Qualeah $17 per hour for 1 child

Hey, My name is Qualeah. I am a 18 year old college student. I am from the tristate and currently a college student at Rowan University. I am majoring in exercise science in hopes of becoming a nurse. I can wash dishes, clean up, read bed time stories. I am very attentive, responsible, and reliable as a teenager. I have CPR/ first aid training just in case of any emergencies. I’ve babysat kids many times, helped my grandma with daily tasks, and cared for dogs by feeding and walking them. I’m dependable, organized, and easy to get along with, which makes me a great caregiver for kids, seniors, or animals.

$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 26 families in Sewell, NJ

Hello parents, families and those seeking help in the NJ area! I’m a New Jersey–based sitter available up to 4 hours a day, 2–3 days a week. I offer gentle, attentive care for infants through age 3, light pet care for pets that don’t need a lot of physical activity, and limited senior support like rides to doctor appointments or quick drop-in visits for medication reminders and light mobility exercises. I focus on calm, low-stress care so I can show up fully and reliably. If this sounds like a good fit, I’d love to connect!

“Iesha was great with my boys… My 10 year old said she’s the best babysitter they’ve EVER had!!!”

Solei $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Solei. I am a Registered Nurse with nearly 10 years of pediatric nursing experience and recently earned my Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) degree. Throughout my career, I have worked closely with children and families in a variety of healthcare settings and currently serve as a school nurse, where I provide daily care, health education, and support to students of all ages. I am compassionate, dependable, patient, and attentive to each child’s individual needs. My medical background allows me to confidently manage health concerns, emergencies, medications, and developmental needs while creating a safe, nurturing environment. Families often describe me as calm, trustworthy, and easy to communicate with. In addition to childcare, I am happy to assist with light household tasks and help maintain a structured, positive routine for children.

Booked by 7 families in Sewell, NJ

My name is Kate, and I am a 34-year-old elementary school teacher living in South Philly. I have my bachelor's and master's degrees in education, and I have been teaching for 12 years. I have worked with numerous grade levels (K, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 & 7th) in Pennsylvania and South Florida. I currently teach 2nd grade in South Philly. Beyond that, I was previously a babysitter for years while in college, a swim instructor and life guard, and I still hold my CPR/AED certification. I also have up-to-date PA Child Abuse clearances and FBI clearances due to working for the School District. My schedule has me home by 3:00 p.m. every day, and I would love to fill some time helping out some families in the area with any pet, house, or babysitting needs! I am also available to tutor, in addition to these services. In my "spare" time, I love to work out, spend time with my fur babies, and read, read, read! If you feel like I would be a good fit for your needs, I would love to schedule a time to meet up and see if we can work something out. I look forward to hearing from you!

“Kathryn was great! Very communicative and flexible. Our daughter had a blast and will definitely rehire! A+”
