Jasmin $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Jasmin , and I’m an 18-year-old high school senior who will be attending college for medical science. I come from a big family with 8 siblings, so caring for children has always been a natural part of my life. Along with growing up helping raise my siblings, I have 2 years of paid childcare experience, working with kids of different ages. I especially love caring for infants and enjoy creating a safe, calm, and nurturing environment for them, but I’m comfortable and open to working with children of all ages. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive, and I truly enjoy helping kids learn, grow, and feel supported. I’m excited to bring my experience and positive energy to a family in need of a reliable and caring caregiver

Nazia $30 per hour for 1 child

Working in the local school district with 9 years of experience and a diverse list of roles, my passion for nurturing children's growth and supporting families drives my every action. Working with the Teaneck School District allowed me to develop a versatile approach in supporting children from Pre-K to High-school, especially those with special needs. I'm patient, calm, and friendly, and I believe in open communication with parents about their childrens' day. I'm comfortable following the parents' lead in enforcing household rules. My training and experience have equipped me to engage children through educational games, board games, and puzzles. I'm thrilled to care for up to two children between the ages of 0 and 11. I am confident my past experience working with children will make me a perfect candidate for this type of job. Let's embark on a nurturing journey together!

"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)."
