Booked by 1 family in Nutley, 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.”

Hi, My name is Aimee and I was born and raised in North Jersey. As a creative, I am a huge advocate for self expression and being yourself. And spending time with children reminds me the importance of that. I've been working with kids for over ten years and as the oldest of five, caring for children and being attentive to their needs is first nature to me. I have experience nannying & babysitting the kids of my neighbors, aunts, uncles etc. Also, I've worked as a Substitute nanny, date-night nanny and as a teacher's assistant in daycare centers/preschools. My favorite part of nannying is when I see a child grow more confident in themselves and their abilities. There's something about seeing a child do something that they thought they couldn't do, it warms my heart :) With your child, I plan to teach them, care for them, go on plenty of walks with them (parks are epic), visit the library, a museum, have a dance party or two and just support their development and individuality. That was a bit about me and I look forward to meeting you! All the best, Aimee A.

“Aimee was great. She was punctual and engaged my 5 year old very well. ”
