Margaret L., Babysitter in Wanaque, NJ 07465 with 14 years of paid experience

I have been in New Jersey for four years now, and moved near the Ridgewood area 2 years ago. I'm employed full-time as a Brand Manager as my 9-5, but love to add in babysitting outside of working hours. I am very passionate about child development, and love having fun with all ages of kiddos! I can provide additional references and work history!

Josephine M., Babysitter in Wanaque, NJ 07465 with 17 years of paid experience

Hi Families! My name is Jo, and I have over 15 years of experience in childcare for all ages. My past experiences have been with wonderful families who have welcomed me as an addition to their family. I took excellent care of the children and completed all the duties the position required on time. I consider myself a very reliable, trustworthy, honest, patient, and punctual person who puts a hundred percent into whatever the job requirements are. My strong references from my previous employers will prove that I would be a great fit for your family. I have a very energetic personality and multitasking is not an issue for me. I enjoy keeping your child happy at all times as that is an important factor to me as well as safety and wellbeing which I prioritize. Being an addition to your family is not just a job for me, it is my passion in childcare.

Londyn G., Babysitter in Wanaque, NJ 07465 with 20 years of paid experience

Hello Families, My name is Londyn and I am full time nanny (during the weekdays) and a student studying Pediatric Nuclear Medicine. I have been in childcare for 20+ years and am well versed in behavioral, mental, and physical milestones. I have experience with all ages, including newborns, and am first aid and CPR certified. I am a caring and nurturing person, and children have always felt comfortable near me. I have worked with children with behavioral issues, slower developmental development, as well as children with Autism and Downs Syndrome. For the family I currently work with, I do meal prep for the parents for the week, laundry, run errands, and all tasks involving the children (cooking their dinners, preparing their lunches, homework help, driving them around, etc.). I truly love being a nanny/sitter and working with children of all ages.

Why I Love Being a Sitter I’ve always loved caring for children—it comes naturally to me. As a mom of two and a former teacher, I know how important it is to create a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where kids feel seen and supported. I genuinely enjoy helping children grow, learn, and explore their unique personalities. Whether we’re reading stories, doing crafts, or just sharing a laugh, I find so much joy in building those special bonds. ⸻ My Experience My childcare journey started early—babysitting as a teen, then working summers as a camp counselor and certified lifeguard. I went on to earn a Master’s in Elementary Education and spent years teaching kindergarten, 2nd grade, and 6th grade. I also led the tennis program at Deer Mountain Day Camp, working with kids of all ages and skill levels. I’ve supported children in all stages of development and feel confident handling routines, schoolwork, playtime, and everything in between. ⸻ My Skills & Training    •   Master’s Degree in Elementary Education    •   Certified Lifeguard (past)    •   CPR & First Aid knowledge    •   Strong classroom management and communication skills    •   Experience with children from infants to pre-teens     I’m patient, attentive, and calm under pressure—qualities that help children feel secure and help parents feel at ease. I’m currently looking for a part-time position that could grow into something more consistent or full-time down the line. I bring warmth, structure, and years of hands-on experience, and I’d love to find a family I can build a lasting relationship with.

Mindy R., Babysitter in Wanaque, NJ 07465 with 4 years of paid experience

I am the eldest sister and female cousin. I would babysit for my family while our parents were working or doing recreational purposes. I am a high school graduate and currently a junior in college. I’m really good with pets and have a lot of patience. I have no problem doing some light cleaning and playing with kids as well as helping them with their homework. I am a very attentive person so no kids will ever be left unattended. I’m also fluent in English and Spanish. I’ve also worked in day cares so I have a lot of experience with new borns, toddlers and kids.

Janetha P., Babysitter in Wanaque, NJ 07465 with 4 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Janetha Polo, and I’m a 21-year-old college student majoring in Food and Nutrition Science. I have an Associate’s Degree in Early Childhood Development and have worked in a preschool classroom setting since my freshman year of high school. This experience has given me a deep understanding of child development, safety, and age-appropriate learning and play. I have a valid driver’s license, can cook healthy and kid-friendly meals, and have completed a SafeServ certification to ensure safe food handling. While my CPR certification has expired, I have previously been trained and am planning to renew it soon. I’m dependable, caring, and love creating a fun, safe environment for kids to grow and thrive.

I’ll take the night shift while you get some sleep! Hi! I'm a TV News Producer and mom to two princess-loving toddlers. I stepped away from the TV industry last year to focus on raising my girls (and finally ditch that Manhattan commute)! I am a Newborn and Infant Care Specialist providing overnight newborn, infant, and baby care for families like yours. I have 22 years of childcare experience, so I'm excited to use my expertise to make your evenings as restful and relaxing as possible. I’m a mom, so I know how important it is to find the right person you can trust and rely on to care for your children. I take that responsibility seriously and will always make thoughtful, smart, and quick decisions to ensure your little ones are safe, happy, and thriving. I am also an extension of you — my caregiving style mirrors the way you choose to raise your baby, and I am here for support and to provide a helping hand… the kind every mama needs from time to time. A little about me: I grew up in Fair Lawn and now live in Hawthorne with my husband and daughters, where we love being a part of the Hawthorne community. My nurturing nature and desire to help other families has carried with me through more than two decades of working with children, even while managing a full time professional career. Running a newsroom and managing Monster Mini Golf for years also helped my organizational and management skills shine — and I can plan a birthday party or major event in my sleep! I have certifications in newborn and infant care, a car with two infant car seats installed just in case, and all background checks are completed and clean. Background checks are renewed every 90 days, so I’m happy to provide you a copy instantly, along with wonderful references and my professional résumé, upon request. I’ve also made my Instagram (@carasayssmile) public, so please feel free to get a glimpse into my life beyond this profile!
