Booked by 1 family in Shrewsbury, NJ

Hi there! My name is Brenna, I am 29 years old and have worked in child care on and off since I was 13. I have recent infant and special needs experience. In the past, I worked for various after school programs, and in school support positions. I have experience with children of all ages and abilities, including kids with sensory issues and behavioral challenges. I specifically thrive working with children on the autism spectrum as well as adhd. On a more personal note: I love arts and crafts and spending time outdoors! Getting to know the kids I work with and helping them explore their interests and hobbies is so important to me. I strongly believe in providing a safe space for children in my care. I do this by bringing a high level of patience and humor to my jobs. I have not encountered a challenging behavior I couldn’t handle or a child I couldn’t make smile. Because of my work in schools and after schools, I have taking many early childhood development and safety trainings, as well as CPR and first aid training which I try and keep up to date. I have a background check and multiple references as I understand the importance of children's safety, I look forward to hearing from you!

“Very good with the baby. Patient and calm. Also reads so many books to him ”

Rachel $35 per hour for 1 child

From 2009 onward, I volunteered in different educational capacities to gain experience. In the summers of 2012 and 2013, I landed my first job working for the City of Fremont as a recreational aide. I planned the curriculum, led activities, and supervised the children. Later, I worked at Children's Fairyland for almost two years. In October 2014, I began working at Hortensia's Way preschool, where I stayed for almost seven years. I cared for infants from four months to children up to eight years of age. I enjoyed working at a preschool because I had the opportunity to work with a diverse group of children, and I loved seeing them learn and grow. As a result of my years as a preschool assistant, I have experience in developing and implementing curricula, supervising and teaching children, as well as potty training and facilitating general play. I have nine early childhood education units, and I have worked for four years as a nanny, caring for infants who have grown into toddlers. I have assisted with tummy time, solids, engagement, and routines, as well as creating play spaces!

Jennifer 2 reviews
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Jenny and I am originally from Seattle but I lived in Boston for 10 years and now in Brooklyn for the last 3 years. I am a professional vocalist and perform for high end wedding and events in the city and country. Caring for others and making someone else's day or week a little bit easier makes me happy. I want to live in a world where people are caring, emphatic, and create real connections with each other. I've been baby sitting and helping others since I was a kid - I nannied for 2 boys in Newton, MA for about a year after college (ages 2 and 6). Any after school pickup, homework help, and dinner help - I'm your girl! If your child is at all interested in music, I would love to be a part of that. I love all animals and I feel comfortable cleaning, cooking, and driving. I have a clean driving record, a safe car (subaru) and a caring bubbly demeanor. I haven't been in childcare for a while because I've been professionally singing most of the time but I love the brooklyn community and figured I could get involved again in my own neighborhood.

“Jennifer is fantastic! She is extremely professional and reliable, and I had no issues leaving her with my daughter. She was able to handle dinner and bedtime with our toddler, and was great in their playful interactions. I highly recommend Jennifer!”

"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)."
