Lisa is an amazing babysitter. She took care of my 17-month-old daughter in Princeton, NJ, at our hotel for nine hours while I attended business meetings nearby. From the very beginning, she communicated clearly, was proactive, and arrived right on time. I loved how she built a genuine connection with my child within the first few minutes of meeting her. Her approach is thoughtful and confident, and her frequent updates throughout the day gave me complete peace of mind. I felt entirely at ease knowing my daughter was in reliable, caring hands. Lisa is incredibly kind, professional, and helpful. Thank you again, Lisa — when we’re back in Princeton for work, I’ll definitely reach out!

We had a great experience with Jayti, who cared for our two children for a full week. She was reliable, punctual, and handled daily responsibilities smoothly, including picking them up from school, preparing meals, and getting them ready for bed each evening. She was calm, attentive, and engaging with the kids, which helped them feel comfortable and well cared for right away. Communication was clear and consistent, and we always felt confident that our children were in good hands. We would absolutely recommend her to other families and we are looking forward to working with her again.

I'm a certified teacher with a Master's degree and five years of classroom experience (grades 3-8), plus substitute teaching across grade levels and subjects. I'm currently a homeschooling mom to my 5-year-old and caring for my 21-month-old. I offer reliable evening, weekend, and occasional weekday morning care. I have extensive experience supporting children from newborns through high school and genuinely enjoy spending time with kids doing what they love - reading stories, building with blocks or Legos, exploring outside, making crafts, singing songs, dancing, or diving into imaginative play. I aim to create a calm, warm, and joyful environment where children feel seen, heard, and cared for. I also offer academic tutoring, including reading intervention, writing support, homework help, and enrichment for elementary and middle school students. I'm comfortable helping out with pets and have my own car. My references are happy to share their experiences!

Nyasia G., Child Care in Cranbury, NJ 08512 with 3 years of paid experience

Hello! My name is NyAsia, and I’ve always had a natural passion for caring for others, especially children. I’m currently a college student pursuing a career in nursing, where I plan to specialize as an aesthetic nurse practitioner. My background in both healthcare and childcare has given me a strong sense of patience, empathy, and attentiveness qualities I bring to every family I work with. I’m CPR certified and also volunteer with local community programs that support families and children in need. Those experiences have taught me the importance of safety, trust, and compassion when caring for others. I’ve cared for children of all ages, from infants to school-aged kids, and I truly enjoy creating a fun, safe, and nurturing environment where they can grow and learn. I love doing creative activities like arts and crafts, reading, and exploring outdoors. In my free time, I enjoy cooking, traveling, and spending time with my family. Working with children brings me joy because every day is different they inspire me with their curiosity, energy, and imagination. I take pride in being dependable and making sure parents feel comfortable and confident knowing their little ones are in good hands.
