Daniela $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello, I am looking for a full-time nanny position in Bergen county. Fun fact about me is that I am the 6th of 14 children. I have cared for children personally all of my life and professionally for 8 years and I have over 5 years of infant care.My skills include cooking, cleaning, and arts and crafts. I'm extremely outgoing, fun and love helping children excel and grow. Throughout my experience not only being a nanny but also being a big sister I find the best thing for a child is structure, good communication, and love. Children thrive with organized space and a consistent schedule and I enjoy providing that, along with the love and support they need to succeed. I am willing to work with a family's needs as well as the individual needs of the child/children. I hope that I am the nanny that your family is looking for and look forward to hearing from you!

"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)."
