Fizha $16 per hour for 1 child

I’m a caring, reliable, and responsible caregiver with years of experience caring for children. As an aunt to 15 nieces and nephews, I’ve been helping care for kids since I was 10 years old and have experience with children of different ages and personalities. I’m very comfortable around kids and tend to connect with them easily—I’m often the person they are excited to see! I’m patient, attentive, dependable, and enjoy keeping children engaged through play, activities, and outings. I also have my own car and can safely take children to nearby activities, parks, libraries, appointments, or other approved locations. My goal is always to make sure children feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while giving parents peace of mind.

Booked by 3 families in Dunellen, NJ

I am a pre-med biology graduate from Morgan State University and a certified medical assistant. These studies have strengthened my understanding of health and safety, which is crucial to being a competent caregiver. As I continue my path of education, I hope to become a pediatrician who expresses my genuine compassion for caring for kids, not just physically but emotionally as well. As one of the oldest kids in my family, I have been accustomed to babysitting for quite some time. From babysitting my newborn nieces and nephews overnight to watching my cousins for almost a week. I also have experience in animal sitting for 2 years, whether that be dogs, cats, and even hamsters. Caregiving has been a pivotal part of my life since I was younger, growing up in my household. Having to assist my younger brother and sister with homework, cooking them dinner, and being a beacon of knowledge, care, and love for them. I love caregiving because I enjoy being a dependable person that people can count on. It gives me a sense of purpose because I know that I am playing an essential role in their life. Constantly showing up and being present, supporting their development, reminds me that even little, everyday actions such as these are the ones that make a difference and create a village for kids to be nurtured and grow healthily.

“On time, kids were very comfortable and had fun while my husband and I went to the movies! ”

I am a dedicated educator and parent with 17 years of Elementary teaching experience and a Master’s degree in School Counseling. Over nearly two decades, I have guided children of all ages through their academic, social, and emotional development.
