Booked by 3 families in Fort Lee, NJ

I am 23 and an actor now residing in NYC. I was born & raised in Indiana and used to help keep my Nana company and would assist with my younger cousins. Being an actor, I love to play make believe with the little ones. I was also an assistant improv instructor for kids ages 5-12 and an acting teacher for neurodiverse/disabled teens and adults. I enjoy doing creative projects and interacting with children (preferred ages 4-12). Learn more about me at[removed] Pet Care 🐾 I’ve never met an animal I couldn’t befriend. I have experience taking care of dogs, cats, birds, bunnies, fish, and even some reptiles! Feel free to inquire about more specifics. You can also find me on Rover.

Madison was very friendly, super punctual, and great to communicate with. We will definitely be reaching out to her the next time we are in NYC. Thanks for hanging out with William tonight!

Booked by 16 families in Fort Lee, NJ

Hello! My name is Jennessa (first name Kathryn). I'm 27, and have been a nanny and babysitter for multiple other wonderful families over the course of the past 7 years with kids ranging from newborn (4 weeks) to 10 y/o. While I am new to the UrbanSitters platform, I have previously worked through a nannying agency and will gladly provide references from my past clients. I love pets and am very comfortable with being around/ caring for them, am CPR/First Aid certified, speak Spanish, and have years of experience as a private tutor. I have a BA in English from Boston College and spent the past two years working a very draining writing job in the legal field. The entire time I missed the kids and families I used to nanny for, so I am regrouping and reentering the childcare field! My goal is always to provide a safe, fun, low-stress environment for children where they feel comfortable expressing themselves. I also love to foster the development of strong language skills and creativity through reading and storytelling. I am often described as calm, patient, creative, and engaging. I'd love to hear more from you and learn about your childcare needs!

Booked by 51 families in Fort Lee, NJ

My name is Liz, I’m 33 years old, and originally from Brazil. I’ve been working with children for over ten years in a variety of roles that include nannying, family assistance, and cook support. I’m passionate about creating structure while also keeping things fun, organized, and nurturing for the children and families I work with. Previously, I was a family assistant/nanny/cook for a family with two school-aged girls. My mornings started early, getting the girls ready for school by prepping lunch boxes, encouraging them to make their beds and tidy their rooms, hairstyles, and handling school drop-offs. I was also responsible for the weekly grocery shopping and collaborate with the mom on meal planning to ensure the family’s routine and nutrition needs were met. I handled all the cooking and meal prep and also took on various home projects such as organizing rooms, closets, and redesigning garage storage systems. When the kids were home, I focused on engaging them with activities like crafts, cooking together, outdoor adventures, playground trips, and museum outings. Before this, I was working in a nanny share with a 21-month-old boy and a 22-month-old girl. I had been with the girl since she was 3 months old, and we started the share when the children were 6 and 7 months old. I have hands-on experience with Montessori practices, sleep training, introducing solids, and supporting motor skill development. In a previous role, I worked as a nanny/family assistant for two incredible girls, ages 7 and 10. My responsibilities included school pickups and drop-offs, homework help, coordinating their daily routines, managing their laundry and belongings, and planning fun and enriching activities like hiking, biking, and arts and crafts. As a family assistant, I supported the household by organizing the family calendar, running errands, grocery shopping, helping with meal planning and prep, and generally making sure the household ran smoothly.

We had a wonderful experience with Liz. She watched our two daughters for an evening and was punctual, friendly, and immediately put both the kids (and us!) at ease. She was engaging, responsible, and handled dinner, bedtime, and everything in between with confidence and warmth. We would absolutely hire her again and highly recommend her to other families looking for a reliable and caring sitter.

"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."

Kamilah W., mom of one

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)."
