Cenae $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Cenae 😊 I’m a caring, dependable nanny with over four years of hands-on childcare experience, and working with children has always been a big part of my life. I’ve cared for kids ranging from infants to school-aged children, and I truly enjoy being involved in their day-to-day routines, growth, and development. I have strong experience with infants and toddlers, including bottle feeding, diaper changes, supervised naps, tummy time, and engaging play. I’m very attentive to babies’ cues and focus on creating a calm, nurturing environment where they feel safe, comfortable, and happy. Families I’ve worked with often describe me as patient, gentle, and naturally good with children. In addition to my professional nannying experience, I come from a large family with several younger siblings, so caring for kids has always come naturally to me. I take my role seriously and treat every child I care for with the same love and attention I would want for my own family. I value open communication with parents and enjoy working with families who see their nanny as a trusted part of their child’s care. I’m someone parents can feel confident relying on, and I always strive to create a positive, supportive environment for both children and parents. I’m currently looking for a part-time or full-time position and would love to connect with families looking for attentive, loving care for their little ones.

Vanessa $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Vanessa, and I am a responsible, compassionate, and dependable caregiver who truly enjoys supporting others. I am currently a multifaceted student at Rutgers University studying Supply Chain Management, which has strengthened my organization, time management, and problem-solving skills—qualities I bring into every caregiving role. This past summer, I worked with 20+ students as a Program Assistant for a dual enrollment program, where I supported students academically and personally, helped manage daily schedules, and ensured a safe, structured, and positive environment. That experience strengthened my patience, leadership, and ability to respond calmly and attentively to different needs and personalities. I approach caregiving with empathy, attentiveness, and a strong sense of responsibility. Whether assisting with daily routines, meals, companionship, or light household tasks, I take pride in being reliable and consistent. I also value open communication and make it a priority to keep families informed and involved. My goal is to provide thoughtful, dependable care while building trust with both the individual I’m supporting and their loved ones. I would be honored to support your family and make a meaningful difference in your daily life.

Ayoade $24 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Ayoade. I’m currently in cosmetology school and hold a Bachelor of Arts in Communication & Psychology. I offer child care, senior care, and light household services. I have over a decade of experience caring for children of all ages—from newborns to school-aged kids (including my twin sisters!). I’ve worked in a daycare and spent 2 years as a Direct Support Professional, which strengthened my skills in patience, safety, and individualized care. My responsibilities have included school drop-offs/pick-ups, meal prep, homework help, crafts, and fun, engaging activities. I’m responsible, flexible, and quick on my feet. I also serve in the children’s department at my church, so my childcare experience is ongoing. I look forward to creating a safe, fun, and caring environment for 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."

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)."
