Hello! I’m Mi’Angel (Pronounced My angel, but you can call me Mya if it’s easier!) And i’m currently a senior in college at Rutgers university. I’m honored to have the opportunity to babysit for your family! I’m very kind, energetic, and I love to learn. I have strong time management skills and I have lots of experience working with children. Including babysitting my 8 nephews ranging from age 0-6, and working at a summer camp when I was 13-14. I’m also extremely patient and have experience with children with special needs. I also love animals! So pets are not a problem for me. I also have a very reliable car so transportation isn’t a problem either. I’m excited to work with you and make things easier for your family while you’re away and busy. Feel free to message me if you have any questions!

Miangel was incredible! She looked after my 21 month old son and was so sweet. Will definitely be booking her again
