Growing up in a big family, I was always surrounded by children, which sparked my passion for caregiving early on. As a teen, I began teaching swim lessons to children ages 6 and under and worked as a lifeguard for about three years. During the winter months, I served as a party hostess at a bowling alley, where I was frequently requested by both kids and parents for birthday celebrations! One of my favorite roles was working as a Disney princess at parties and events—a perfect blend of my love for children and performing. I’m a professionally trained singer, and I enjoy playing the piano, guitar, and songwriting. Most recently, I served in the U.S. Air Force as an intelligence analyst for a special operations aircraft. During my time in service, I was honored to be one of the most frequently selected National Anthem performers at the Wing level, and I continue to sing at professional sporting events. I’ve often been described as fun, caring, and extroverted, with a warm and calming presence that helps children—whether shy or spirited—feel safe and at ease around me.

I’m Nikol, a fun, energetic, organized and well certified person who loves both learning and teaching alike! I am CPR, AED & First Aid certified, licensed since she 16 with a clean driving record, am able to swim and have a Bachelor’s degree. I have nannied and babysat children between the ages of newborns to teens for the last 14 years. I love to help out in any way that I can and that includes babysitting. I was a full time nanny up until a few years ago and as of recently, I am doing part time sitting/vacation nannying in addition to my full time job as a flight attendant. I also currently help care for my 4 year old niece & 1 year old nephew on various days. I give my all to the children and families that I connect with and look forward to meeting new kiddos and sharing my fun stories, mediocre singing, crazy dancing and plenty of love with them! I am able to cook quick meals, do simple cleaning tasks, do laundry and run simple errands. If you have any questions regarding my profile, please don't hesitate to send a message my way! I would love to get to know your kiddos :) Thanks for your consideration! POLICIES: **Minimum Hours: I have a minimum 4 hour policy which means that I must be booked for at least 4 hours. If you'd like to book me for less, that is fine as long as I am still being paid for the full 4 hours. --------- I require full payment for the time I am booked regardless of when the parents come home. **Cancellation: If you cancel within 48 hours of the scheduled start time, I expect 50% of payment agreed upon. If you cancel within 24 hours, I expect to receive 100% of the payment. **Emergencies: I am CPR & first aid certified. In the case of an emergency that I feel I am not equipped to handle (ex: severe allergic reaction, fire, medical emergency, etc..) I follow the following plan: 1. Do what I can to ensure child(rens) safety. 2. Call 911. 3. Call Parents. **Interviews: Initially I prefer phone interviews. If it is a working interview, I charge at my minimum rate of per child.

Nikol was our full time nanny from 2016-19, she watched my son from 6 months old up until he was 3. Nikol still watches my son and now his younger brother as well occasionally. She really became part of our family and we all lover her! When she was with us full time she did everything, cooked meals, took him to scheduled activities and doctor appointments, laundry, etc…Nikol is always on time and would work very long hours sometimes. If you want someone who is fun and energetic, who will treat your child like her own, and who is dependable then call Nikol!!!!

Booked by 5 families in Newfoundland, NJ

Hi! I'm a mom of 2 children (both mid 20’s), from Eastern Europe and have been a nanny/household manager/chauffeur for over 25 years on and off. I enjoy being outdoors, singing songs and truly enjoy working with small children (I miss when mine were that age!). Most of my friends refer to me as the child whisperer because somehow I'm always able to make children laugh and smile. I look forward to finding new families to work with and can guarantee you that I will care for your children as if they were my own, as I do with all of the kids I care for. I’m currently looking for a family, preferably for afterschool care and am able to drive (my license is clean and I’ve been a driver for over 20 years). I am a great cook and do not mind cooking for your children. I also don't mind running simple errands and will do very light housework (picking up after kids/laundry). I can drive children in both my car or a parent’s car. Policies: *I have a 4 hour work minimum policy which means that I must be booked and paid for at least 4 hours. I require full payment for the time I am booked regardless of when you are home. **Cancellation: If you cancel within 48 hours of scheduled start time I require 50% payment, 24 hours I require full payment. Please understand that my time is valuable and it's hard to book last minute work. Thank you!

Daniela is absolutely wonderful and very reliable! My son Josiah is 5 now and she has taken care of him multiple times since birth. She communicates with me effectively throughout the day and would ease my anxiety as a first time mom! She always engaged in educational activities, provided loving care, and managed Josiah’s routine with ease, and even though she wasn’t with us daily, every time she stepped in she was able to pick right up from where she left off. If she wasn’t already working full time, I would have snatched her up immediately! Your kids will love her and so will you!

Booked by 2 families in Newfoundland, NJ

Hi! My name is Shimaine, but you can call me Shi (pronounced like “shy”). I’m a loving, fun, and patient caregiver with over 10 years of experience working with people of all ages. My journey started in middle school and high school, babysitting for families in my community. During undergrad, I worked for an on-call nanny agency, gaining even more hands-on experience with children of all ages. I later worked as a CNA and direct care provider, assisting individuals with daily living tasks, light housekeeping, and meal prep. When it comes to kids, I’m all about keeping them entertained and engaged. Whether it’s playing games, doing crafts, or coming up with creative ways to make daily routines more fun. I understand that every child is different, and I know how to connect with them on their level. Currently, I’m a Registered Behavior Technician and working toward my Behavior Analyst certification, so I have plenty of experience with structure, positive reinforcement, and making learning fun. As a dog owner, I’m comfortable with pets and happy to help in pet-friendly homes. I have a reliable vehicle, CPR certification, and a strong commitment to making life easier for families. Looking forward to helping out however I can!

I've worked with and highly recommend Shi as a babysitter! As an RBT, they have exceptional experience working with children, including those with diverse needs. Their patience, creativity, and ability to keep kids engaged make them a fantastic caregiver. Parents can trust that their children are in safe, capable, and caring hands!
