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.
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.

Hello, my name is Jael, my four years of experience caring for children aged newborn to 12 have solidified my commitment to providing a safe, engaging, and supportive environment. I am a warm, dependable, and highly engaged professional nanny with hands-on experience providing full-time care for infants and toddlers. I am currently caring for a 13-month-old child and have been with the same family for six months, supporting his development from infancy into toddlerhood. I am experienced with bottle feeding, transitioning to solid foods, diapering, age-appropriate play, reading, outdoor activities, neighborhood walks, park and pool outings, and educational excursions. I prioritize creating a safe, nurturing, structured, and engaging environment where children can explore, learn, and develop with confidence. My professional background as a dancer, choreographer, and educator also allows me to bring creativity, movement, music, and imaginative play into children's daily routines. I am dependable, attentive, organized, comfortable with pets, and happy to assist with child-related household tasks and additional family support as needed. I would love to be considered and learn more about your families needs. I am previously CPR and First Aid certified and am getting renewed before my next position. I have a car, I am comfortable with pets if you have any, and I do not smoke. I am eager to learn more about your family and how I can help your child thrive. I am happy to provide references upon request!
