Lishayra $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Lishayra and I’m a caring and dependable childcare provider with over 7 years of experience working with children of all ages. I spent 5 years in a daycare setting and the past 2 years as a private nanny. I also hold an Associate’s Degree in Early Childhood Education, which has helped me create fun, age-appropriate activities that support children’s learning and development. I’m passionate about providing a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where kids can learn and grow. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to help with household chores, homework, light cooking, and cleaning to make family life run smoothly. I’m comfortable with dogs but allergic to cats. Families describe me as patient, organized, and full of positive energy. I love becoming part of the family team and making each day both fun and structured for the children I care for.

Erica $25 per hour for 1 child

I am a dedicated and compassionate education professional with experience working with children and students with disabilities. My educational background includes studying Psychology at Felician University, where I developed a strong interest in child development, behavior, and supporting individuals with different learning needs. I am continuing to pursue my goal of completing my education and becoming a certified Special Education teacher, with a particular interest in working with neurodivergent children. Since August 2022, I have worked as a Teacher Assistant with the Plainfield Public School District in New Jersey. In this role, I provide academic, behavioral, and emotional support to students with diverse needs. I work closely with teachers and other school professionals to help students participate in classroom activities, follow routines, develop independence, and feel safe and supported in their learning environment. My experience has given me the opportunity to work with students who require additional patience, structure, communication, and individualized support. My passion for working with children with special needs is also deeply personal. I am a parent of children with special needs, and my own experiences have given me a deeper understanding of the challenges, strengths, and unique needs that children and their families may experience. Being a parent has taught me patience, compassion, advocacy, and the importance of celebrating every child's individual progress. It is one of the reasons I chose to dedicate my career to working with children who need additional support. I consider myself a loving and caring caregiver because I genuinely care about the well-being of every child I work with. I understand that children need more than supervision—they need patience, encouragement, understanding, consistency, and someone who will advocate for them. I strive to create an environment where children feel safe, respected, accepted, and valued. I treat the children in my care with the same compassion and patience that I would want someone to show my own children. My personal and professional experiences have strengthened my commitment to education and caregiving. I want to continue growing professionally and eventually become a Special Education teacher who can make a meaningful difference in the lives of children and their families.

"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)."
