Ella N., Babysitter in Lafayette, NJ 07848 with 5 years of paid experience

Hi, I'm Ella. I have had the pleasure of babysitting for 17wonderful families over the past four years. I love staying in contact with all my families and creating such wonderful bonds with them. It’s really special to me. Currently, I am a Sophomore in college, pursuing a degree to become a Child Development Specialist. I have a deep passion for nurturing and supporting children. I am very comfortable with pets and absolutely adore them. I have experience caring for babies as young as six months old, as well as extensive experience with one-year-olds and children of various other ages. I am currently a part-time nanny for a family and have weekend and occasional babysitting availability.

We were traveling from out of town for a wedding and in need of child care for 3 toddlers. Ella was unbelievable. Nature, mature, responsible, patient- she put me at immediate ease and my kids loved her. Only wish we lived closer so she could be a regular Sitter for us. She’s a special one.

Deborah was great with our 3 children. They all loved her and requested we send her messages about what we were doing when she wasn't with us. She brought adventure and activities to our house and was super engaged with our girls. We were sad when our schedules no longer aligned but still keep her in mind when we have one off needs. Highly recommend.

Hello there! I truly love working with kids, I have a lot of experience working with multiple children at once & separately in many different home environments/daycares. My background caring for infants, toddlers, and youth started when my mother use to babysit kids daily at home which I’ve got to experience & help her when I was younger. Since then I’ve worked in daycares & family friendly homes! I’m also an Aunt to the best kid ever!! Becoming an Aunt has truly been the highlight of my life. I’m a very caring, fun, helpful & compassionate individual that you can trust & be a loving sitter to your babies! I love arts & crafts, reading books, movies, outside activities & more! I also want to add that pets are no problem as well! I’m constantly around animals & I also pet sit! Please feel free to ask me any questions.

Laura is easy to work with and very friendly. My two boys took to her really quickly and count the days down until they see her again. She provides a fun and safe space and always in a good mood. She is reliable and easy to reach at all times. She drives and bilingual which is a plus.

Heather C., Babysitter in Lafayette, NJ 07848 with 20 years of paid experience

Hi families! I have lots of personal and nanny experience with newborns, infants, and toddlers and I love workinj with children. I love pets. I am super patient and easy going and attentive to all the little things that keep different babies comfortable (gassiness, wet diapers, needing to burp, needing to be held often, needing to bottle certain angles, etc). I am very experienced with the toddler stage and happy to play, read, take walks, and carefully supervise little ones during the learning to walk stage. I am mom to 2 kids (14 and 17). I work full time with adults with developmental disabilities but my hours are entirely squeezed into 3 long evening shifts on Wednesdays/Fridays/Saturday evenings. Thus I am free to nanny part-time on weekdays after I drop my daughter off to school at 7:15am. I live in Jefferson Township with my husband, our two teens, and our Yorkie. Every child is different and I am here to support whatever works best for your little one. Thanks!

Kayla B., Babysitter in Lafayette, NJ 07848 with 5 years of paid experience

Hello! I have been an on and off nanny for just under six years now. I have also worked for The Goddard School as well. During my employment at The Goddard School, I worked throughout every aged room. My main rooms during my stay were the infant and two/three year old rooms. I have worked with many families and all ages under 12! I am cpr and first aid certified! I love being able to work in childcare and view the progress and advancements in milestones within each individual I work with. I also have been blessed enough to have the opportunity to have my own bundle of joy and become a mom this year! He is the brightest soul and he has allowed me to gain so much more insight and experience towards my career. I hope to hear from you soon! :)

Molly  N., Babysitter in Lafayette, NJ 07848 with 3 years of paid experience

I am a caring, responsible, and experienced childcare provider with 3–4 years of hands-on experience working in a daycare setting with children ranging from infants to school-age. In addition to my daycare background, I have provided one-on-one babysitting for a 1-year-old, giving me strong experience with routines, feeding, and early developmental support. I currently work in a school as a special class aide, where I support children with diverse learning and developmental needs. This role has strengthened my patience, communication skills, and ability to create a safe, nurturing, and structured environment for every child. I am also in graduate school pursuing my Master’s degree in Speech and Language Therapy, which gives me a deeper understanding of child development, communication, and early learning. I love engaging children in fun, educational activities while ensuring they feel safe, supported, and happy.

Samantha P., Babysitter in Lafayette, NJ 07848 with 3 years of paid experience

Hi there! My name is Sam Perez, and it’s so nice to meet you! I recently graduated from Colgate University this past May and am currently taking a year or two before starting nursing school! I’m the middle child between an older sister and younger brother, and I have over five years of babysitting experience! I am also BLS certified and a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), with previous experience working in a hospital. Additionally, I have spent three years working with individuals with developmental disabilities, which has taught me the importance of patience, compassion, and meeting people where they are. My long-term goal is to become a Certified Nurse-Midwife, so supporting children and families is something I am truly passionate about! I love singing, dancing, coloring, crafting, spending time outdoors, and finding fun ways to learn new things together. I also love to cook, and would be happy to help out with light meal prep ☺️ I consider myself energetic, dependable, and caring, and my healthcare experience has helped me become confident in handling stressful or unexpected situations. Most importantly, I want the children I care for to feel safe, supported, and comfortable being themselves, all while having lots of fun! I would love the opportunity to get to know your family!
