Booked by 4 families in Ledgewood, NJ

Hello! My name is Paula, and I bring over 10 years of experience working with children of all ages, along with an educational background in Child Development. I’m passionate about creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children feel comfortable, supported, and encouraged to grow. I also had the wonderful opportunity to spend two years as an au pair caring for infant twin boys. That experience deepened my love for early childhood care and taught me the importance of patience, consistency, routine, and creativity during a child’s early development. I’m energetic, reliable, caring, and always happy to jump into activities that encourage both learning and fun. In my free time, I enjoy painting, practicing yoga, and reading, all things I love incorporating into my time with children. Whether we’re getting creative with arts and crafts, staying active, or winding down with a good storybook, I strive to make each day engaging and meaningful. My most recent experience as a caregiver was with a lovely family with 5-year-old twin girls. This experience was incredibly special to me, and those two girls definitely won my heart! We created so many wonderful memories together, from playing and doing arts and crafts to working on homework and learning together. Being part of their daily lives and watching their personalities and creativity grow was truly a beautiful and rewarding experience. And I have to add. I absolutely love animals! I currently have a cat named Onyx, so I’m very comfortable working with families who have pets as well. 🐾 I’m excited to bring my experience, enthusiasm, and positive energy to a new family, and I look forward to supporting your children’s growth, happiness, and well-being.

“Paula was our nanny for a year and she was trustworthy, reliable and very loving towards our kids. She has varied skillsets and helped my kids develop their interests in arts and crafts. I would recommend Paula to anyone who is seeking a warm, kind, responsible and resourceful caregiver and I am grateful we were able to find her.”

Erika $19 per hour for 1 child

Fostering a child's growth and development is my true passion, and I am dedicated to making a positive, lasting impact on the families I support. With three years of experience, I provide reliable, high-quality care for children ranging from infants to pre-teens. My approach is calm and patient, ensuring your child feels secure while I comfortably enforce your household rules. I love keeping children active through outdoor sports, but I am equally happy engaging them with educational games, puzzles, and board games. I am comfortable with pets and always follow your preferred communication method to keep you updated on your child's day. I hold CPR training and First Aid certifications to ensure a safe environment at all times. I look forward to the opportunity to become a trusted, steady presence in your family's life.

Love kids & dogs. I have 4 boys with lots of experience. I love being a babysitter and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids (including twins!) since I was 15 years old. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts, tutoring, and even dance lessons. I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean, and run errands. I have been a caretaker for my own grandparents and am comfortable with senior care. I can cook, drive to appointments, or do other tasks. (I am also a great bridge partner!)

Hi families, I’m Nosi pronounced Nosee. I am an extremely happy and loving individual who is passionate about helping others. With over 7 years of experience, I have worked as both an Au Pair and a full- time nanny, providing exceptional care to children ranging from 4 weeks to 14 years old. As a vaccinated nanny, I am committed to ensuring a safe and nurturing environment for the children in my care. I truly enjoy working with children, supporting their growth.I love engaging in activities such as outdoor adventures, arts and crafts, baking, and reading, always striving to make each day memorable and enjoyable for the kids I care for. Having had the privilege of becoming a part of many families' lives, childcare is truly one of my greatest passions. Outside of work I enjoy reading, yoga, exploring new dining spots, sightseeing, and visiting places with waterfalls and beaches.

“Nosipho was on time, warm, and immediately connected with my kid by getting down to his level. Very easy-going and my son was very comfortable with her. Would definitely recommend!”
