Katherine 1 review
$13 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Katie, and I grew up in Manhattan, New York. I’m currently a sophomore at Wake Forest University with an intended major in economics. Go deacs! Throughout middle and high school, I was a part time sitter for 2 children (ages 1-12). A typical day includes picking them up from school, bring them home to start homework, read stories, play games, prepare dinner, tuck them into bed, and clean up common areas before their parents come home. I also volunteered a few times a week at a daycare for underprivileged children. This fostered a unique friendship with not only the children, but families too. My friendly and bubbly personality keeps children happy, and seeing a smile on their face makes me the happiest!

Hi my name is Veronica, I am a certified nanny/baby nurse and also CPR certified.I am looking for part time or full time employment. I have been working with children for 18years and given I have two of my own one over the age of 20. I love kids regardless of age and tend to have their best interest at heart. I have been told by multiple kids that I am more like a mommy when their mother is not around and that warm my heart and proves to me that I am doing what’s right.I am most definitely an outdoorsy person who believe in kids exploring and having fun, furthermore I also enjoy getting on the floor with them engaging in any kind of indoor games being arts and craft, block stacking, reading, ect. I speak basic french and is willing to teach you little ones a second language if you so desire. In my spare time I love decorating,cooking, looking to learn new things that will enhance my life and going out with friends. Caring for children truly gives me a sense of joy and happiness.

Booked by 181 families in Oceanport, NJ

Hi! I’m Schnell, a professional full-time nanny with extensive experience caring for infants and toddlers, including twins. I specialize in creating a structured, nurturing, and engaging environment while providing attentive, hands-on care. I love keeping children active and engaged throughout the day. I plan age-appropriate activities and outings such as trips to the park, playgrounds, museums, indoor play spaces, classes, and other child-friendly activities. At home, I enjoy reading books, doing arts and crafts, sensory play, music, and activities that encourage learning and development. I’m experienced with maintaining feeding and nap schedules, preparing meals and snacks, diaper changes, potty training, school drop-offs and pick-ups, getting children ready for activities, and helping them develop independence as they grow. I also handle children’s laundry, organize their toys and belongings, clean up after meals and activities, and help keep their spaces organized. I’m highly reliable, patient, organized, and comfortable caring for multiple children while balancing different schedules and needs. My goal is for children to feel safe, happy, engaged, and cared for while giving parents peace of mind. I’m currently seeking families who value attentive, high-quality care and a dependable caregiver. I’m also available for occasional evening and weekend babysitting.

"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)."
