Booked by 2 families in Clifton, NJ

Hi! My name is Shimaine, but you can call me Shi (pronounced like “shy”). I’m a loving, fun, and patient caregiver with over 10 years of experience working with people of all ages. My journey started in middle school and high school, babysitting for families in my community. During undergrad, I worked for an on-call nanny agency, gaining even more hands-on experience with children of all ages. I later worked as a CNA and direct care provider, assisting individuals with daily living tasks, light housekeeping, and meal prep. When it comes to kids, I’m all about keeping them entertained and engaged. Whether it’s playing games, doing crafts, or coming up with creative ways to make daily routines more fun. I understand that every child is different, and I know how to connect with them on their level. Currently, I’m a Registered Behavior Technician and working toward my Behavior Analyst certification, so I have plenty of experience with structure, positive reinforcement, and making learning fun. As a dog owner, I’m comfortable with pets and happy to help in pet-friendly homes. I have a reliable vehicle, CPR certification, and a strong commitment to making life easier for families. Looking forward to helping out however I can!

“I've worked with and highly recommend Shi as a babysitter! As an RBT, they have exceptional experience working with children, including those with diverse needs. Their patience, creativity, and ability to keep kids engaged make them a fantastic caregiver. Parents can trust that their children are in safe, capable, and caring hands!”

I also have hands-on experience with dogs, including walking, feeding, and basic care, so I’m very comfortable around pets.

Booked by 2 families in Clifton, NJ

Hello! My name is Yuliana, and I am a university student. I have been working as a substitute teacher and teacher’s assistant at different childcare centers since 2024, where I have gained experience caring for infants and toddlers. I also have previous babysitting experience, and I completed a high school internship at an elementary school as a Spanish teacher’s assistant. I am caring, patient, and responsible. I enjoy playing with children and doing educational activities that help them learn and develop their skills while having fun. I also offer pet care. Although I don’t have professional experience as a pet sitter, I love animals and am comfortable following instructions for feeding, walking, and general care.

“Yuliana was great. She worked with our son to find ways to keep him busy for the time she was there without TV. ”
