Tracy $28 per hour for 1 child

Hello. My name is Tracy, and I specialize in comprehensive after-school care. Located in northern NJ, I am seeking a long-term position (10-15 hours a week) to support a family throughout the school year and summer months. I’ve spent years being the "go-to" person for busy parents, managing the delicate balance of homework, tutoring, and getting kids to their various sports and activities on time. I believe in maintaining an organized environment and am happy to help with light household tidying to keep things running smoothly. I’m excited to bring my experience to a new family soon! I am happy to share my many references once we determine my suitability for your family.

Iman $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello, I'm Eman. I have extensive hands-on caregiving experience, having helped raise several children in my family from infancy through adolescence. The youngest is 7, and the oldest will be graduating college in the next few years (I still can't believe it!). Being closely involved in their lives has given me a strong, intuitive understanding of children at every stage. I also have some professional childcare experience from my time at KinderCare, but I thrive most in one-on-one or small-family settings where I can give children my full attention. I’m patient, nurturing, attentive, and genuinely love working with kids—especially toddlers. I’m comfortable with diapers, bottle feeding, and nap routines (may need a short adjustment period if caring for infants). Homework help, reading, and bedtime routines are truly my jam. I enjoy preparing meals or snacks for children and don’t mind tidying toys or children’s spaces, but I focus strictly on childcare and not general household help. I’m fluent in multiple languages and am happy to help with language exposure if parents are interested. I respect family routines, boundaries, and parenting styles, and value clear, open communication. I’m comfortable caring for children of all ages and available for date nights or occasional care during off-hours. I also have experience providing companionship for seniors through listening and quality time. I’m comfortable working in homes with calm, small pets after meeting them, but not large or high-energy animals. Caring for children is more than a job to me—it’s a calling, and I approach every family with responsibility, heart, and genuine care. A little bit about me personally, I studied fashion design and am a dress maker by trade. I love arts and crafts since I was a toddler and am happy to share some of my crafting activities with kids or even parents. I'm trying to be more fit and active and am into indoor rock climbing and orange theory. If anyone has recommendations for good OT coaches, I'm all ears :). Hosting is second nature to me and my family, so recently I started a luxury picnic and party decorating business, which thankfully has been going well. Right now it's the off season so I'm looking to fill the gap with some nannying roles.

Hello everyone, ********Thank you for considering me for a booking request. However, I must request that you refrain from submitting a booking until you have had the opportunity to communicate with me. As a substitute teacher, I am currently unable to accommodate short-notice bookings.********* In my free time, I enjoy nature walks with my family, baking, circuit-based crafts, solving puzzles and Sudoku, making silly songs with my kids, and reading. These activities allow me to keep kids entertained without screens. I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in biology from Montclair State University. Plus, I’ve been teaching online for over five years, and I’ve also worked as a professional nanny and in daycare centers. I am delighted to provide childcare and nurturing for families. I can drive children to parks, museums, ice skating arenas, and sports practices at the YMCA, JCC, and various facilities. I am highly engaging with children of all ages, even when managing multiple children.

Booked by 2 families in Wayne, NJ

Hi! My name is Shimaine, but you can call me Shi (pronounced like “shy”). I’m a loving, fun, and patient caregiver with over 10 years of experience working with people of all ages. My journey started in middle school and high school, babysitting for families in my community. During undergrad, I worked for an on-call nanny agency, gaining even more hands-on experience with children of all ages. I later worked as a CNA and direct care provider, assisting individuals with daily living tasks, light housekeeping, and meal prep. When it comes to kids, I’m all about keeping them entertained and engaged. Whether it’s playing games, doing crafts, or coming up with creative ways to make daily routines more fun. I understand that every child is different, and I know how to connect with them on their level. Currently, I’m a Registered Behavior Technician and working toward my Behavior Analyst certification, so I have plenty of experience with structure, positive reinforcement, and making learning fun. As a dog owner, I’m comfortable with pets and happy to help in pet-friendly homes. I have a reliable vehicle, CPR certification, and a strong commitment to making life easier for families. Looking forward to helping out however I can!

“I've worked with and highly recommend Shi as a babysitter! As an RBT, they have exceptional experience working with children, including those with diverse needs. Their patience, creativity, and ability to keep kids engaged make them a fantastic caregiver. Parents can trust that their children are in safe, capable, and caring hands!”

Thaisv $30 per hour for 1 child

Hello, My name is Vanessa, and I am a high school teacher. I taught language arts for 20 years and am currently in the discipline department at a high school. I have experience with children and pets, and I speak fluent Spanish and English. I have helped take care of my grandmother, so I can assist in taking care of an elderly person. I am organized, disciplined, and caring. I also have two dogs and a bird, so I am experienced in caring for animals.
