I am passionate about fostering creativity, supporting emotional growth, and ensuring a safe, engaging experience for children of all ages. Additionally, I have a deep love for animals, which further reflects my caring and compassionate nature.

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.

I’m a working professional with a full-time role in analytics at a major book publisher, along with a strong background in both childcare and pet care. I grew up with a mom who was an in-home nanny, so caring for children has always been a natural part of my life. From a young age, I was around children of all ages, from newborns through middle school. For the past six years, I also worked as an art teacher before my recent move to the area, primarily working with kids ages 4–11. My experience also includes youth camp counseling, Girl Scouts, and tutoring, giving me a wide range of experience working with children in both educational and recreational settings. I am Adult and Pediatric CPR and First Aid certified through the American Red Cross, and I take safety, responsibility, and creating a comfortable environment for kids very seriously. I also have extensive experience with pets. I grew up with both dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities, from small terriers to Bernese Mountain Dogs. I’ve provided in-home pet care, dog walking, and pet sitting, and I love getting to know each pet’s individual routine and personality. Overall, I’m dependable, caring, and experienced, and I love being someone families can feel comfortable trusting with their children and pets.
