Find a babysitter in Hackensack, NJ

Hi! I'm Irlanda, a caring, dependable, and energetic childcare professional with over 8 years of experience working with infants, toddlers, and young children. I've worked as both a Teacher Assistant and Head Teacher in early childhood education, where I've planned engaging activities, supported children's development, and built strong relationships with families. I'm also completing my Master's degree in TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages), which has strengthened my communication skills and understanding of child development. I love creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children can learn through play, exploration, and creativity. Whether we're reading stories, doing arts and crafts, spending time outdoors, or working on age-appropriate learning activities, I strive to make every child feel supported and encouraged. Families describe me as patient, responsible, organized, and easy to communicate with. I'm comfortable caring for multiple children, preparing meals and snacks, helping with bedtime routines, and keeping parents updated throughout the day. My goal is to give parents peace of mind while ensuring their little ones feel happy, safe, and cared for.

I'm an enthusiastic childcare provider with two years of experience caring for children of various ages. I'm passionate about fostering children's growth and development, and I find great joy in positively impacting their lives. I have a friendly and approachable personality, and I'm very comfortable communicating with parents about their child's day or any issues that arise. I do this via regular updates and verbal communication at pickup. I'm very comfortable enforcing household rules and enjoy playing a variety of games with children, such as educational games that promote learning, board games and puzzles, and outdoor sports and physical games. I have some college education, currently working on my bachelors degree and am CPR and First Aid certified. I'm also bilingual and speak both English and Spanish. I hope to meet you and your child soon, and I look forward to providing them with a safe, nurturing, and fun environment.

Hi! I’m Donna. I’m a warm, patient, and creative person who genuinely loves spending time with kids. I’m an aunt to a 7- and 9-year-old, and we spend our time doing arts and crafts, learning piano, and having real conversations — I always talk to kids like they’re people with their own thoughts, and they respond so well to that. I’ve also worked with children from preschool through high school at a tutoring company in San Diego, supporting them with everything from math to social studies. In my career as a producer, I’m extremely responsible and detail-oriented, so routines, safety, and clear communication come naturally to me. I’m great at planning engaging, screen-free activities and creating a calm, fun environment. I’ve cared for animals for years too — five years of hamsters and even fostering a puppy — so I’m comfortable with pets. Most importantly, I truly value these experiences because I hope to adopt children of my own someday. Spending time with kids brings me joy, and I take the responsibility seriously. Overall, I’m reliable, kind, and easy to work with. I’d love to support your family however I can.

A little bit about me— my name is Maddie and I am 24 years old living on the Upper East Side. I am a full-time data analyst for the National Hockey League. I’ve played sports my entire life and continued to play club lacrosse through college. When I’m not working or being active, I absolutely love cooking! I have over 10 years of experience with children of all ages and needs. I have cared for infants, middle schoolers, and volunteered at special needs camps and after school programs. Some of my responsibilities have included: cooking, running errands, house chores, homework, zoo trips, science experiences, and (my personal favorite) pillow forts. Also, I am very pet-friendly (my family just got a puppy named Robin). I’m looking forward to getting to know your family!

Hi! My name is Giada, and I’m currently a sophomore at CUNY Hunter College studying Social Work. I’m planning to apply to the BSW program, and I’m especially interested in working in mental health and helping others. I’ve always loved babysitting, mostly because I had a babysitter growing up who I really loved and looked forward to spending time with. I’ve been working with children since I was around 14 and have experience caring for toddlers and older children. I’ve also volunteered and worked at a summer camp for young children, which gave me even more experience spending time with and caring for kids. I would describe myself as patient, responsible, and caring. I love being outside with kids when the weather is nice and getting involved in whatever activities they enjoy. I’m also comfortable helping with homework, cooking, and keeping children entertained. Outside of school and babysitting, I enjoy listening to music, reading, and spending time with my friends.
