Booked by 4 families in Harrison, NJ

Hello, family! My name is Paula, and I have over 10 years of experience as a nanny and babysitter. Throughout my career, I have cared for babies, toddlers, and adolescents. I truly love what I do and take pride in creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children can learn, grow, and have fun. I consider myself calm, patient, caring, and dependable, and I enjoy helping children develop their skills at every stage of their growth. I also have extensive experience working with children with developmental disabilities and understand the importance of providing individualized, compassionate care. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to assist with child-related tasks such as diaper changes, bathing, school or activity transportation, preparing children’s meals and snacks, doing children’s laundry, and helping with any other needs your family may have. References are available upon request. I look forward to the opportunity to meet your family!

Paula was gentle, caring, and responsive with our 2.5 month old. We will definitely book her again!

Hi - My name is Nyrohah and I'm currently a junior at NJCU. I am offering child care, senior care, and household services. I love being a babysitter and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids since I was 17 years old. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts, tutoring, and sports skills like soccer, basketball. I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean, and run errands. I have been a caretaker for my own grandparents and am comfortable with senior care. I can cook, drive to appointments, or do other tasks. (I am also a great bridge partner!) I am happy to work with families with dogs too

Nyrohah was an excellent caregiver. My children love her and would like to see her again soon. She is very professional with her job and is an exceptional individual. I would definitely hire her because she is very responsible and generous.

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
