Myra $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Myra, and I’m a responsible, caring, and dependable babysitter with over 10 years of hands-on childcare experience helping raise my younger siblings from infancy through childhood. I’m very comfortable with daily routines such as feeding, diapering, naps, bedtime, homework help, and supervising multiple children. I’m patient, calm, and safety-focused, and I do my best to create a positive, supportive environment where kids feel comfortable and cared for. I’m also organized, attentive, and respectful of each family’s routines and preferences. I understand how important trust is when choosing a caregiver, and I take that responsibility seriously while making sure children feel happy, engaged, and safe

Julia $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Julia, an experienced educator with a degree in Early Childhood Education and a background working with children from preschool through high school. I currently work in special education and have experience supporting children with different learning and developmental needs. I’m patient, caring, and love creating a fun and comfortable environment where kids can be themselves. I’m also an animal lover with experience caring for dogs, cats, and other pets, so I’m happy to help with pet care while babysitting as well! Whether your family needs occasional date-night care, weekend help, or support during school breaks, I’d love to help.

Booked by 1 family in Roselle Park, NJ

I’m a 20 year old college student looking mainly for weekend work/ part time to help pay for school. I don’t have much paid experience but I have lots of personal experience. When I was younger my mom was a nanny and I was always her little assistant helping out with the kids she looked after ranging from ages 1-8. I also have a niece that I look after every now and then who just turned 4. Lastly throughout the week I work as a pediatric dental assistant so caring for kids comes naturally! If you have pets I have experience on caring for reptiles, cats and dogs. Cpr/ first aid/BLS certified: ✅ Meals and light housekeeping: ✅ Own transportation:✅

Anbriel $25 per hour for 1 child

I have a background in psychology and three years of experience working with children aged 2 to 12. This experience has allowed me to support children’s emotional, social, and developmental needs while managing behavior and creating a nurturing environment. My academic training gives me a strong foundation in child development, which I use to guide my caregiving approach. I am empathetic, patient, and adaptable, always aiming to connect with children and provide them with the support they need to thrive. I excel at managing behavior, offering emotional support, and implementing age-appropriate developmental activities. While my focus has been on children, I am also skilled in handling household services, ensuring an organized and positive environment for families. My nurturing and caring nature, combined with my understanding of psychology, makes me an effective and compassionate caregiver.

Jordan $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name's Jordan! Before I joined the corporate world, I spent 7 years coaching children from ages 4-18 in competitive cheerleading. I also doubled as their camp counselor for 4 of those summers. I'm hoping to help out parents in need of a date night, extra hours at work, time to themselves, etc. There aren't many kids in finance! So I thought this would be a good way to reconnect with them, while helping families out. I can also care for your pets if needed - assuming they're okay with new people. I am prepared to keep your children entertained with whichever activity you prefer! Whether that be helping with their homework, reading to/with them, playing games, etc. I can take them to the park, to school, whatever you need!
