Anjanette $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello. My name is Anjanette and I'm currently a substitute teacher at various locations across Jersey, and intern as a copywriter in the city. I graduated from ASU summa cum laude in 2019, and had moved to London for grad school in 2019, returning to the states in 2020 due to the uncertainty surrounding covid-19. I am offering child care, senior care, pet care, some household services (housesitting, etc.), and am happy to provide proof of my fingerprint clearance card. I have significant experience in child-care. I have worked in contracted positions with DCS advising parents and supervising visitations in order to determine appropriateness of returned custody. I have been working as a teacher for the past couple of years, and am able to offer tutoring services, specializing in English, Government, Social Studies, Theatre, and Creative Writing. I have twin 13 year old nephews and enjoy finding ways to play and engage their very different personalties (one dirt bikes and is outdoorsy, and one is interested in engineering and video games.) I was a caretaker for my grandmother and am comfortable with general senior care. I'm not a great cook, but I'm happy to errand run, chat, and accompany seniors to events, or just do wellness checks. I am allergic to cats but happy to work with families with dogs-- I am a huge dog lover. My family has always had big dogs, and I have a stubborn little (35 lbs) dog myself named Beckett.

Britney 3 reviews
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Britney, a 25-year-old marketing professional looking to babysit part-time. I have experience caring for children ranging from toddlers (2 years old) to young teens. I spent a summer regularly caring for a 5 year old during early morning - afternoon shifts, where I handled morning routines, meals, naps, and trips to the park.   I’m patient, attentive, and love keeping kids engaged through reading, games, and creative play, especially when screen time is limited. I’m also happy to accompany children to nearby parks or activities within walking distance or a short subway ride. I aim to create a safe, fun, and structured environment that both kids and parents can feel comfortable with.

Britney is phenomenal with childcare. She pays close attention to needs to ensure that children feel seen. She also has many interests and hobbies that allow her to introduce kids to different art forms and help them with their creativity!
