I am an experienced early childhood educator with 5 years of teaching experience in early preschool and preschool classrooms.

I recently moved to Highland Park and will be starting my doctoral degree in Clinical Psychology at Rutgers (New Brunswick) this September. At the moment, I am only looking for occasional babysitting jobs. Before moving to NJ this summer, I lived in New York City for five years while completing my master’s degree at Columbia University and working in the field of youth mental health. My education in Clinical Psychology, along with my undergraduate degree in Psychology and Child Development from UC Davis, has given me a strong understanding of child development, behavior, and children’s needs. I have over 10 years of experience working with children of all ages in a variety of settings. I’ve had numerous part-time nanny and babysitting jobs with children ranging from newborns to 15 years old. I also worked as a camp counselor for many years and as a math and reading tutor. I’m happy to help with homework, tutoring, and even college applications. I am reliable, extremely empathetic, kind, and funny, and I easily connect with kids to create a fun and safe environment. Lastly, I am a big animal lover and am open to pet sitting jobs as well!

“Wonderful, responsible, and kind. Hope we can work with her again. ”

Hi! I’m Chloe, a ER nurse with over 8 years of experience working with children. I’m CPR certified, dependable, and passionate about creating a safe, fun, and engaging environment where kids can thrive. Before becoming a nurse, I spent over 5 years performing as a princess at Disneyland, bringing creativity, imagination, and joy to children every day. I’ve also worked in classrooms, volunteered through my church, and led a boot camp for more than 100 girls ages 3–12. I have a reliable car with a clean driving record and am happy to help with school pick-ups, drop-offs, transportation to activities, and errands. Babysitting is something I genuinely enjoy because I love building relationships with families. Whether we’re playing outside, doing crafts, baking, reading, or playing games, I strive to keep children active, engaged, and having fun while always prioritizing their safety. I’m calm, responsible, and adaptable, and I’m happy to follow your family’s routines and parenting style.
