Ashanti $20 per hour for 1 child

I’m an art teacher with nearly 10 years of experience working with children of various ages. Over the years, I’ve worked as an after-school counselor, a camp counselor, and currently as a full-time teacher. These roles have given me a strong foundation in child development, classroom management, and creating engaging, structured environments where kids feel both supported and inspired. What makes me a great caregiver is my personality as much as my experience. I’m very personable, patient, and kind, and I naturally connect with children by being a bit silly and playful while still maintaining clear boundaries. I believe in building genuine relationships with kids—so they feel safe, heard, and comfortable being themselves—not just seeing me as an authority figure. In addition to childcare, I’m also comfortable supporting light household needs and maintaining an organized, calm environment. As for pets, I grew up with cats and currently have one of my own, so I’m very familiar with daily pet care, feeding routines, and understanding animal behavior. I’m comfortable caring for cats and open to supporting families with pets as well. Overall, I bring a balance of creativity, responsibility, warmth, and structure to any caregiving role.

Buket $30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Montclair, NJ

Hello families! My name is Buket, I’m 27 years old and I recently completed a 2-year au pair program in the U.S., where I cared for two amazing children. Before that, I worked as an English teacher in Turkey with kids aged 2 to 12. I’m a warm, patient, and responsible person who genuinely enjoys spending time with children and helping them grow. My background in both education and childcare has helped me develop strong communication and problem-solving skills. I’m also experienced with infants — I know how to change diapers, prepare bottles and light meals, and follow nap routines. For older kids, I enjoy engaging them in creative, fun, and educational activities. I can also help with light housekeeping, laundry, and organization. In addition to childcare, I have experience as a dog sitter and am comfortable being around pets. I have strong references available from both families and host parents who can vouch for my reliability, kindness, and dedication. I look forward to meeting your family and becoming a trusted part of your child’s daily life!

Oluwabukunmi $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi- My name is Olu, and i’m currently a freshman in college and work as an assistant teacher at a daycare in Madison, where I’ve been for about a year. In my role, I supervise playtime, lead simple learning activities, help with meals and naps, and make sure the children are in a safe, supportive environment throughout the day. I’ve been working with kids since I was about 13 and have experience with children of different ages, though I have the most experience with kids between the ages of 1 and 6. Working with younger children has helped me develop a lot of patience and attentiveness, and I’m very comfortable helping manage routines while still making sure kids are having fun. I’m CPR certified and always prioritize safety and communication with families. I enjoy doing different activities with kids such as reading, crafts, games, and outdoor play, and I usually adapt to what the children are interested in so they feel comfortable and engaged. In addition to supervising and playing with the kids, I’m also happy to help with basic caregiving tasks like preparing simple meals and helping with bath time when needed. Families often describe me as dependable, calm, and easy to communicate with, and I look forward to the opportunity to support your family and provide a safe, fun environment for your children.
