Booked by 8 families in Peapack, NJ

Hi families, I’m Nosi pronounced Nosee. I am an extremely happy and loving individual who is passionate about helping others. With over 7 years of experience, I have worked as both an Au Pair and a full- time nanny, providing exceptional care to children ranging from 4 weeks to 14 years old. As a vaccinated nanny, I am committed to ensuring a safe and nurturing environment for the children in my care. I truly enjoy working with children, supporting their growth.I love engaging in activities such as outdoor adventures, arts and crafts, baking, and reading, always striving to make each day memorable and enjoyable for the kids I care for. Having had the privilege of becoming a part of many families' lives, childcare is truly one of my greatest passions. Outside of work I enjoy reading, yoga, exploring new dining spots, sightseeing, and visiting places with waterfalls and beaches.

“Nosipho was on time, warm, and immediately connected with my kid by getting down to his level. Very easy-going and my son was very comfortable with her. Would definitely recommend!”

Booked by 5 families in Peapack, NJ

Hi there! My name is Shaniyah, and I've been caring for and teaching kids for over 10 years. I've worked as a nanny, teacher, and childcare provider, and I truly love what I do. I hold both a bachelor's and a master's degree, and I'm currently pursuing my second master's because I believe in always learning and growing. I recently graduated from Rutgers University's Mason Gross School of the Arts and the New York Film Academy's Acting for Film program. I'm also a proud U. S. Army veteran, which has taught me responsibility, reliability, and how to handle any situation with calm confidence. Families describe me as warm, creative, and trustworthy. I bring patience, positivity, and structure to every home I work in, and I love creating fun, enriching experiences that help kids learn and grow. Working with children has always been one of my greatest joys, and I'd be honored to support your family however I can.

Amanda $40 per hour for 1 child

I am a dedicated educator and parent with 17 years of Elementary teaching experience and a Master’s degree in School Counseling. Over nearly two decades, I have guided children of all ages through their academic, social, and emotional development. My background in school counseling equips me with a deeply empathetic, patient approach, allowing me to connect with children on their level, foster emotional resilience, and tailor activities to their unique learning styles. As a parent of two children of my own, I bring both professional expertise and real-world parenting instincts to every family I support. I understand firsthand the trust it takes to hand off your little ones, as well as the importance of maintaining a safe, calm, and joyful household rhythm. Whether guiding homework, leading creative projects, or facilitating positive play, my goal is to create a warm environment where your child feels heard, confident, and engaged. I am also a big cat lover with three of my own, as well as a snake and hamster as pets! I look forward to partnering with your family!
