I am a college student currently pursuing a degree in education, and also have 6 years of experience in childcare. I have experience with children of all ages, particularly school-aged. I believe fostering a fun and warm environment is crucial for a child’s growth and development. For this reason, I love getting creative with activities, whether it be playing games, crafting, or homework. I look forward to working with you to support your child’s needs!

Hi Families! I'm a 22 year old student from Bergen Community College hoping to help take some responsibility off your days. I currently work as a teacher assistant for toddlers ages 2-3 year olds but also help out with Pre-K students, and have elementary aged younger siblings I care for! I am also Child and Baby CPR/ First Aid/ and AED Certified. I also have my own car to provide easy transportation and am located in Secaucus. My goal is to help in the best way I can; I find learning a huge part of growth and love caregiving because I am able to impact a child and their family for the greater good and make memories along the way. I'm lovable, interactive, and work my best to make sure every day is a good day. Hope to hear from you soon :)

Hi, my name is Marie. I am looking to work as a nanny. I have always loved and enjoyed taking care of children - newborns, toddlers, kids. Being a parent has given me a deep understanding of what it takes to support a child’s growth with patience, kindness, structure and consistency. I understand the importance of having someone to care of your children who’s reliable, fun, loving, engaging, and being there to support their physical, emotional and mental needs for healthy development. I can do light housekeeping, drive to appointments, run errands and do other tasks. (I can also be flexible with your schedule!)

I am an honest dependable and reliable woman in my 50"s who is currently an empty nester. I am a very emphatic and compassionate person that loves and truly enjoy working with seniors and children.

Booked by 1 family in Long Island City, NY

Hi, I worked as a part time nanny for occasional weekends or some nights for a family of 5 with three kids ages currently 2,5,9. We have become like family but with the dad having a family member in the home I was no longer needed for the occasional help. I am an accountant for my full time role but for private industry so no crazy hours on my end. I have assisted with homework, class projects and just general educational needs with both the 5 year old and 9 year old. But that’s not all we’ve done, we also enjoy doing arts and crafts and now I can proudly say I can name multiple K-pop groups.

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
