"Amina came and helped us out when our babysitter canceled last minute. She was great with our kids. Even our 11 month old son who has stranger anxiety warmed up to her."

Hi, I’m Kayla! I’m a graduate of Brown University and earned my master’s degree from the University of Southern California, where I played soccer at both schools. I have over 10 years of experience babysitting children of all ages and have also worked as a nanny and camp counselor. I’ve always really enjoyed working with kids and love being active, spending time outside, and coming up with things to keep them busy and having fun. I’m dependable, easygoing, and always respectful of each family’s routines and preferences. In my free time, I love finding new farmers markets and cooking new recipes!

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.
