Alliah D., Babysitter in Highlands, NJ 07732 with 4 years of paid experience

I love being a sitter because working with kids brings me so much joy. I’ve spent the last four years as a paraprofessional in schools, supporting children from pre-K through middle school. Along the way, I’ve developed patience, creativity, and strong communication skills while working closely with kids, parents, and teachers. I’m also EMT- and CPR-certified, so safety is always a top priority. Currently, I’m in nursing school, pursuing my dream of becoming a pediatric nurse. Babysitting allows me to continue doing what I love caring for children and helping them feel safe, supported, and happy.

Kate M., Babysitter in Highlands, NJ 07732 with 2 years of paid experience

Hi! I am looking to get back into babysitting to help support myself through Physician Assistant School at Hofstra University. While studying Molecular Biology at Colgate University for undergrad, I also led a club offering after school care/activities for 4th and 5th graders at the local school. After graduating in 2022, I began working as a medical assistant at pediatric office, where I gained experience treating children for the last year. My favorite part of my job was interacting with kids of all ages, so I am really excited about getting back into baby sitting! Making the kids comfortable in the office and helping them feel better has been so rewarding, so I am looking forward to giving the same care to your children. In my free time I love being with my family and friends, going to the beach, and exercising. Please reach out if you’d like to know more about me, I would love to chat!

Makayla S., Babysitter in Highlands, NJ 07732 with 2 years of paid experience

Hi! I'm Makayla - a childcare worker based in Brooklyn near the D train. I LOVE being a sitter because kids bring so much joy, and I love being someone that they feel safe and comfortable with while still having fun. I'm strongest with babies and toddlers, and I'm comfortable with means/snacks, diapering/potty support, naps, and keeping routines smooth and calm. I'm also open to elementary kids (K-2, sometimes 3rd grade) for after-school pickup, light homework help, and creative activities. I'm CPR & First Aid certified, and I've completed child abuse recognition and reporting training. I'm patient, upbeat, and I always keep parents updated. I commute by train/bus and prefer opportunities nearby, but I'm very open to reasonable commutes for the right fit with a family. I'd love to learn your child's routine and help make your day easier!
