Hey there! 🌟 I’m Nazia, and caring for children has been a passion of mine since I was 9 years old. Over the past decade, I’ve had the joy of looking after kids of all ages—from newborns to teenagers (0–13 years old)—including children with ASD, ADHD, and other special needs. Now at 21, I’ve expanded my experience even further by working professionally as a Behavior Technician (BT), supporting children with developmental challenges through applied behavior analysis. I’m also certified in Basic Life Support (BLS), First Aid, and CPR, so your child’s safety is always a top priority in my care. Whether I’m helping with homework, playing games, or simply being a calm and caring presence, I’m committed to creating a nurturing, safe, and fun environment where kids can thrive. I look forward to the opportunity to bring my heart, skills, and experience to your family! Hello, my availability on the app seems to be wrong! Monday-Wed 6pm overnight care ending at 7am Fri-Sat Im available 10am morningings until 5pm please feel free to reach out if my schedule aligns with yours!

Nazia was great with my daughter. My daughter had so much fun and we will definitely reach out again for future needs! Nazia was also very courteous in proactively reaching out and understanding household rules, etc. Thank you so much for babysitting my daughter Nazia :)

I love working with children because of their curiosity, energy, and the joy they bring to each day. My experience spans several years in various childcare settings, where I have developed a deep understanding of child development and a knack for creating engaging, nurturing environments that promote learning and growth. What sets me apart from others is my genuine passion for helping children reach their full potential, my patience, and my ability to connect with each child on a personal level. I am dedicated to fostering a safe, positive atmosphere where children feel valued and encouraged to explore their creativity and individuality.

I enjoy puzzles, board games, crafts and music. I also love to take walks! It's important to keep kid active! I currently work at Hoboken Catholic Academy as an aide, substitute and stem teacher. Working with kids ages 3-13. I also have over 15 years working with children , as I started working at a nursery at 17 years old. I also have my associates degree in education and am planning to continue school. Being a mom myself (7&16) , i also have the personal experience and know the importance of child safety , and happiness. I am bilingual as I speak both fluent English and Spanish. Would love to teach your little one some Spanish if wanted! I was sitting for a family but they moved away and I have been looking for a new place that I can help keep bellies full and laughter roaring while learning along the way!

I wish I would have found her sooner! It was a pleasure having her as part as the family. Kids loved her. She even kept the house clean , made the girls dinner and took them on walking adventures. We moved to a different state or else we would still have her. Do not hesitate to add on this great addition to your family.

Energetic, dependable, and nurturing caregiver with extensive experience caring for children from newborns to tweens, both professionally and personally. I also previously worked as a Director in Childcare Education, giving me strong experience in child development, structured learning, safety, and creating supportive environments for children of all ages. As a proud mother of four successful young adults beginning their professional careers, I understand the importance of patience, guidance, structure, and emotional support throughout every stage of a child’s development. I dedicated over 13 years to my previous family/employer, building long-term relationships based on trust, consistency, compassion, and reliability. I am highly organized, patient, and passionate about helping children thrive in a safe, engaging, and positive environment. English is my primary language, I am a U.S. Citizen, and I have a clean driving record with a reliable vehicle. I also offer flexible availability, including days, evenings, weekends, and occasional babysitting support.

Natalie Denize-Scott cared for my three children from October 2013 to May 2026, including my twins since birth. She is dependable, nurturing, patient, and truly caring. Natalie helped with daily childcare, transportation, meal prep, bottle sterilizing, formula prep, and light housekeeping. My children loved her, and I always felt confident leaving them in her care. I highly recommend her to any family seeking a trustworthy and compassionate nanny or caregiver.

I’m an experienced childcare professional who has babysat for many families over the years, caring for children from newborns and infants through school age. Because I’ve worked with so many different families and age groups, I’m comfortable stepping into a new household, learning a family’s routines and expectations, and building rapport with children quickly. I previously worked for a babysitting agency providing childcare for families both in their homes and at hotels. This gave me experience working with families I was often meeting for the first time and helped me become very adaptable and confident helping children feel comfortable with a new caregiver. I understand that parents may be leaving their child with someone new, so I make communication, safety, and helping both the child and parents feel at ease a priority. Many of my babysitting relationships have also developed naturally through my professional childcare positions. While working as an after-school educator and coach, several families whose children I worked with began hiring me privately for babysitting. The same happened while I worked at an infant center caring for babies ages 6 weeks to 15 months. I really value that families who saw how I interacted with and cared for their children trusted me to continue caring for them outside of those settings. My broader childcare experience includes working as a full-time nanny, infant teacher, baby nurse at a postpartum resort, ABA therapist, special needs camp counselor, and after-school educator and coach. This has given me experience with everything from feeding, bottles, diapering, soothing, naps, and bedtime routines to play, homework help, outings, and caring for multiple children. I am also EMT certified and previously served for six years as a medic in the U.S. Army. My medical background has provided extensive training in first aid, emergency response, and safety. I’m warm, patient, dependable, and very hands-on with children. One of my strengths is being able to build rapport quickly, which is especially important when babysitting children who may not know me yet. I want children to feel safe and comfortable with me while also having fun, whether we’re playing, reading, doing an activity, or simply following their normal evening routine.

🌿 About Me I am originally from the beautiful island of St. Lucia and love returning whenever I can. Being outdoors is one of my greatest joys—I enjoy gardening, planting, and making the most of fresh air. 👩👧 Family & Background I’m a proud parent of two children who graduated from Rutgers University (New Brunswick). My passion for creativity inspired me to pursue studies in Child Development at Penn Foster, though I had to defer my certification for personal reasons. 🎨 Childcare Approach As a childcare provider, I enjoy sharing my love of nature, creativity, and art with children. I believe in creating a fun, enriching environment where kids can learn, explore, and grow. 🍼 Experience Since 2021, I have worked as a nanny for three families, caring for children ranging in age from 5 months to 5 years old. Most recently, in 2025, I cared for a 5‑month‑old, providing attentive supervision, preparing light snacks, and assisting with light housekeeping. These experiences have strengthened my ability to adapt to different family needs while ensuring children feel safe, loved, and engaged. I look forward to meeting your family and providing reliable, caring support for your little ones!

Hi, I'm Seun! Fair warning — if you hire me, there's a good chance your kitchen may become a culinary lab. We once recreated edible dirt using crushed Oreos and gummy worms, and it was a hit. I've been working with children since high school and have loved every moment of it. I believe kids see the world with a curiosity and wonder that is truly special, and I feel privileged to play a role in their growth into their own autonomous selves. This work has taught me the rewards of being present, the value of play, and the power of creativity — lessons I carry with me every day. I believe the best moments with children happen when you lean into their interest, and I've built my entire approach around that idea. I've been working with children since high school — starting with families of teachers and growing through word-of-mouth ever since. I'm experienced with toddlers through preteens, comfortable with multiples, and tend to build long-term relationships with the families I work with. Day-to-day I can help with morning and nighttime routines, meal prep, homework, driving to activities, and keeping kids engaged with screen-free games, outdoor play, and playdates. I'm currently in medical school on a scholar's Year for research, which means I bring a clinical understanding of child safety, health, and development to every family I work with — and I have genuine flexibility in my schedule for the foreseeable year. I also volunteer as a tutor supporting students from elementary school through the college application process. I'm available to start immediately and would love to meet your family. Feel free to reach out!
