Clara $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Clara, and I’m an 18-year-old recent high school graduate with four years of childcare experience. Caring for children has always been my greatest passion. Ever since I was young, I’ve dreamed of working with kids, and my long-term goal is to become a pediatric nurse. Over the past four years, I’ve had the privilege of caring for children of all ages. Every family I’ve worked with has taught me something new and strengthened my love for childcare. I strive to create a safe, loving, and positive environment where children feel comfortable, supported, and encouraged to learn and grow. I enjoy reading stories, playing games, doing arts and crafts, spending time outdoors, helping with homework, and creating fun activities that keep children engaged. I’m a patient, responsible, dependable, and compassionate caregiver who understands how important trust and communication are. I treat every child with kindness, respect, and the same level of care I would want for my own family. I have my own car, a valid driver’s license, and reliable transportation. I speak English, Portuguese, and Spanish, which allows me to communicate with families from different backgrounds. I’m also comfortable with pets and happy to help with child-related tasks, including meal preparation, tidying up after activities, bedtime routines, and transportation when needed. I have multiple excellent references from families I’ve worked with, and they would be happy to share their experiences. I understand that choosing someone to care for your children is one of the most important decisions a parent can make, and I would be truly honored to earn your trust and become a reliable, caring part of your family’s daily life.

Hannah $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Hannah, I’m 23, and I’ve always had a natural connection with kids and animals. Growing up in a Montessori environment, I spent a lot of time helping with younger students through after school care, crafts, and fun activities, which really shaped my patience and creativity. I’ve also babysat for friends’ children, mostly ages 5 and up, but I’m comfortable around younger kids as well. I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life, so I’m very confident when it comes to pet care. I’m experienced with walking, feeding, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m attentive to their behavior and needs, and I truly enjoy spending time with animals just as much as I do with kids. I aim to create a safe, calm, and fun environment for both children and pets, and I treat every home with respect and care.

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.

"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)."
