Myra $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Myra, and I’m a responsible, caring, and dependable babysitter with over 10 years of hands-on childcare experience helping raise my younger siblings from infancy through childhood. I’m very comfortable with daily routines such as feeding, diapering, naps, bedtime, homework help, and supervising multiple children. I’m patient, calm, and safety-focused, and I do my best to create a positive, supportive environment where kids feel comfortable and cared for. I’m also organized, attentive, and respectful of each family’s routines and preferences. I understand how important trust is when choosing a caregiver, and I take that responsibility seriously while making sure children feel happy, engaged, and safe

I am an animal advocate and love them dearly. I am a special education teacher. I have my own animals and bring animals into my classroom and they are wonderful additions to my classroom and my students. I have rescued over 45 bunnies all different breeds and found them loving homes. I have personally fostered kittens, guinea pigs and bottle fed different types of birds. I have experience with dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, birds (parakeets, love birds, green cheek conures and cockatiels). When I was in high school I worked in an exotic pet store.

Booked by 2 families in Clifton, NJ

Hello families! My name is Alyssa. I am 24 years old currently in Grad school for clinical mental health counseling. I work as a substitute teacher as well. I have been a nanny for another family for 4 years now. I am reliable, hard working, fun, energetic, patient, and loving. I love to plan fun activities for the kids and I to do together. I always go above and beyond. I have no problem organizing, doing kids laundry, tidying up, running errands or any of the household services you may need. I want to make your lives easier!

Alyssa was fantastic! She cared for our three kids (ages 2, 4, and 10) and handled the range of ages and needs with ease. She was incredibly attentive, engaged the kids in play, and kept us updated with great communication throughout the evening. We felt completely at ease knowing they were in such capable hands. We’ll definitely be booking her again for future date nights if she’s available!
