Hello, my name is Jocelyn, and I am seeking my next long-term sitter position with a wonderful family. I am a kind, compassionate, and dependable caregiver with 9 years of childcare experience, working with children from newborns through age 15, including children with special needs. I take great pride in being a positive, nurturing presence and a supportive mentor in a child’s life. I am CPR certified and prioritize safety at all times while creating an engaging, structured, and fun environment. My caregiving approach focuses on educational play, age-appropriate activities, and meaningful interaction to support each child’s development, confidence, and well-being. I am comfortable with pets and value building strong, respectful relationships with the families I work with. I believe the best childcare partnerships are built on trust, communication, and mutual compatibility. Thank you for taking the time to review my profile. I look forward to connecting and finding the right family to grow with long-term.

Johanna M., Babysitter in Cookstown, NJ 08511 with 9 years of paid experience

From my first babysitting job when I was a teenager- I have always loved working with kids, watching them grown up and being a part of helping with that growth. I have worked both in the home and in the classroom and use my skills to provide a balance of both play and work for your child. Also by using my artistic & design background I like to create new projects and experience with my kids to help them learn different skills through play and fun! I have mostly worked with children from infancy through kindergarten. However, I do have experience up to the average age of 12. I have a range from being a date-night babysitting to being a classroom aide to living with a family and helping take care of their children. I also have used creative learning through play a lot and have worked extensively with kids with special needs. I hope to find families that could be a great fit and benefit from my experience and bring some fun memories into their lives! ** PLEASE Look at my availability calendar to see the dates and times I am open- however, this can always change so feel free to message me and we can work something out** Thank you!

I had multiple children experiences. in my 20 years with Sitter city I am proud to say my shortest stay with a family was 3 years. I only leave either bcuz the family relocated or the children grew up to the point the grandmother can already stay and watch them like they were already 16 years old. My youngest child I took care was a newly born -3 months old. I can provide several references to vouch for my reliability, my punctuality and good character. YOu can even let sitter city run my criminal background for your peace of mind . If interested- you may contact me at 732-646-1678. if you already got someone- you can keep my number for date nights, special occasions like wedding were your sitter suddenly called off sick. I am very flexible as I'm retired. Sincerely Annie

Danielle O., Babysitter in Cookstown, NJ 08511 with 6 years of paid experience

Hello! My name is Danielle & I am currently a student at Kean. I am studying to earn my bachelor’s degree in history/education while obtaining my certification to help students with special needs. I have been baby sitting my nieces 3-4 times a month since my youngest niece was one (who is now 7). I have experience with behavioral issues and children with ADHD. I am currently employed with ESS and can show proof of a clean background check if necessary. I also don’t mind light house keeping, running errands, bringing children to after school activities, helping with homework, or pet sitting. I enjoy spending time with children and animals and I love being outdoors. I’m organized, responsible, always on time, and reliable. I look forward to meeting with you & thank you in advance for choosing me to help you with your children!

Angelica M., Babysitter in Cookstown, NJ 08511 with 15 years of paid experience

I am 33 years old with 17 years experience working with children. I have cared for children as young as 3 weeks to 8 years old. I have an associates and a bachelors degree in Early Childhood Education, and I am currently pursuing a Masters degree in Elementary education. I absolutely love children and consider myself fair, fun and protective. I treat children as I would want my future children to be treated. I enjoy going out to the park, on walks, to the library, or having fun indoors on those rainy days. My master's degree is online, so it should not cause an issue as I am watching your child. I am CPR certified and fingerprinted with the DOE. I can't wait to meet you.

Hi, my name is Michele and I’m from New Jersey ! I'm a kind, compassionate, and caring person. As the youngest of my siblings, caregiving has always been a part of my day-to-day due to the fact my siblings had multiple kids so i became an aunt at an early age .So, naturally, I turned to childcare as a profession at the age of 17 and l've never looked back. My background caring for infants, toddlers, and youth. I've been working in childcare for the last 5 years, and am CPR and First Aid certified. I'm looking forward to finding the next family that I'll be working with long-term. It's important that we both feel we're the right match for one another, so I appreciate you taking the time to read through my bio. I hope we connect soon!
