Hi, My name is Aimee and I was born and raised in North Jersey. As a creative, I am a huge advocate for self expression and being yourself. And spending time with children reminds me the importance of that. I've been working with kids for over ten years and as the oldest of five, caring for children and being attentive to their needs is first nature to me. I have experience nannying & babysitting the kids of my neighbors, aunts, uncles etc. Also, I've worked as a Substitute nanny, date-night nanny and as a teacher's assistant in daycare centers/preschools. My favorite part of nannying is when I see a child grow more confident in themselves and their abilities. There's something about seeing a child do something that they thought they couldn't do, it warms my heart :) With your child, I plan to teach them, care for them, go on plenty of walks with them (parks are epic), visit the library, a museum, have a dance party or two and just support their development and individuality. That was a bit about me and I look forward to meeting you! All the best, Aimee A.

Hi, I’m Ting! As a recent Fine Arts graduate and art instructor, I excel at keeping people of all ages engaged, creative, and comfortable.

I am fully bilingual in English and Mandarin, and I love incorporating language learning or art activities into my care.

I’m patient, responsible, and enjoy helping kids learn through play and creativity. I also have hands-on experience with dogs, including walking, feeding, and basic care, so I’m very comfortable around pets.
