Kayla $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Kayla! I’m from Central New Jersey. I’ve been working in childcare for almost 4 years and have been babysitting for about 2.5 years. I have a BA in Psychology and am currently pursuing my Master’s in Early Childhood Education. I’m a Pre-K teacher and have also led several after-school enrichment programs for children from preschool through eighth grade, so I have experience with a wide range of ages and developmental stages. I’m also CPR certified, so safety is always a top priority for me. I’d describe myself as reliable, punctual, and warm. I treat every child I encounter like an extension of my own family with patience, care, and respect. I genuinely enjoy helping children learn, grow, and thrive in a fun and supportive environment. I look forward to the potential of working with your family!

Jennifer $20 per hour for 1 child

Hey there! I’m Jennifer — part-time nursing student, full-time fun-bringer, and your go-to babysitter with 5+ years of experience wrangling giggles, snacks, and sibling squabbles like a pro. I’ve worked with kids of all ages, but I especially love hanging out with those 6 and up! Babysitting isn’t just a job to me—it’s something I genuinely love. Helping kids learn, grow, and have fun is what got me started and what keeps me going. I’m calm, patient, creative, and known for being the “cool babysitter” (okay, maybe I said that—but still!). I’m happy looking after up to three kiddos at once, and I love activities that keep us all moving and thinking—like outdoor games, puzzles, board games, and crafts. I always stick to the rules you set, and I’ll keep you in the loop with updates however you prefer. Bottom line: I want to be someone you can trust and your kids are excited to see walk through the door. Let’s make babysitting awesome together!

Breana $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Breana and I am currently working part-time as a nanny. I am looking for fulltime work at this time. I have plenty of years of experience in childcare as I have been babysitting since 15 years old! I’ve worked at a daycare facility for 18 months and had been a part-time nanny a little short of one year! Childcare is a passion for me! I have experience with infants, toddlers, young children, school-age children, pre-teens, and teens! I have experience as a household assistant as well, and can certainly run errands, food shop, meal prep/cook, and some light housekeeping or laundry! I also have experience as a dog walker and can help care for your dog as well. I am open to caring for cats or other pets as long as clear instructions or guidelines are set!
