Hi there! My name is Melanie. With an Associate’s degree in Early Childhood Education and over 15 years of professional experience, I offer a level of care rooted in a deep understanding of child development. My background spans the full spectrum of ages, from newborns and infants to elementary-aged children. Currently, I am a stay-at-home mother to my own infant daughter, which has only deepened my patience and practical skills. Because I am home during the day, I am looking to provide occasional evening care for families in need of a reliable 'date night' sitter or someone for very part-time, late-day help. I bring a calm, professional, and nurturing presence. I am fluent in both English and Spanish. I look forward to helping your little ones feel safe and happy while you take some well-deserved time away. I am comfortable with some pets.

Hi! I’m a fun, caring, and dependable sitter who genuinely loves spending time with kids. I’m patient, easygoing, and always make sure kids feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I love playing games, doing crafts, and helping out however I can.

Hi everyone! My name is Amira. I am currently in college, but before that I went to Red Bank Regional High School where I received an Early Childhood Education certificate. I am looking to renew my CPR certification as well as a certification in First Aid Training. I have babysat children of all ages since I began officially babysitting at the age of 10/11. I started by taking care of my younger brother, but now I care for other children because of my love for children. Thank you for reading my bio! Hopefully I can babysit for you soon!

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.

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!

I am a 2023 graduate from Rutgers School of Engineering where I studied biomedical engineering. I was raised in an African home where kids were always running around and as the oldest it was my duty to take care of them, even from a young age. Working with kids has always come naturally to me and child development has always been an interest of mine. I am looking for a long term position with consistent hours (I am okay with a flexible schedule). I have been on Sitter City since 2020 and have worked in many different kinds of families. I have experience working with infants, toddlers, as well as children K-12 at a total of 5 long term positions. I have worked with children with learning disabilities and families with multiple children (up to 3). I have also worked as an art teacher at my local gallery for classes of up to 20 students ages 5-13. My services include the following: - Cooking (simple meal prep to full meals) - Cleaning (light clean up, organization, laundry) - Assisting with homework afterschool - Engaging in fun activities (arts & crafts, sports, music) - Driving (school pickup / driving to and from activities) - Early childhood development (reading, potty training, tummy time, etc) - Infant care (changing diapers, making/feeding bottle, burping, etc.) I am comfortable with pets (I have a 5 year old pomsky at home) and I have my own car ( a 2021 Nissan Sentra with full safety features). I am a non smoked, vaccinated & boosted for COVID-19, and I am CPR certified and trained in First Aid. I hope to be a good fit for you and your family and I hope to hear from you soon help your kids with homework, and even sing them lullabies. I am also comfortable with pets (I have a pomsky at home). I own my own car, am comfortable driving with children, am a nonsmoker, COVID 19 vaccinated (and boosted), as well as CPR certified. I look forward to meeting you and your family and hear back from you soon!

Hi there! For the past six years, I’ve had the pleasure of working as a nanny—a role I’m deeply passionate about. Building genuine connections with both parents and children has been one of the most rewarding parts of my job, and I’ve gained valuable insight into parenting along the way that I hope to carry with me in my own life one day. I’ve cared for infants, toddlers, and elementary-aged children. Through hands-on experience with a wide range of backgrounds and personalities, I’ve developed a strong understanding of how to support children based on their stage of development while creating a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment. As your nanny, I understand that I’m stepping into a very personal part of your family’s life. Because of that, I prioritize open communication, trust, and mutual respect between us. Your family’s routines and preferences matter, and I will always respect your parenting style and household rules. I pride myself on being reliable and proactive so that parents can feel comfortable and at ease. Children are incredibly perceptive and often absorb the energy around them. As some of their earliest role models, I believe it’s important for us to model patience, positivity, and calm communication. These behaviors help shape how children interact with the world. Part of my role is guiding children as they learn to understand and regulate their emotions so they can grow into confident and independent individuals. I also believe it’s important for children to continue expanding their knowledge through engaging and stimulating activities such as arts and crafts, reading, outdoor play, and age-appropriate learning games that encourage creativity and curiosity. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to assist with light housekeeping, meal preparation, and transportation to and from school or extracurricular activities. I’ve also traveled with families who needed an extra set of hands during vacations or work trips. I have several references from the wonderful families I’ve met through Sittercity and would be happy to provide their contact information upon request. I also have a detailed resume available if you’d like to learn more about my experience. Currently, I’m looking for a part-time (or preferably) full-time, live-out position. I’m based in Brooklyn but am open to commuting if we’re a great match. Feel free to message me with any additional questions. I look forward to connecting with you and your family! 💕

With a background as an art and music teacher, preschool and toddler educator, nanny, and literacy instructor, I bring over a decade of experience supporting young children’s growth in creative, nurturing environments. I am deeply passionate about helping children reach key emotional, social, and developmental milestones through engaging, play-based learning and consistent, patient care. My approach is rooted in kindness, attentiveness, and adaptability—qualities that allow me to work smoothly with families and meet each child where they are. Whether we’re painting, reading stories, making music, or exploring nature, I love incorporating creativity into daily routines to keep kids curious, entertained, and learning. I value strong communication and always strive to create a warm, collaborative relationship with parents and caregivers.
