Booked by 7 families in Edgewater, NJ

I’m a dedicated and experienced nanny with over 12 years of hands-on experience caring for infants, toddlers, and young children. My background includes both private childcare and working as a paraprofessional educator, which gives me a strong understanding of child development, behavior management, and creating supportive, structured environments where children can thrive. I specialize in caring for infants and toddlers, including newborns, and I’m confident managing routines such as feeding, sleep training, and developmental play. I have experience caring for multiple children at once, including twins, and I’m comfortable balancing different needs while maintaining a calm, organized environment. I also have experience supporting children with varying developmental needs, including those with autism, and I take a patient, individualized approach to every child I work with. I enjoy creating engaging, age-appropriate activities that support learning through play, including sensory play, early literacy, art projects, and outdoor exploration. With my background in studio art, I love incorporating creativity into daily routines to keep children stimulated and excited to learn. Safety is always my top priority. I am First Aid certified, attentive to dietary restrictions and allergies, and experienced in maintaining clean, organized spaces. I’m also reliable with transportation, punctual, and respectful of each family’s routines, parenting style, and household expectations.

Booked by 17 families in Edgewater, NJ

Hi! My name is Rinelle and I am a senior at Hunter College. As an older sister to three siblings, caregiving has always been part of my life. I have been working with children for over 6 years, through various babysitting and tutoring jobs. I am bilingual in English and French and conversational in Spanish. I am also comfortable working with children of all ages! My biggest strength as a caregiver is my ability to adapt and creatively problem-solve, all while maintaining a positive attitude. Furthermore, I am honest, patient, and generous in spirit. I also have several hobbies and enjoy playing volleyball, reading books, and taking photographs, to name a few. All in all, I truly enjoy caregiving and I look forward to serving your family!

Booked by 6 families in Edgewater, NJ

Hello! You can call me Fatou for short. I live in the Bronx, willing to commute. I’m 25 years old and a full time experienced babysitter/nanny. I’ve been on Urban-sitter for a year now. I’ve done over nights, school drop offs and pick ups, and occasionally one time jobs as well. Worked with 7 families so far. I do well with complex schedules as well. Why babysitting/nannying? Knowing how to take care of kids before becoming a mom myself <3 I prioritize safety, clear communication, and consistency while creating a comfortable environment where children feel cared for and parents can feel at ease. I’m a former summer camp counselor from the Little Shepards program, had lots of fun going on outdoor trips to the zoo, amusement parks and museums. I’m a big sister as well, my little sister Tita! She’s 8 years old and the sweetest thing ever. We do a lot of our own girly dates like movies, kids spa and quick errands with me. So far we’ve watched The little Mermaid, Moana, Mufasa, and Elio! I have a 2 year old British short hair cat so I have experience with kittens/cats. Definitely look forward to working with you and your little ones soon!

"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."

photo of quoted parent Eric

"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)."
