Booked by 2 families in Fairview, NJ

Hello! My name is Megan. I have a Bachelor's in Musical Theatre with a Communication minor. I have a vast experience working with children--I have helped with many theatre camps and productions that cast children and have been in charge of watching/ entertaining/ organizing a large group. I have a more intimate experience nannying my (almost 2!) niece from the time she was about 3 months old. I love being around kids--I love stories and music (hence my major!) and I feel at ease around children and want to make them happier and learn as much as they can!

Kamila 1 review

Booked by 1 family in Fairview, NJ

Hello everyone! My name is Kamila and I have been living in NYC for a little over 6 years. I moved here after going to music school in Boston. I’m a singing songwriter and work within arts administration/operations. Since moving to the city, I have worked with children ages 3 to 11, and I’ve learned so much. I enjoy fostering a sense of creativity and playfulness in the kids I get to hang with, and I’ve also taught beginner piano lessons for families around NYC and Brooklyn. I also have been petsitting/housesitting for doggies and kitties on the east and west coasts of the US and abroad over the last 3-4 years. I look forward to meeting you and getting to know your family :)

Without hesitation, if you are looking for someone to care for your child/children…look no further! Kamila’s kindhearted and creative sensibilities allow her to engage with children at their level while still ensuring structure when needed. Our 5 year old son always looked forward to having her care for him. Kamila would respond promptly to my texts/calls while caring for him and would also send pictures of their day together. Kamila was very accommodating in many ways, from last minute care requests, to caring for him in untraditional locations (like in a recreation complex), to even helping support our family while moving. She consistently arrived to work on time and never called out last minute. (In fact, I’m not sure she ever called out!) Even though we only had Kamila with our family for a few months before she moved, she quickly became a delightful addition to our family. She would be the same for you.....enjoy!

Booked by 6 families in Fairview, NJ

Hi! I’m Divya, a 26-year-old finance professional living in NYC. I’m available in the evenings and on weekends and I love spending time with kids and helping families out. I’ve been caring for children for many years-from keeping infants and little ones entertained with games and crafts to helping older kids with homework or getting them to activities on time. I’m happy to help with light housework, laundry, or meal prep, and I’m always up for a trip to the park or some fun, active play. Families tell me I’m energetic, caring, and easy to work with. I make it a priority to create a safe, happy, and engaging environment for kids, whether we’re cooking together, doing a puzzle, or winding down with a story. * I am CPR and First Aid certified

$27 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 5 families in Fairview, NJ

Hi! My name is Jasmin, and I am a responsible and caring babysitter with 14 years of experience working with children of all ages, from infants to preteens. I am passionate about providing a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for your little ones. I believe in engaging children in creative activities such as arts and crafts, outdoor play, and educational games. I am also comfortable helping with homework, meal preparation, and light household duties as needed. I am not CPR and First Aid certified, but I am willing to get certified. I understand the importance of clear communication, so I make it a priority to work closely with parents to meet the unique needs of their families. I expect payment for the full time of the original booking. If a booking is cancelled within 24 hours of the start time, the full rate will still be due. Cancellations made within 48 hours of the start time will require a 50% payment, as it can be difficult to secure alternative work on short notice. I look forward to meeting you and your children!

Jasmin 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. Jasmin 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 fun; An absolute pleasure to work with.
