Booked by 4 families in Fort Lee, NJ

Hello! My name is Carmen, and I would love to be considered as your nanny. I have over 5 years of experience caring for children, including those with special needs, and I always strive to create a safe, supportive, and loving environment where every child feels seen and understood. I'm fluent in Portuguese, speak intermediate Spanish, and am confident in English as well,so I'm comfortable working in multilingual households or supporting language development. I'm happy to support with daily routines and learning activities. I have extensive experience with infants, encompassing responsibilities such as feeding, bedtime routines, interactive play, outdoor strolls, and engaging in conversations to enhance their cognitive growth and here are other duties: driving to school and activities, managing doctors' appointments, organizing play dates, and ensuring they are well-fed with nutritious meals. I look forward to hearing from you!! Thank you, Carmen

My daughter had a great time with her.

Booked by 2 families in Fort Lee, NJ

Hello! My name is Arianna and I am currently a Freshman at Baruch College. I have been experienced in caring for children for, quite literally, all my life. I've cared for my two younger siblings, one of which who has special needs, ever since they were born. I've also cared for my nieces, nephews, and the children of close family friends. I truly enjoy working with kids because they're so lively and bring out the creative side of my personality. Since I went to high school for arts, I enjoy sitting down with kids and helping them do crafts that can be as simple as finger painting to something as complex as sewing. Whatever creativity your child wants to dapple into, I'm here to assist them and allow their imagination to run wild. I am able to work with kids of all ages and I am skilled in caring for children who are special needs due to living with my younger sister who has autism. I'd be delighted to spend time with your child and get to know them as I care for them, while keeping them safe and sound!

Booked by 3 families in Fort Lee, NJ

My name is Joanna and I’m originally from Switzerland, Geneva (bilingual in French and English). I’m 29 years old, graduated from my master’s at NYU in International relations and international law and now work in fashion. I worked as a babysitter for the past 14 years. Since I moved to the US, I worked for many families with 1 to 5 children at the same time, and between the ages of 6 weeks old to 14 years old, in Miami, Los Angeles and New York. I babysat a family with a 6-week-old newborn and his 2-year-old brother, at the same time, for months daily. I also worked for many other families with 3 kids (from 4 to 12 years old) where I had to pick them up from school and play with them or helped them with their homework. I have a younger sister and grew up as the oldest in my family with 6 younger cousins, and grew up babysitting them regularly. I truly miss having my family here and spending time with kids- I love learning from them. I always follow and respect the family and parents’ rules and values. I look forward to meeting you and your family :)

Warm and dependable. A really lovely person and babysitter!

Booked by 4 families in Fort Lee, NJ

Hi, I’m Brianna and I am a preschool teacher in the Manhattan area offering occasional nannying services for toddlers/pre-K children, housework, and pet care. I’ve been teaching preschool for four years, but have had a lifetime of experience taking care of my younger siblings and cousins. I have a great passion for early childhood education and I love working with little ones. I can help with homework for younger children, housework, and any pets! (I have two dogs and a fish of my own). I love doing arts and crafts activities as well and would always love to spend an afternoon introducing children to different creative outlets! I have experience taking children on day trips, on public transport, navigating the city, and eating in public. I also have potty training experience as well and can help with that transition if needed. I’m a dedicated caregiver who wants to be an extra hand to families who need one every now and then!

Brianna was really professional and was so good at engaging with and interacting with my kid. They were respectful, knowledgeable and warm. Would absolutely hire again.

"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)."
