Booked by 1 family in Newark, NJ

Hi, my name is Brittany! I have been in childcare for over 9 years. I have specifically consistently worked in infant childcare for the past 7, but also have and enjoy working with littles of all ages! Flexible schedule, with lots of experience caring for more than one child at a time. Hoping to connect with families looking for some extra help creating a loving, safe and nurturing environment for their child/children. Looking forward to working with you. Thank you!😊

“Brittany has been our longtime babysitter and is truly part of our family. She’s amazing with kids – so professional, warm, and experienced, both in her career and personally. As first-time parents, we’ve learned so much from her. She’s seen everything and always supports and educates us without judgment. She is always on time, incredibly reliable, and genuinely loves children. Our son doesn’t love everyone, but he absolutely adores Brittany. She’s fun, nurturing, and feels like another mom in his life. We’re so excited she’s expanding her network via the app because any family would be lucky to have her.”

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.

"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)."
