I love children and children love me. I’m very lucky and blessed, children are enchanted with me and we naturally delight in each others company. I am a highly trained caregiver in providing for your child’s mental, emotional and physical needs. I bring over 25 years of practical experience with children, from infancy through teenage-hood. I’ve had unique opportunities of working with children ranging in needs from being deemed extremely gifted to being a patient in a lock-down psychiatric ward. It’s important to me that children are given the opportunity to and learn to cultivate their ability to: thrive, be resilient, express themselves fully, develop high levels of self-efficacy & self-worth, love and be loved. I love to play! I’m crafty, artsy, musical, adventurous, active, happy and have great boundaries! Children naturally love me, this makes my job very easy. 😍 (I’ve also worked as a private chef, caterer, and personal assistant.) Some of my experiences with children include: -2 summers of teaching K-5 Science and Art for summer school, 4 yrs of substitute teaching, 2.5 years teaching pre-school for 3'-4's, 2yrs as aTiger Cub 'mom', 2 years I ran a Children's Crisis Shelter, 4 yrs I worked in a lock-down Psychiatric Children's Facility. I was a licensed Respite Care Provider and Foster Parent. I contracted with Child Protective Services for 5 years. I created a program working with Autistic boys (1 yr), for 4.5 years I was a Family Builder Specialist and Program Manager, for 2 yrs I was a Child Developmental and Behavioralist Specialist. I have been a temporary, part time, and full time nanny and sitter for over 20years. Over Covid lockdown I ran a private school and course for grades k&1. I volunteer with Big Brothers and Big Sisters, Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts and Adventure Scouts, food kitchens, Women’s DV shelters... Using my expertise in emotions, I teach classes for parents (and also for children) on empowerment, emotional development and intelligence, transformation, and self efficacy/esteem. ** Please note that I have cancellation policy - if you cancel a booking with in a week of, I charge a $50 cancellation fee or 50% of the booking, whichever is higher. After having several last minute cancellations I’ve had to implement this policy, thank you for understanding! **

HI! My name is Mariane, 34 years old. I have my own car and don’t mind driving to the job, max 30 miles distance. I have experience with all ages, from newborns to teenagers. I'm fun and communicative, the kind of babysitter that really sits and play with the kids. I like to find fun activities, like arts&crafts, coloring, or some learning activity. I can help with homework, pick up from school, drive to activities, watch them for a date night or just give you a little break when need it (we all need it right?). I also know how and love to swim! If you have any questions, please feel free to text me, I'm looking forward to work with you!

Hi! I’m Malissa — a reliable, flexible babysitter with 10+ years of experience. I’m 32, have my own car, and work with several wonderful families on both a weekly and occasional basis. I offer date night, overnight, and travel care, as well as pet and house-sitting. I work fully remote Monday–Friday (8–5), which allows me to help with school pickups, bring kids home, and keep them safe and engaged while I finish my workday. I’m happy to work from your home with Wi-Fi and a place to sit—this setup works great for the families I currently support. I’ve cared for children ages 0–17 and can help with homework, meals, light tidying, bedtime routines, and pet care—while making sure your kids are safe, happy, and well cared for. I accept Apple Pay, Zelle, check, and cash, and ask that payment be made by the time I leave. Overnight and travel care are available with custom rates, and I request toll reimbursement when applicable. I love building long-term relationships with families and look forward to meeting you! Warmly, Malissa
