Hello! My name is Kasi and I’m a student at AMDA. I am offering childcare, pet care, and household services. I’ve been babysitting since I was 14, volunteered at elementary schools, and worked at a summer camp for 2 years. I am able to tutor, teach crafts, give voice lessons, and on occasion walk to and from school. I am CPR certified. I love to cook, enjoy cleaning and organization. I am able and willing to run errands and do household chores. I love animals and while I have the most experience with dogs I’m willing to learn how to take care of other animals as well.

$28 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in West New York, NJ

Hi! My name is Karolynne born and raised in Jersey City with a Honduran background. I am fluent in both english and spanish. Offering services for Childcare, Senior care and household services. With children I enjoy many activities and keeping them busy and entertained but also assist them in learning while having fun and being safe. I love to get creative with activities during the childcare. I enjoy doing arts and crafts, assisting with homework and going to the park. I tutored during my high school and college years. I love cooking and baking and a hobby is trying new recipes. For Senior Care I can provide driving and cooking assistance. I enjoy senior care because I love long conversations and keeping seniors company. For Household Services, I can cook, assist with cleaning and laundry. I have a very bubbly personality and enjoy being around children and people!

Karolynne was a God send on late notice (less than 24 hours!) to provide childcare assistance to my husband with our 4 year old and 1.5 year old as we were in town (and I was out for 2 days) at a conference. The kids warmed up to her almost immediately including our 1.5 year old who is typically shy, and she was a dream to work with - going the extra mile to tidy up when my husband was prepping food or when she had a free moment. With her help we were able to get the kids out to a nearby playground and spend the days with enriching activities. We could not ask for someone better and wished we could bring her back home with us to be our permanent nanny. We are so grateful to have found her and will be keeping in touch for future visits!

Joy 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Joy and I’m a college student at NYU studying Economics! I am a non-smoker and CPR, AED, Basic Life Support Certified. I have a little sister who’s 12 and I have taken care of her — driving her to and from lessons, going on walks with her, and generally enjoying time whenever I am home from school. I also have experience with grade school aged children and toddlers. I love being around children and their joyful energy is always amazing. I am a flexible babysitter and will treat all kids with the utmost respect and provide quality care. Over high school summers, I was an outdoor pool lifeguard (International Lifeguard Training Program & American Red Cross trained), and I am comfortable with CPR & AED responsibilities. I am also trained in Basic Life Support. On another note, I am happy to help with homework, test prep for older kids, and basic piano/music theory. Feel free to reach out!

Joy is a fantastic caregiver with great attention to detail. My kids are happy every time she comes!
