During the day, I work in the school as a para then the child care program.

Lisa is an amazing babysitter. She took care of my 17-month-old daughter in Princeton, NJ, at our hotel for nine hours while I attended business meetings nearby. From the very beginning, she communicated clearly, was proactive, and arrived right on time. I loved how she built a genuine connection with my child within the first few minutes of meeting her. Her approach is thoughtful and confident, and her frequent updates throughout the day gave me complete peace of mind. I felt entirely at ease knowing my daughter was in reliable, caring hands. Lisa is incredibly kind, professional, and helpful. Thank you again, Lisa — when we’re back in Princeton for work, I’ll definitely reach out!

We had a great experience with Jayti, who cared for our two children for a full week. She was reliable, punctual, and handled daily responsibilities smoothly, including picking them up from school, preparing meals, and getting them ready for bed each evening. She was calm, attentive, and engaging with the kids, which helped them feel comfortable and well cared for right away. Communication was clear and consistent, and we always felt confident that our children were in good hands. We would absolutely recommend her to other families and we are looking forward to working with her again.

I always loved working with children from a young age. Before I was old enough to babysit I was a mothers helper to learn all that involved with caring for a child. I have babysat dozens of families and still continue to. I started small in my community and from glowing references I expanded outside my community. Not only do I love to babysit and nanny, I also love to teach children. I gained a lot of babysitting opportunities through my tutoring. I am CPR certified and First Aid. I used to be a life guard so I am qualified to watch children in the water.

The boys absolutely love her and are always very excited when she comes to babysit. She is organized, very sweet, always cleans up after them and outs everything away, is very good with the schedule we provide, punctual, respectful and overall one of the best babysitters we have ever had. We cannot wait for her return from school next summer.
