Find nannies in Rutherford, NJ

Hello, I am Melody. I am a Hispanic American who loves children and has been exposed to them for a truly long time. I am reaching to about 8 years of experience in childcare in the field, including church kid classes, daycare work, and personal full-time nannying work. In more detail, I have provided engaging care for children from the ages of 18 months to 12 in church, daycare, and private home settings. Furthermore, I planned and led activities including games, arts and crafts, music (through my singing and playing guitar), and interactive learning. To add on, I managed classrooms, encouraged creativity, and fostered a fun, nurturing environment. Specific experience includes work at Mount Calvary Pentecostal Church (2017), assisting a daycare called Sunlight Kids (2019), and full-time nannying in Columbus Circle, NY (2025). Here's a review from my most recent job: "To whom it may concern, Melody Acosta was a temporary caretaker for our 18-month-old daughter for nearly 3 weeks. As two extremely time-strapped executives, my husband and I work in busy environments with high stress and rely on professional, high-performing teams. Melody was an excellent addition to our team during her time with us. Melody was extremely professional and diligent right from the start. She made time to come before the official role began to study the daily routine of our daughter. That way, she would have a head start before the role began. During her time here, she was extremely dependable with a calm and helpful demeanor. Often she would arrive early or have to stay a bit later, and did so with a pleasant, mature demeanor. Her ability to take direction, feedback, and adapt quickly also stood out. She presented a desire to meet our needs and diligently took notes to ensure completion of tasks and pivoted when needed. She was proactive, often suggesting ideas for meals or activities. With our daughter herself, Melody was very interactive, singing, reading, and spending time with her caringly and lovingly. Melody would be an asset in any workplace. Thanks. Divya Sawhney"

I am a prospective medical student with a masters in biomedical sciences and about 5 years of healthcare experience working with patients of all ages and demographics. I’ve done rotations at hospitals that focused on working with children with developmental disabilities and as a result have developed the skill set to handle children with care, encourage growth and provide a safe, healthy and productive space for them. I have my own little rescue kitty named Olive that made her place in our family but I love all kinds of animals and look forward to adopting a dog soon! Outside of my work, I am a very outdoorsy person, often swimming, biking, running and hiking on the weekends- my coolest hike has been to Machu Picchu, Peru. I’m able to work with children and pets of all energy levels and would love to indulge them in activities if required. In the home, I am more than willing to complete tasks related to caring for the children and pets.
