Emerita D 2 reviews
$23 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Kenilworth, NJ

Hello, my name is Emerita. I am 36 years old. I have two children, 16 and 11 years I love children I am very sweet and patient with them I like to read books, play, take them to the park. I have 3 years of experience and worked with 2 families, in a daycare also I can help with light cleaning . I have a driver's license and CPR&AID

“Emerita is an amazing nanny, and our family very fortunate to have found her. Our son had only known one nanny for all 3.5 years of his life and at that age was not taking too kindly to new people. However, when his first nanny went home overseas, Emerita was able to quickly and successfully take over what was quite a demanding job at the time: 6 days/week, 10 hours a day watching after our very active son including extensive trips away from the house at parks, beaches, the city, etc. Highly trustworthy, very friendly, and very adaptable to children....we strongly recommend Emerita for anyone seeking a nanny who is willing to adapt to your schedule and manage highly demanding toddlers.”

Gwladys $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, Moms and dads, I’m Gwladys! I’m 29 years old, a proud mom of three, and currently juggling full-time work and school as I pursue my bachelor’s degree in sonography. I hold an associate degree in science and am looking for a side opportunity to help support my family while doing something I genuinely enjoy; caring for children. Although I don't have formal professional childcare experience, I’ve been caring for kids since I was 14. Being a mother myself, I understand the importance of trust, patience, and creating a safe, loving environment for little ones. I’m naturally nurturing, empathetic, attentive, and deeply committed to children’s well-being and development. Whether you need a reliable caregiver for a few hours or extra support during busy days, I’d love to be a helping hand in your family's life.

Ever since i was a little girl I’ve always gravitated towards children and had a special spark with them. I am experienced with infants all the way to teens. Responsibilities throughout my journey have included driving to/ from school, crafts, tutoring, dance lessons, meal prepping and have even partaking in family vacations. I am certified in CPR and i am Bilingual in both English and Spanish. With all the responsibilities that play a part i also make sure to incorporate a very friendly, kind and energetic environment for the children. I am open and willing to do chores around the house as well as cooking. Working with family pets is not an issue.

"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)."
