Booked by 34 families in West New York, NJ

Hi! I am Heloísa, nice to meet you I am dedicated to my work and give one hundred percent to everything I do. I have been working with children since I was fifteen years old and have extensive experience in the field. Taking care of a child is much more than just a job, but rather a learning experience aimed at always building a bond of trust and care with the family and the child. I also offer other services such as cleaning/organizing and pet care. Thank you very much in advance for your attention to my profile!

Heloisa was a pleasure to work with for our date night. She was so sweet and accommodating as we coordinated. Great communication and was patient with me as I finalized the specifics of my night. She jumped right in to help with my 8 & 11 yo girls, and my girls felt comfortable with her right away. I, too, felt instantly comfortable that my girls were in great hands. I would absolutely recommend her.

Hi! I’m Schnell, a professional full-time nanny with extensive experience caring for infants and toddlers, including twins. I specialize in creating a structured, nurturing, and engaging environment that supports each child’s development while maintaining a calm and organized household. I’m highly reliable, patient, and skilled at managing multiple children with ease, while keeping routines consistent and stress-free for both children and parents.

Schnell was absolutely wonderful. This was our first time using UrbanSitter and Schnell arrived a few minutes early, was super communicative with us, and relaxed and gentle with our daughter. 10/10!

"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."

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)."
