Charlotte $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Charlotte, and I'm an 18-year-old babysitter based in Weehawken, NJ. I hold CPR and Babysitting Certifications from the American Red Cross and have six years of hands-on experience with children of all ages — from newborns and toddlers to preteens up to age 11. I bring more than just childcare to the table. I'm happy to help with light cooking, cleaning, and keeping the home tidy while you're away. With nine years of martial arts training, I'm calm under pressure and fully capable of keeping every child in my care safe and protected. I love keeping kids active and engaged — whether that means a trip to the park, a fun activity, or just making the most of an afternoon at home. Whatever the day calls for, I show up ready. I'm a licensed driver, available all summer on weekdays and weekends, and open to relocating wherever I'm needed. I'd love to be a dependable, positive sitter for your family! (I attend Highschool from 8am-3pm till June 18th)

"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."

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)."
