Find a babysitter in Union City, NJ

Hi there! I have over 5 years of paid experience in babysitting. I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Speech Therapy and am currently working on my Master’s degree. I’ve always loved working with children from a young age and would volunteer at daycares which is when my interest first began. Growing up in a big family, and becoming an aunt at an early age I’ve always been surrounded by young children and the love of working and caring with children only continued to grow. Which led me to pursue a career in speech therapy, where I could continue to foster and help children grow. I know sign language in addition to English, and could help with all homework types. I’ve worked with children with varying developmental needs, such as children on the spectrum, children with learning disabilities or those with speech delays. I am great with play time, crafts, and overall entertaining the children in things they might enjoy. I’m happy to answer any questions and see if I’m the right fit for your family!

Hi! I'm Nicole (: I love connecting with people of all ages and am offering childcare, pet care, senior care and household services. Background & Approach: I bring a calm, patient, but firm presence, leading with compassion, curiosity, and communicating clear expectations. A teacher at heart, I believe structure provides safety and I encourage collaborative problem-solving. Over the last decade, I taught middle school for 6 years and worked with young children. My experience with infants includes caring for both of my nieces. Also, I have worked as a Direct Service Professional for young children and adults with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities, in their homes and group homes, respectively. I am comfortable with travel, from school to home or extracurriculars and social outings. I enjoy facilitating play and exploring others' interests with them, eager to help develop their strengths if I can. I highly value modeling and teaching consent from an early age. Certifications: - Adult First Aid/CPR - Youth Mental Health Aid - Completed an end-of-life training/planning program as a death doula (with Alua Arthur, she is amazing!) and embrace discussing the things that make life both hard & beautiful. Pets: I grew up with animals, a Pomeranian mix and later a Pitbull mix (sadly, he was not friendly), so I am comfortable with various sizes, temperaments, and needs and often pet sit for family. I love cats, too and am a quick learner. Household Services: basic cooking & cleaning, washing dishes, sweeping, dusting, vacuuming, organizing, and in-home laundry. Currently, I spend my time supporting my sister and brother-in-law with childcare for my 2-month-old and 7-year-old nieces, and I am obsessed with them. <3 I enjoy playing cozy video games, learning coding and data analysis/visualization, listening to audiobooks, and practicing Filipino martial arts.

I am a thoughtful, calm, and adaptable individual with a genuine passion for working with young children. For two years, I worked at an Early Learning Center at a private school in NYC, with a focus on early childhood ages 2-5. My background also includes an internship at Headstart and experience at a pediatric dental office, providing me a well-rounded foundation in child-focused environments. I am currently pursuing my MSW at NYU with the goal of becoming an elementary school social worker. My key strengths include (as a native NYer!) are patience, communication, and creative problem solving. I am also a huge dog lover.

Hello! My name is Melissa, I'm 21 years old, and I'm a student looking for a part time babysitting job. As a person with a large family, I have been collecting childcare experience from a very early age. The bulk of my professional experience with children comes from teaching roles. I worked at Brooklyn Museum for two years as an art programs educator in both hands on workshop settings and as a formal tour guide in the galleries. Outside of the formal settings, I used to work as a freelance children's party entertainer. I also taught kids 4-6 literacy skills over the summer as a teen. I am available on weekends and some weekdays after 4:30 p.m. Please give me an idea of your family's needs/schedule and I will do my best to accommodate you! My hourly rate is flexible. Contact me with your budget and I will try to work with you.
