amirah $20 per hour for 1 child

I have a strong background in caregiving that began in my high school years, where I regularly babysat for families in my community. As the second oldest of six girls, I grew up helping care for my five younger sisters, so nurturing, guiding, and supporting children has always been a natural part of my life. I’m comfortable with kids of all ages and understand how to keep them engaged, safe, and cared for. I also have plenty of experience with pets. I grew up with two dogs at my mom’s house and now have one of my own, so I’m very familiar with feeding, walking, and giving animals the attention they need. In addition to childcare and pet care, I’m highly organized and maintain a clean, tidy space. I’m able to help with light housekeeping, daily routines, and anything that keeps a home running smoothly. Overall, I’m patient, responsible, and genuinely enjoy supporting families. My mix of experience, personality, and hands-on caregiving makes me a reliable and trustworthy helper.

Booked by 1 family in Millburn, NJ

Hi! I'm Keziah, a full-time college student studying Business Administration with several years of childcare, tutoring, and camp experience. I've worked with children ranging from infants to pre-teens in both group and one-on-one settings, including supervising children during camp activities and public outings around town. I'm known for being calm, responsible, organized, and dependable. I enjoy creating a fun and comfortable environment for kids while still maintaining structure, safety, and attentiveness. I naturally communicate with children in a respectful and encouraging way that helps them feel heard, confident, and comfortable. In addition to babysitting, I also have experience helping with homework and tutoring in subjects like math and English. I'm certified in Adult and Pediatric First Aid/ CPR/AED, and my availability can be flexible around my college schedule, especially evenings and weekends.

“Keziah has been wonderful with our children including our twin toddlers. She has handled the chaos of our young family with grace and handles the unpredictability of twin toddlers and a preschooler with poise.”
