Sophia C., Child Care in Great Meadows, NJ 07838 with 5 years of paid experience

Hello! I recently moved out of New York City leaving my job in childcare (ages prek-8th) of 3 years. Now I am back in school, training to become a Pilates teacher and generally have a flexible schedule. I loved working with the kids, and the emotional reward of impacting their small lives. In addition to my professional experience in childcare, I also have always had young kids in my family to look after. I want to be a mom myself one day, but until then, I will pour my love, nurture, and attention to others. Thank you for your consideration!

I have 2 amazing sons, ages 18 & 22 I have experience working in the infant and older infant room at a daycare. I am both first aid and CPR certified I love taking care of children of all ages. But honestly I think babies are my weakness as I absolutely adore them I started babysitting while in high school and I still enjoy it so much. I think of the children as my own while I'm caring for them, and stop and appreciate all the little things that are often times overlooked. I love doing art and crafts, music, reading and especially love outdoor fun. I truly get great joy being around them. I enjoy watching them grow, learn and develop into the little people they are destined to be

As a mother of four children and certified elementary school teacher, I have tons of experience!

Currently, I'm primarily looking for occasional, or one-time babysitting gigs! I am a reading interventionist working part-time, which is why I am seeking out occasional opportunities to care for children and pets. I am also a children's yoga instructor. My hobbies include reading, hiking, healthy cooking, yoga, and traveling. I look forward to meeting you and your little ones! Please reach out to me as I am happy to share more about myself.

Olivia M., Child Care in Great Meadows, NJ 07838 with 8 years of paid experience

During my time as a seasonal nanny for three different families, I had the opportunity to care for children between the ages of 2 and 8 from September 2018 to January 2026. As a nanny/sitter, I crafted fun and educational activities that aligned with each child’s interests, helping foster their curiosity and development. I also took great care in preparing meals and snacks, always following nutrition guidelines and food safety protocols. Additionally, I ensured safe transportation to and from summer camps, the town pool, school, and various extracurricular activities, contributing to a well-rounded and enjoyable experience for the children. I have experience babysitting for children with ADHD and anxiety issues which has taught me how to be patient and also create a more organized environment for certain kids. I have 8 years of experience babysitting and nannying and would love to find a babysitting/nannying job in New Jersey this summer. It is extremely rewarding and fulfilling being a sitter because I get to help families in need and introduce activities to kids so they can have a fun day!
