Booked by 5 families in Rumson, NJ

Hi, my name is Melissa and I'm currently a student at Hunter College. I'm offering child care, pet care, and household services. I have experience with children of different ages, from toddlers to older kids. I enjoy keeping them engaged through fun activities like arts and crafts, reading, and outdoor play. I'm comfortable with following routines, and making sure kids are safe and happy. I love animals and have experience caring for dogs, I can walk, feed, play, and give them lots of attention. I can also help around the house with light cleaning, laundry, errands, and organization. I'm responsible, dependable, and easy to get along with, and I always try to create a positive and supportive environment wherever I work.

“Melissa was wonderful. My daughter (4) loved playing with her and keeps asking her to come back. Highly recommend!”

Atmavidya 1 review

Glorious Day! I am Atmavidya "Adryn" Mari. I am a Bhakti Yoga practitioner who recently relocated from Houston, Texas, to New York City to teach Eastern Yogic Philosophy to high school youth. I am a certified Ayurvedic Practitioner with a B.S. in Marketing and Supply Chain Management, yet my passion resides in the cultivation of sustainable living and lifestyle choices through Bhakti Yoga. Recently, I have been using my Ayurvedic degree to support individuals and families to transition their kitchens to be more environmentally conscious with a local, whole foods focus. This is something I am enthused to speak of more and happy to integrate into my interactions with your family, if interested. I taught three years of gardening classes at Durham Elementary while living in Houston. It was a gift to witness the enthusiasm and wonder of young minds experiencing food grown through their influence. I have also tutored in English and facilitated an after school program at a middle school in Northern California. I enjoy allowing children exploratory experiences as their minds are young and shaped by engagement. I tend to give children parameters, rather than hard rules. I love reading with a cup of herbal tea or chai, taking nature walks, playing in the garden, visiting the farmer's market, meal prepping, experimental food creations, painting, coloring, embroidery and laying in the grass looking at the sky. These are all activities I am open to sharing with your child(ren). Caveat: I am a strict vegetarian, so I am unable to feed or cook with meat, eggs, or fish. Yet, my child-friendly cooking skills are on point - Mac n cheese, mashed potatoes, marinara with hidden vegetables, fruit salad, blueberry pancakes, just to name a few. My smile is contagious. I appreciate sharing hugs. I am overly honest and handle feedback well. Thank you for taking the time to read my bio and consider me as member of your success team. Looking forward to getting to know you and supporting your family, if my profile resonates. May the universe continue to share an abundance of love.

“Adryn has babysat for me many times. She was incredibly thoughtful and nurturing to my little one. She created space for both active play and intentional rest. My daughter was usually fully engaged in activities when I came to pick her up and she couldn’t wait to hang out with Adryn again. I felt very comfortable leaving my daughter with her, knowing she would be well fed, respected, and cared for.”

Booked by 1 family in Rumson, NJ

II’m a student at Pace University, majoring in Writing for Diversity and Equity in Theatre and Media, with 4+ years of experience working with children through the City of Rockville, leading camps and creating fun, safe, and engaging activities. I also have babysitting experience caring for children ranging from 6 months to 13 years old, as well as experience with Young Artists Academy, where I supported young performers through theatre and creative activities. Additionally, I have experience in elderly care, where I developed patience, compassion, and a strong sense of responsibility while helping others feel comfortable, supported, and cared for. I’m patient, responsible, energetic, and great at keeping kids engaged while making them feel safe and valued. I love creating a positive environment where children can learn, play, explore their creativity, and express themselves while providing compassionate care and support to people of all ages!
