Booked by 7 families in Secaucus, NJ

Hello! My name is Ana and I am offering child care and pet care. I love babysitting and have watched toddlers, kids, dogs, and cats (also can do other animals!). My responsibilities included keeping the kids entertained, helping them with their schoolwork, putting them into bed, cooking for them, and even picking them up from school. With dogs and cats - my responsibilities are taking the dogs out for a walk, keeping up the training routines, and at times keeping the dog company. For cats — I make sure they are feed and the litter box is cleaned (which is super important especially for cats), if the cat is playful - I enjoy playing with them. If not, I can sit there and enjoy each other’s company. Whichever flows their boats. I can sail around them. I dog trained for 3 years at Petco from 2016 - 2018 (I still practice my skills on my cat and other dogs I meet) I have worked with various dogs like Hound dogs, Poodles, Corgis, and the list can go on. Cats! I have one of my own and her name is Leche. She is the sweetest. I love taking care of pets and children. I love engaging with them and helping others with their little ones (animals and children). There’s a joy that comes with being an extra hand and being at service for others. I have not yet cared for Seniors but happy to be a caretaker. Hope to be your sitter, Ana :)

Booked by 1 family in Secaucus, NJ

Hi- My name is Taisha and I am offering child care, senior care, and household services. I love being a babysitter, as the oldest of my family I have been watching my siblings and cousins as well as newborns, infants and toddlers, since I was 14 years old. My responsibilities have included drop off and pick up/from school, crafts, tutoring, and teaching. I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean, and run errands. I have been a caretaker for my own grandparents I can cook, accompany them to appointments, or do other tasks. I am allergic to dogs.

Taisha is reliable, punctual, and professional. I was worried that my dad would not be comfortable having someone other than myself help him during the day, but he had the best things to say.

Hi! I’m a mom of a loving almost 3-year-old toddler with plenty of hands-on experience caring for young children. I understand the importance of patience, safety, and creating a nurturing environment. I’m looking for a position where I can provide reliable, caring support for your little ones—just as I do for my own.

Hi! I am 21 years old and attend Oberlin College in Ohio where I'm studying psychology. I grew up in Brooklyn Heights and have lived here my whole life, so I am comfortable with public transportation, going to park, and other fun attractions for kids.When home on breaks, I live with my two parents, older brother, younger sister and dog. I have experience sitting for kids ages 1-9; this includes playing with them and getting them dinner together, bathing them and putting them in pjs, and reading books to put them to sleep. Sometimes I would bring my dog because one girl loved to play with him. I am allergic to dogs and cats, but I am able to work with families who have dogs that do not shed. In my free time I love to bake, paint, sew, play frisbee, and take my dog to the park. While my certification has lapsed, I have taken courses in CPR and first aid.

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
