Hi! My name is Jenna and I’m currently a sophomore at Quinnipiac University. I’d love to help out families by providing child care, pet care, or general household help! I’ve been a long-time babysitter for many families in my area since before I could drive, and I often watch and walk dogs through the Wag! app. I can be very active with kids and play any sports/games they want, but I’m also very crafty and love to just talk and watch movies! I’m also CPR certified and a licensed child care provider through the HMH certification course. Im also available to run errands and help with cleaning or laundry! I love to drive and shop, and I’ve been my mothers personal errand-runner for years with great reviews. And after being to college, there is nothing I’m not ready to clean!

Jenna accepted my last minute booking and arrived early. She was very upbeat and a pleasure to be around. She confidently handled my toddler twin boys who enjoyed playing with her. I would not hesitate to hire Jenna again as a babysitter.

Jackelin $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a caring, dependable, and patient caregiver with nearly five years of experience supporting children and families. I have worked as a Teacher Assistant in a daycare with children ages 18 months to 5 years, helping with daily routines, learning activities, behavior guidance, meals, and creating a safe, fun environment. As the oldest of four siblings, I also helped care for my younger brothers and sister from the time they were born. My youngest sibling is now 8 years old, giving me years of hands-on experience with infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. In addition, I have extensive experience working with children and families through New Jersey’s child welfare system, where I supported parents, monitored child safety, and connected families with resources. I’m bilingual in English and Spanish and have completed my Master’s in Social Work, along with Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) training. I believe in positive reinforcement, kindness, and building trusting relationships with every child. I’m happy to assist with homework, playtime, light meal preparation, bedtime routines, transportation, light housekeeping, and pet care. Families can count on me to be responsible, organized, compassionate, and dedicated to providing safe, nurturing, and reliable care.

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!

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. I will treat your babies as I treat mine with love and care. I treat my animals as if they were my children. If you would like to schedule a meeting please contact me.[removed]. Please ask me any questions. I am also fingers printed. Thank you for reading my bio, Michelle
