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.

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.
