daily routines, learning activities, behavior guidance, meals, and creating a safe, fun environment. As the oldest of four siblings, I also helped care for my younger brothers and sister from the time they were born. My youngest sibling is now 8 years old, giving me years of hands-on experience with infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. In addition, I have extensive experience working with children and families through New Jersey’s child welfare system, where I supported parents, monitored child safety, and connected families with resources. I’m bilingual in English and Spanish and have completed my Master’s in Social Work, along with Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) training. I believe in positive reinforcement, kindness, and building trusting relationships with every child. I’m happy to assist with homework, playtime, light meal preparation, bedtime routines, transportation, light housekeeping, and pet care. Families can count on me to be responsible, organized, compassionate, and dedicated to providing safe, nurturing, and reliable care.
Hello families! My name is Alyssa. I am 24 years old currently in Grad school for clinical mental health counseling. I work as a substitute teacher as well. I have been a nanny for another family for 4 years now. I am reliable, hard working, fun, energetic, patient, and loving. I love to plan fun activities for the kids and I to do together. I always go above and beyond. I have no problem organizing, doing kids laundry, tidying up, running errands or any of the household services you may need. I want to make your lives easier!
“Alyssa was fantastic! She cared for our three kids (ages 2, 4, and 10) and handled the range of ages and needs with ease. She was incredibly attentive, engaged the kids in play, and kept us updated with great communication throughout the evening. We felt completely at ease knowing they were in such capable hands. We’ll definitely be booking her again for future date nights if she’s available!”

"UrbanSitter is my go-to for quality sitters! I can book weeks ahead of time or easily find a same-day sitter when in a bind. I even hired a part-time nanny during a daycare transition. Customer service is helpful and babysitters respond in a timely manner."
