Nashka $20 per hour for 1 child

My name is Nashka, and I’m a PCA (Personal Care Assistant) with a CPR certificate. I’m a caring, patient, and responsible person who truly enjoys working with children and teens. I have experience caring for kids of different ages — including my younger brother, a blind toddler I worked with overnight, and children aged 3 and up. I also work with teenagers who have physical challenges, including those who use wheelchairs or have difficulty walking or speaking. Through this experience, I’ve learned how to provide gentle, respectful, and supportive care that meets each person’s unique needs. I always strive to create a safe, fun, and loving environment where every child or teen feels comfortable, understood, and valued. I want to start dec 1 Free to reach out

Marva $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Marva and I’m a mother of 3 offering child care services. I love taking care of kids and have lots of experience with it in the past. I have taken care of children in every age group, from newborns, to infants, toddlers, and preteen/teens. Apart from being a mother, I’ve been a Sunday school children’s teacher and in doing so, my responsibilities included story time, bathroom assistance and crafts. I would love to work with you and your family however I don’t have the best experiences with dogs so I would prefer not to work with them, but I currently have a cat who is the love of my life. I would be more than happy to read stories, do nursery rhymes, prepare meals for the kids and take them to activities. It would be my honor to assist you in caring for your child.

Booked by 6 families in Emerson, 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!

"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)."
