Mia $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Mia. I graduated from Rutgers University, and as the oldest of five siblings, caring for others has always been a big part of who I am. I’ve helped care for my younger siblings since I was young, and I’ve spent years caring for children of all ages, from newborns to school-aged kids. My siblings even call me their second mom, which is one of the greatest compliments I could receive. I’m comfortable with feeding, nap and bedtime routines, homework help, activities, transportation, and creating a safe, positive environment where children can thrive. What I love most is building genuine connections with kids, celebrating their milestones, encouraging their growth, and being a dependable, caring presence in their lives. I also had the privilege of helping care for both of my grandparents, who lived to 90 years old. That experience taught me patience, compassion, and the importance of providing thoughtful support. I’m comfortable assisting with companionship, meal preparation, errands, and day-to-day senior care needs. In addition to childcare and senior care, I have experience as a household assistant and enjoy helping families keep their homes running smoothly. Whether it’s cooking, organizing, tidying up, grocery shopping, or running errands, I’m happy to help make daily life a little easier. I’m allergic to cats, but I’m very comfortable around dogs and would be happy to work with families who have them. I pride myself on being reliable, attentive, and easy to communicate with, and I look forward to supporting a family in whatever way they need most.

Daniela $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Daniela and I am a professional, high-energy nanny with 3 years of paid experience caring for children of all ages. While I enjoy working with all stages of childhood, I have a special heart for toddlers. I love their curiosity and find great joy in creating fun, educational activities that help them reach their milestones. As a native Spanish speaker, I take pride in introducing children to a second language through songs and play-most of my previous kiddos were counting in Spanish within weeks! My goal is to provide parents with total peace of mind, knowing their little ones are in a safe, patient, and nurturing environment. I am highly organized, pet-friendly, a non-smoker. I look forward to meeting your family!

Ashlee $28 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Ashlee and I love kids! I am a dance teacher and performer so I have been working with kids for over a decade in the classroom along with caring for others as a babysitter throughout the years. I have experience teaching ages from 2-18 so I really know how to communicate and connect with them. I love playing outside, reading to kids, spending quality time, and trying to teach them new skills as well. One day I want to have kids of my own so I accept every opportunity to care for a child with a ton of gratitude from the start because I know how precious those young years are, and it’s more practice for me in hopes of being a mom one day myself.

Julia $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Julia, an experienced educator with a degree in Early Childhood Education and a background working with children from preschool through high school. I currently work in special education and have experience supporting children with different learning and developmental needs. I’m patient, caring, and love creating a fun and comfortable environment where kids can be themselves. I’m also an animal lover with experience caring for dogs, cats, and other pets, so I’m happy to help with pet care while babysitting as well! Whether your family needs occasional date-night care, weekend help, or support during school breaks, I’d love to help.

Yelis $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Yelis. I’m currently in Dental Hygiene school and I’m looking for a part-time babysitting position. I have experience caring for a newborn from the time she was born until she was a little over a year old, due to the family relocating. I’ve also had experience working with toddlers. I genuinely enjoy spending time with children and love keeping them engaged with fun activities like arts and crafts, playing, and age-appropriate activities. I am also CPR certified. I’m reliable, responsible, patient, and caring. I’m happy to help with light household chores, errands, and anything else that makes life a little easier for the family!
