Booked by 1 family in Weehawken, NJ

Hi! My name is Alicia and I attend Lehman College. My major is sociology. I have experience with children from the ages of 6 months to 14 years old and have been working with children since the age of 13. I have a very flexible schedule on the weekends. I can prepare meals, help with bathing/dressing, changing diapers, homework, cleaning up, bedtime and plan and partake in activities with the children. I can also help with swimming supervision, transportation, light house work, and grocery shopping. I work well with multiple children since I grew up taking care of my younger siblings. I am also comfortable taking care of animals and have a dog of my own. A little more about me: I am kind, helpful, caring, patient, fun, smart, and creative. I like to read, play board games, paint, do karaoke, write, and bake. I am patient when dealing with children's needs, emotions, and behavior. I have great communication skills that help me better understand and address the child's needs. Always ensuring a safe environment for the child is of utmost importance to me. I look forward to the opportunity to be that reliable, responsible, engaging caretaker you are seeking.

Alicia came early and was very nice, attentive and responsible. My daughters said they liked her and looked forward to seeing her again. I definitely recommend her. Alicia did a wonderful job. She texted me updates as needed and was able to keep my girls engaged during a long day together. She is reliable, professional and simply a nice, considerate person. Just a pleasure to work with.

Taylor 1 review
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a Registered Nurse with a background in nannying, babysitting, and infant/toddler care in both home and hospital settings. Caregiving has always been part of my life—before nursing school, I worked with babies and toddlers, and over the years I’ve also supported seniors, families in the community, and plenty of pets. I’m currently in BirthSmarter training and starting the path toward becoming a nurse-midwife, so working closely with families feels like a natural fit. I’m creative, patient, and very communicative, and I love bringing a calm, nurturing presence to the home. I’m looking for a steady full-time role with a Brooklyn family where I can offer both reliability and genuine warmth.

Taylor has been an incredible help to our family. She cared for our toddler and our senior dog with a level of calm competence that immediately put us at ease. Her nursing background shows in the way she notices small details and communicates clearly, but she also has this creative, gentle energy that our daughter responded to right away. She was punctual, respectful of our home, and genuinely present—no phone scrolling, no rushing through the evening routine. I appreciated how confident and patient she was during bedtime, and how thoughtfully she handled our dog’s medication schedule. We’d gladly work with her again. Anyone who hires her will feel lucky to have her on their team.

Hi! I’m Scarlet, a passionate and caring nanny. I offer child care and pet care, always creating a fun and safe environment! I have 2 years of experience as an au pair, caring for a 2 y/o baby and a 5 y/o girl. I absolutely love working with children and enjoy role playing games, painting, baking delicious treats, doing crafts, and playing sports. I bring the perfect balance of being gentle and feminine with girls, and fun and silly with boys! I can also help with teaching or tutoring Spanish, homework assistance, and even cooking. Plus, I’m CPR-certified, ensuring your child’s safety at all times, yayyy! Pet care is another passion of mine! I grew up surrounded by animals, so I have plenty of experience taking care of pets. I love going on walks with dogs and playing with cats, making sure they receive the attention and care they deserve. Looking forward to providing the best care for your little ones and furry friends!

Booked by 1 family in Weehawken, NJ

Hi - My name is Nyrohah and I'm currently a junior at NJCU. I am offering child care, senior care, and household services. I love being a babysitter and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids since I was 17 years old. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts, tutoring, and sports skills like soccer, basketball. I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean, and run errands. I have been a caretaker for my own grandparents and am comfortable with senior care. I can cook, drive to appointments, or do other tasks. (I am also a great bridge partner!) I am happy to work with families with dogs too

Nyrohah was an excellent caregiver. My children love her and would like to see her again soon. She is very professional with her job and is an exceptional individual. I would definitely hire her because she is very responsible and generous.

"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)."
