$20 per hour for 1 child

Booked by 1 family in Short Hills, NJ

Hi! My name is Stella, and I currently work with Jovie Caregiving, where I’ve gained hands-on experience providing attentive, reliable, and compassionate childcare for families. I am also currently in nursing school with a strong interest in pediatrics and neonatal care, so working with children is something I’m truly passionate about both personally and professionally. I love creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment for kids through creative activities, games, and interactive learning. I’m also happy to assist with homework, daily routines, meal preparation, and cooking. My goal is always to make children feel comfortable, supported, and cared for while giving parents peace of mind knowing their little ones are in good hands!

“Stella is absolutely lovely. She arrived early for a last minute booking, asked very thoughtful questions ahead of the booking, and was very attentive and engaging with my son. You can really tell she is a professional nanny. We will definitely book her next time we are in Newark. ”

"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."

Amy L., mom of one

"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

"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)."
