I’m also a mother to an adorable 3 year old. I consider myself a kind, reliable, responsible, and attentive individual. I’m currently pursuing my Master's Degree in Early Childhood Education, as I have a passion for working with children. I’m bilingual, I speak both English and Spanish fluently. I'm also CPR, First Aid & AED certified. I’m available for occasional evening/date night opportunities. Thank you!

Lina is amazing! This was our first time having her babysit, and the kids absolutely loved her. She is very patient and kind, and the kids felt comfortable with her right away. They got along with her so well that we had no issues sneaking out for a date night! We had a great experience and will definitely be calling her again!

Amanda N., Babysitter in Clifton, NJ 07013 with 10 years of paid experience

Hello Parents! Thank you for visiting my profile. Note: I am currently available to provide childcare on Halloween, Indigenous Peoples Day, Veterans Day, and Christmas break My name is Amanda! I am a currently a freelance pet sitter, and babysitter of 10 plus years. As a New York Native I know how to navigate through the MTA system and the neighborhoods of each borough. I am CPR/First Aid Certified and a non-smoker. One of my passions is caring for children, and animals. I have over 10 years of babysitter/nanny experience with children of all ages. Caring for children is a passion I will continue for as long as I can. I love getting to know children, watching them grow, and supporting their important milestones. Along with my childcare experience, I have 10 years of experience working as a pet sitter. My dream is to open a pet care, and babysitting company. Why not both! I have been caring for children since the age of 12. I started babysitting my younger brother at a young age, as I grew older I transitioned into caring for my younger cousins, and working as a babysitter/nanny. In addition, I have experience caring for children with ADHD, Autism, ADD, & Anxiety. Since 2019, I have worked with Camp Shiloh as a Counselor in Training, Mentor, and Volunteer. I was also a Camper there for several years as a kid, and it’s one of my the few places I call home. A fun fact about me, I love Harry Potter, and comic books. Some of the fun things I love to do with children are making art, building blocks, engaging in activities around the city, read books, dancing, baking, playing board games, going to parks, playing sports, playing with toys & more. In my free time I like to swim, skateboard, listen to music, learn new things, write, and ground myself in nature. Children love me as their babysitter because I’m empathetic, open minded, committed, and pretty funny. Your child’s safety is my upmost importance, and of course having fun. References can be provided. Note: I am aware I have a two star review, if you would like to know more about why that review is on my page I am more than happy to explain the situation. Unfortunately, the parent never had the chance to meet nor interview me.

Amanda is an excellent pet sitter, possibly the best I have encountered. She was quick in her responses and put my mind at ease throughout the process with notifications of when she arrived and left my home. My cat seemed very happy in her care and they got along well. I would definitely use Amanda's services again and recommend her to friends. I also appreciated the pics and videos to see how Scout was doing in my absence!

Lina maria R., Babysitter in Clifton, NJ 07013 with 5 years of paid experience

Hello! My name is Lina and I am currently seeking a childcare position (30 hours/week, Monday–Thursday) starting September 2026. Before coming to the United States, I gained experience caring for babies and children in Colombia. Since then, for two years, I was an Au Pair with a family, taking care of their two girls (ages 2 and 6). I also spent a year caring for a 4-year-old girl, and most recently, I cared for a baby girl from the time she was 4 months old until she turned 1. I’m now looking for a new position because she is transitioning to daycare. As a full-time caregiver, I have handled everything related to the children in my care, including: following sleep schedules, nap and bedtimes, changing diapers and potty training, bottle and meal preparation, bathtime, and taking them to classes and scheduling playdates with other nannies. I have hands-on experience caring for infants and babies, and I truly love watching them grow, it’s one of the most rewarding parts of this work for me. I have additional experience working with various families as a babysitter, from infants to school-age kids. I am a patient, responsible, and trustworthy person who enjoys working with children, learning about them, and helping them grow. I pride myself on being committed to my work. I am reliable and dedicated to creating a nurturing, safe, and loving environment for the children I care for. I am also CPR certified and happy to provide references upon request. Please feel free to reach out with any questions. I look forward to the opportunity to work with a new family starting in September!

