Janeen $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’ve always had a passion for working with children. I’ve worked as a teachers assistant at a pre k school in Hoboken, where I gained experience helping little ones learn, grow and have fun! While I enjoy working in the school I discovered that being a nanny allows me to connect closely with children and families while enjoying the flexibility to give the child more personalized care and attention. As a nanny I bring patients and a warm nurturing approach . I love engaging kids in fun activities, coloring, reading and explore the outdoors. I have children of my own, ages, 26,16,and 10 They mean EVERYTHING to me. I will always treat your kids as if they were my own .

Hi Families! I'm a 22 year old student from Bergen Community College hoping to help take some responsibility off your days. I currently work as a teacher assistant for toddlers ages 2-3 year olds but also help out with Pre-K students, and have elementary aged younger siblings I care for! I am also Child and Baby CPR/ First Aid/ and AED Certified. I also have my own car to provide easy transportation and am located in Secaucus. My goal is to help in the best way I can; I find learning a huge part of growth and love caregiving because I am able to impact a child and their family for the greater good and make memories along the way. I'm lovable, interactive, and work my best to make sure every day is a good day. Hope to hear from you soon :)

"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."

Kamilah W., mom of one

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)."
