Julia $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a 24-year-old childcare professional and a recent graduate of Towson University. I have 8 years of babysitting experience caring for amazing kids anywhere from 3 months all the way up to 13 years old! On top of babysitting, I also work as a YMCA counselor and camp counselor, and I absolutely LOVE children!!! :) I am super big on keeping things safe, structured, and reliable for parents, while making sure the kids are always having fun, staying active, and staying engaged. Whether it's playing creative camp games, diving into arts and crafts, or maintaining a solid bedtime routine, I love bringing high energy and absolute peace of mind to every family I work with!

Lily $16 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Lily and I am currently majoring in early childhood education at MCCC. I am very family oriented and first discovered my love for caregiving while looking after my younger cousins. Over the years, this grew into a true passion. Since 2020, I have been babysitting toddlers and infants, and I especially enjoy doing crafts, science experiments, and other fun activities with them while also being a caring and reliable friend. In addition to childcare, I have experience caring for pets. My neighborhood likes to call my house the farm as I have ducks, geese, a dog, a cockatiel, and a snake. I am CPR and First Aid certified through the Red Cross, which allows me to provide an extra level of safety. Whether I’m helping with little ones or looking after pets, I treat every family as if they were my own.

Booked by 1 family in Lawrenceville, NJ

Hi Everyone! I am Abigail, 20 year old Au Pair from South Africa. I spent almost 2 years teaching at a daycare centre as well as tutoring and babysitting occasionally. I love spending time with kids and can do anything from cooking to helping with homework, etc. I am currently an Au Pair for a lovely family with three little boys from ages 2 years to 8 years old. I am also comfortable petsitting cats and dogs and house sitting.

“Abigail is currently our superstar Au Pair and has been living with us for the last few months. She predominantly cares for our 2 year old son, but also helps with our older two boys when they return from school (ages 5 and 8). She is wonderful with the boys and she has built an incredible relationship with all 3 of them. She's also very patient and her teaching experience really helps them with their learning and homework needs. She creates a warm, welcoming and enriching environment that ensures the kids have an optimal opportunity to thrive. She's highly reliable and always goes above and beyond our needs. She has a lot of free time in the evenings and over weekends, so I'll highly recommend her as a babysitter for any family.”