Lina took care of our biggest treasure in the world for half a year, and, had our schedule not changed, we would have counted ourselves lucky to continue having her spend time with our now toddler. Lina is sweet, helpful, thoughtful, punctula, and incredibly attuned to the baby's needs; whether they are getting a clean diaper, a milk bottle at just the right temperature, or making sure conditions are just right for a nap. We never worried about miscommunications because she always asked for clarifications if something seemed unclear. Like other families have said, our baby loves her so much!!! Seeing Lina arrive makes our baby squeal with joy. We love her so much! Any child and family who have her in her life are assured a ray of sunshine even in the darkest of days. We are happy to talk to you if you have any questions about our experience with her.

Angelica A., Babysitter in Clifton, NJ 07013 with 10 years of paid experience

I’m an experienced childcare professional who has babysat for many families over the years, caring for children from newborns and infants through school age. Because I’ve worked with so many different families and age groups, I’m comfortable stepping into a new household, learning a family’s routines and expectations, and building rapport with children quickly. I previously worked for a babysitting agency providing childcare for families both in their homes and at hotels. This gave me experience working with families I was often meeting for the first time and helped me become very adaptable and confident helping children feel comfortable with a new caregiver. I understand that parents may be leaving their child with someone new, so I make communication, safety, and helping both the child and parents feel at ease a priority. Many of my babysitting relationships have also developed naturally through my professional childcare positions. While working as an after-school educator and coach, several families whose children I worked with began hiring me privately for babysitting. The same happened while I worked at an infant center caring for babies ages 6 weeks to 15 months. I really value that families who saw how I interacted with and cared for their children trusted me to continue caring for them outside of those settings. My broader childcare experience includes working as a full-time nanny, infant teacher, baby nurse at a postpartum resort, ABA therapist, special needs camp counselor, and after-school educator and coach. This has given me experience with everything from feeding, bottles, diapering, soothing, naps, and bedtime routines to play, homework help, outings, and caring for multiple children. I am also EMT certified and previously served for six years as a medic in the U.S. Army. My medical background has provided extensive training in first aid, emergency response, and safety. I’m warm, patient, dependable, and very hands-on with children. One of my strengths is being able to build rapport quickly, which is especially important when babysitting children who may not know me yet. I want children to feel safe and comfortable with me while also having fun, whether we’re playing, reading, doing an activity, or simply following their normal evening routine.

Clarita S., Babysitter in Clifton, NJ 07013 with 5 years of paid experience

🌿 About Me I am originally from the beautiful island of St. Lucia and love returning whenever I can. Being outdoors is one of my greatest joys—I enjoy gardening, planting, and making the most of fresh air. 👩‍👧 Family & Background I’m a proud parent of two children who graduated from Rutgers University (New Brunswick). My passion for creativity inspired me to pursue studies in Child Development at Penn Foster, though I had to defer my certification for personal reasons. 🎨 Childcare Approach As a childcare provider, I enjoy sharing my love of nature, creativity, and art with children. I believe in creating a fun, enriching environment where kids can learn, explore, and grow. 🍼 Experience Since 2021, I have worked as a nanny for three families, caring for children ranging in age from 5 months to 5 years old. Most recently, in 2025, I cared for a 5‑month‑old, providing attentive supervision, preparing light snacks, and assisting with light housekeeping. These experiences have strengthened my ability to adapt to different family needs while ensuring children feel safe, loved, and engaged. I look forward to meeting your family and providing reliable, caring support for your little ones!

Seun A., Babysitter in Clifton, NJ 07013 with 7 years of paid experience

Hi, I'm Seun! Fair warning — if you hire me, there's a good chance your kitchen may become a culinary lab. We once recreated edible dirt using crushed Oreos and gummy worms, and it was a hit. I've been working with children since high school and have loved every moment of it. I believe kids see the world with a curiosity and wonder that is truly special, and I feel privileged to play a role in their growth into their own autonomous selves. This work has taught me the rewards of being present, the value of play, and the power of creativity — lessons I carry with me every day. I believe the best moments with children happen when you lean into their interest, and I've built my entire approach around that idea. I've been working with children since high school — starting with families of teachers and growing through word-of-mouth ever since. I'm experienced with toddlers through preteens, comfortable with multiples, and tend to build long-term relationships with the families I work with. Day-to-day I can help with morning and nighttime routines, meal prep, homework, driving to activities, and keeping kids engaged with screen-free games, outdoor play, and playdates. I'm currently in medical school on a scholar's Year for research, which means I bring a clinical understanding of child safety, health, and development to every family I work with — and I have genuine flexibility in my schedule for the foreseeable year. I also volunteer as a tutor supporting students from elementary school through the college application process. I'm available to start immediately and would love to meet your family. Feel free to reach out!
