I am a 25 year old woman who arrived to USA from Colombia two years ago. I have full time experience with two kids, one toddler and one 8 year old boy. In addition, I have occasionally taken care of babies and have worked in a school as a counselor. I love taking care of creative kids who like drawing, building, dancing, playing hide and seek or using their imagination to play. But I also enjoy going to the playground and having a good outdoor time. I like pets and do not have any type of allergies. I am a responsible caregiver, a good friend for the kids and I make sure to clean any mess that can exist as a result of our games. As a nanny, I make sure to communicate any questions and update the parents often to make sure they know everything is going well! In the same way, I appreciate clarity in the instructions parents can give me. Every child is different so I know I need time to get to know them and for them to get to know me. That's why I am patient with the process and open to learn quickly. I am ready to start mid February. First language Spanish but fluent in English.
Hi, my name is Lily and I am currently majoring in early childhood education at MCCC. I am very family oriented and first discovered my love for caregiving while looking after my younger cousins. Over the years, this grew into a true passion. Since 2020, I have been babysitting toddlers and infants, and I especially enjoy doing crafts, science experiments, and other fun activities with them while also being a caring and reliable friend. In addition to childcare, I have experience caring for pets. My neighborhood likes to call my house the farm as I have ducks, geese, a dog, a cockatiel, and a snake. I am CPR and First Aid certified through the Red Cross, which allows me to provide an extra level of safety. Whether I’m helping with little ones or looking after pets, I treat every family as if they were my own.
Hi! I’m a 24-year-old childcare professional and a recent graduate of Towson University. I have 8 years of babysitting experience caring for amazing kids anywhere from 3 months all the way up to 13 years old! On top of babysitting, I also work as a YMCA counselor and camp counselor, and I absolutely LOVE children!!! :) I am super big on keeping things safe, structured, and reliable for parents, while making sure the kids are always having fun, staying active, and staying engaged. Whether it's playing creative camp games, diving into arts and crafts, or maintaining a solid bedtime routine, I love bringing high energy and absolute peace of mind to every family I work with!
Hi - My name is Alondra and I'm going to be a freshman in college majoring in Nursing. I'm from Puerto Rico and moved to New Jersey three years ago. I can speak English and Spanish. Im offering occasional employment in child care. I love being a nanny because everyday is different. I enjoy watching them learn and being part of their development feels rewarding. I have been watching infants and toddlers. My responsibilities have included monitoring and/or assisting children daily activities, prepared meals and snacks according to instructions from parents, and assisted parents in establishing and maintaining routines. I have the American Red Cross Babysitting Basics and Adult, Child and Baby First Aid/CPR/AED certifications. I love all animals so animal care while babysitting would be no problem !
Hi I’m Yanyia (Nina), I have been babysitting since I was really young. I am the middle child of 5 kids (3rd) plus my little cousin we adopted, I look after the little ones most of the times. I’ve been working at a day care for over a year, camp counselor and assistant teaching . I love working with children and being able to contribute to their growth. I love having fun, being creative. I’m also great with dealing with frustration ( just here to babysit, NO seniors or pets!!)
