Booked by 2 families in Clifton, NJ

Hi! My name is Selena! I am 23 years old! I’m an experienced, dependable caregiver who truly enjoys creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment for children. I have previously worked at a summer camp since 2018 and have babysat children ranging from newborns to 13 years old. I grew up with three adopted younger siblings, now ages 13, 16, and 17 but have watched over them since they were born. Growing up with my siblings has also given me years of hands-on experience helping care for children at different stages. I am CPR certified, have my own reliable car, and would love the opportunity to bring patience, energy, and care to your family. I currently work in a ABA classroom!

“Selena was great with our ten month old son! He took to her quickly. She communicated with us actively and enthusiastically. ”

Booked by 1 family in Clifton, NJ

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.”

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."
