Booked by 6 families in Elmwood Park, NJ

Hi I am Chris! I am 25 years old and I live in Hawthorne, New Jersey. I attended Rowan University where I graduated with a Graphic Design degree. I love working with children. I have grown up taking care of the younger ones around me. I come from a family where most of my siblings are teachers in schools so I am around working with kids a lot. I have also worked a lot with babies and the younger ages so I know what to do to take care of them as well. I just want to be able to ensure a day/night free of worry for you to enjoy while the kids still have fun too! I really hope we can make this work. Looking to hear back from you!

Raquel $22 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I am an active, extroverted, and creative sitter. I love being around kids and teaching them new things. I also enjoy watching their personalities grow and become more unique. I am comfortable with children of all ages from infant to middle school, but I have worked most of my time with toddlers and elementary. I have also worked with multiple children and pets as well. I do aid in children’s laundry, meal prep, and am available to assist in activities if needed. I also drive and enjoy taking the kids out to do fun activities that we may find.

Hi, my name is Kamila but you can call me Mila! I'm looking for part/full time. I have over 4 years experience babysitting and I have worked with children of all ages. I have covid vaccine, first aid/CPR and training. I consider myself an extremely calm and patient person! My skills include cooking, cleaning, and arts and crafts. I'm extremely outgoing, fun and love helping children excel and grow. Children love games at every age, I can play games that they like, or we can create some new games together. I am always ready to go to a nearby park or playground with them. We can go to the park together, do puzzles, read books, paint, draw, paper cut, shape, and do some events to develop their skills. Teach them the games I played as a child and introduce them to different games. In the summer, In addition, I will motivate them to achieve their goals and face new challenges that allow them to discover all their talents and abilities.

Jasmin $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Jasmin , and I’m an 18-year-old high school senior who will be attending college for medical science. I come from a big family with 8 siblings, so caring for children has always been a natural part of my life. Along with growing up helping raise my siblings, I have 2 years of paid childcare experience, working with kids of different ages. I especially love caring for infants and enjoy creating a safe, calm, and nurturing environment for them, but I’m comfortable and open to working with children of all ages. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive, and I truly enjoy helping kids learn, grow, and feel supported. I’m excited to bring my experience and positive energy to a family in need of a reliable and caring caregiver

I have a dog that I take care of and I’ve been around them my whole life. I’d say I’m pretty good with pets but I’m most comfortable around dogs. I’m pretty active so I try to go on runs with my dog daily and try to fit in as much playtime I can in an hour.

"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)."
