Booked by 206 families in Fairview, NJ

Hello there! I’m Lily, and I am experienced with children of all ages. I graduated with a MA in psychology from the New School for Social Research. Prior to being a childcare provider, I worked at a nonprofit that served high-risk adolescents. It made me very attuned to detail and comfortable in fast-paced, high stress environments—qualities that I believe will come in handy when caring for children. I babysat for years in NYC and SF through college and grad school. I have recently returned to UrbanSitter for occasional evening / nighttime work. CANCELLATION POLICY As compensation for lost time due to last minute cancellations, I expect 50% of the original booking amount for cancellations with less than 48 hours notice and the full amount for same day cancellations. Payable via Venmo or Zelle.

Hello NYC (and traveling) Families, I have 17+ years of childcare experience, including several years working in NYC charter schools. I am currently attending graduate school full-time. I'm CPR/AED and First Aid certified and up to date on all immunizations. What I love most about childcare is helping children build confidence, develop new skills, and discover their interests. In my free time, I enjoy reading, trying new restaurants, hiking, and traveling. If you have any questions, feel free to message me or schedule a FaceTime. Happy to connect! :)

Hello everyone, ********Thank you for considering me for a booking request. However, I must request that you refrain from submitting a booking until you have had the opportunity to communicate with me. As a substitute teacher, I am currently unable to accommodate short-notice bookings.********* In my free time, I enjoy nature walks with my family, baking, circuit-based crafts, solving puzzles and Sudoku, making silly songs with my kids, and reading. These activities allow me to keep kids entertained without screens. I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in biology from Montclair State University. Plus, I’ve been teaching online for over five years, and I’ve also worked as a professional nanny and in daycare centers. I am delighted to provide childcare and nurturing for families. I can drive children to parks, museums, ice skating arenas, and sports practices at the YMCA, JCC, and various facilities. I am highly engaging with children of all ages, even when managing multiple children.

Hey families! I’m Nia, 22 years old from The Bronx. For work I am a teacher’s assistant working my way up to become a full time teacher! Working with kids gives me a sense of purpose. I love being able to give advice to a young mind who is building their way up in the world or just being a friend and someone they can enjoy their time with. I am a pretty lively and active person with lots of energy to keep everyone happy and entertained :). The ability to connect, and teach are at the core of my work along with the mental well-being of the children I work with. I hope to share these values with the families I meet in the near future. <3

So sweet, energetic, communicative, and my boys loved her! Will have her back!!
