Find a babysitter in South Hackensack, NJ

Hi all! I am Elizabeth Martel, a 23 year old female currently living on the Upper West Side! I am from Dallas, TX and I moved to NYC in May 2025 and have loved every second of it since! I’m a paralegal at a law firm where I spend my days, but in my evenings and on the weekends I love babysitting. When first moving to New York I really wanted to get into babysitting as it was something I enjoyed doing back home and was a good way to dive into my new city. Since then I have grown my babysitting connections and now have over 8 families I consistently babysit for all over the city. I mainly sit for infants/ and new borns, but also have experience with a wide range of ages from newborn - 11 years old. I am CPR certified, comfortable in high stress situations, and good at juggling multiple tasks. The children’s safety is always my top priority. I’m always available to have a meeting before as well!

Hello there! I hold an MA in Counseling Psychology and a BA in Elementary Education & Theatre Arts. As a previous educator and childcare provider, I have served children in various settings (i.e. full-time nanny, teacher, and camp counselor) for over 15 years. I am available to do light housework (tidying, organizing), meal prep, and homework help as needed. When I am not working as a psychotherapist I can be found in nature, dancing, writing, and enjoying the arts!

Hi! My name is Jessica, but I go by Jessi! I'm from Austin, Texas, but I'm attending school at Fordham College at Lincoln Center and studying Psychology! For many years, I have routinely worked with kids anywhere from ages 1 to 12 between my jobs as an assistant coach for a little league swim team, babysitter for families in my area, and a summer camp counselor. I am good with homework help, routines, and entertainment. I've always loved working with kids and pets, as I grew up with two sisters, a total of eight dogs, three ferrets, two guinea pigs, and one cat; not all at once of course.

Hi all! Iam a very empathetic and trustworthy caregiver who is extremely reliable. Iam very respectful and have a heart of gold! Personally, I take a child-centered approach. Although I’m happy to introduce fun activities and make suggestions, I’m even more interested in listening to what children are into and encouraging them to explore. This means that I’m willing to allow them to, for instance, climb on playground equipment that they may not be familiar with, which means I will shadow them to prevent any falls. Most importantly, It is important to me that you as the parent, and I as the caretaker are on the same page about how you want your children to be taken care of. I also assist with H.W, bedtime routine, meal prep, medication administration, hygiene care, all while under DIRECT supervision. For my infants, Iam experienced in warming and unfreezing breast milk, burping, Iam able to tell if a child is hungry or tired, diaper changing and how to properly hold a little one, especially before their neck is strong. One of my FAVORITE moments while babysitting, is when one of my kiddos who is on the spectrum, after YEARS of turning down anything that wasn’t a chicken nugget or pizza, FINALLY took his first few bites of a different food with ME! I can’t explain how extremely happy i felt. After YEARS of patience, understanding, determination and emotional support, we hit a goal TOGETHER! I can go on and on about my rewarding experience as a caretaker, but I’m not sure if I’ll ever stop! I look forward to working with you and your family!
