Booked by 1 family in Secaucus, NJ

I genuinely have a passion for helping others, particularly when it comes to cleaning, organizing, running errands, and maintaining a well-functioning household. I believe in giving my utmost effort and treating each task as if it were being done for my own home or family. Over the years, I’ve gained valuable experience caring for children and providing household services. These experiences have instilled in me patience, responsibility, and a strong sense of reliability. Families consistently describe me as caring, trustworthy, and detail-oriented. I take great pride in providing not only high-quality care but also peace of mind, knowing that your loved ones and your home are in good hands.

So professional.

I love all our fur covered friends!! Cats, dogs, and every pet one can think of are the best extended family members we have and I love taking care of them. Whether for a walk or to visit and play with, there is nothing better than time with a wonderful furball!!

Amy $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi!! My name is Amy, and I’m a 25-year-old Rutgers University graduate with a strong background in childcare, pet care, and household support. I’ve always enjoyed caring for others and creating warm, structured environments where kids can thrive and feel safe — and where families can count on dependable, thoughtful help. From 2018 to 2021, I worked as a nanny for children between the ages of 4 and 7. During that time, I helped with school drop-offs and pick-ups, planned and led creative and stimulating activities (from arts and crafts to outdoor play), and regularly took the kids to the park or after-school activities. I always made sure our days were fun, organized, and filled with learning moments. In addition to childcare, I’ve been a trusted dog sitter for several families in Princeton, NJ, where I grew up. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playing, or simply keeping pets company while families are away, I love being around animals and understand how important it is to care for them with attention and love. I’m fluent in Spanish, which comes in handy in bilingual households or when introducing kids to a new language in fun ways. I'm also an excellent communicator and believe in being honest, patient, and responsive — qualities that I think are essential when working in someone’s home and building trust with their loved ones. Currently, I work as a visual merchandiser at Lululemon in Princeton. I enjoy the creativity and problem-solving that comes with the job, but I’m now looking to work closer to home and connect with new families in Hoboken or nearby areas. Ideally, I’m hoping to find a full-time role that fits my schedule. I take pride in being dependable, organized, and easy to work with — someone who kids feel comfortable around, and parents can rely on.

Hello! My name is Iveliz, and caring for others has always been a meaningful part of my life. As a mother, I raised my son, who is now 14 years old, and have spent many years providing loving, attentive care to children of all ages. Most recently, I cared for a 6 month old and previously provided part-time care for family members' children ages 2, 4, and 9. In addition to childcare, I have extensive experience caring for seniors and individuals with disabilities. For several years, I served as a primary caregiver for my father, assisting him with daily living needs, companionship, meal preparation, transportation, light housekeeping, and emotional support. I am available for: • Infant and child care • After-school care • Date night babysitting • Light housekeeping and organization • Meal preparation • Senior companionship and non-medical assistance • Transportation and errands (if needed) Families describe me as patient, nurturing, dependable, and trustworthy. I genuinely enjoy helping others and creating a safe, caring environment where children and seniors feel comfortable, respected, and valued. I look forward to helping your family!

"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)."
