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!

Hello!, My name is Serena! I'm 22 years old and I love kids! I have been babysitting for a while, even if it's just my baby cousins, relatives, neighbors, friends of family, you name it! I try to be as responsible and attentive as possible, while also hoping to let out my fun side a little bit. Kids are such a joy to work with and hang around. I am a student in college, and this summer I am hoping to find some kiddos to look after and take care of your beloved kiddos! My current job is as a paraprofessional substitute so I have experience both educating and caring for children of all different ages from infant all the way to high schoolers. I’m currently looking for a summer position since the school season is ending soon!

My Name is Maria Smith and I have 10+ years in education, teaching religious education for my local church, substitute teaching, active Girl Scout leader and very active in my community. In addition, I am very creative and look forward to developing and engaging children with arts & crafts and outdoor sports. My “can do” positive attitude will engage kids during our time together. I lead with enthusiasm and possess a positive demeanor to inspire and motivate others. Education is constantly evolving and I am passionate on being a part of this evolution. I am a certified NJ Substitute teacher state for PreK-12 and teach English to children & adults in China. I am American Heart Association CPR trained and enjoy hiking, going to the beach, sewing and spending time with my 3 children and dog “Junior” in New Jersey.

Updated Sept 2021 No Availability. I have lots of energy and I blow parents away with my ability to keep up with kids. I already have been cleared with a background check. This also includes finger printed. I have many references Hello Moms and Dads, Mary poppins isn't available, but I am the next best thing. I work well with kids of all ages.I enjoy doing many activities with children and I have a lot of patience, and yes I have been tested before. I do not scream at children. I believe you have to get down to their level so they really can understand what you are saying. I am a big animal lover. Very warm hearted and affectionate. I have 3 dogs and a cat of my own and enjoy them very much. I have over 10 references if needed for childcare. I enjoy working with families instead of a daycare. I like to think of myself as mother's helper. Mom's should always come first in a child's eyes. I am just an extra set of hands when needed. I enjoy reading, getting messy with art's and crafts, taking trips to the library, going to the park, playing catch, baseball, playing dress up and with children. I do really everything. I have made washing a car into somthing fun in the summer time. I enjoy making kids laugh and have a good time. I can also be stern when needed, in the case of discipline I use the time out system. I am a hugh supernanny fan and i never miss a show. I have many references and I will show you that I am not just a great nanny but a great person as well. When it's time for me to go, I will always double check if there is something else you need help with and be more then happy to stay and finsih it for you. I am available ( I dress appropriatly and in the summer i always bring an extra set of clothes, because I don't mind getting dirty or going through a sprinkler with the kids)

Joanne is a new babysitter for my 9 month old twins. She is absolutely amazing with them! She can somehow get them calm even during moments of teething pains. Joanne has a great can do, relaxed, happy demeanor and has been an absolute joy having around. She is a terrific singer :) and has quite a repertoire of children's songs. She has a childhood education and care background and experience which I find reassuring. During nap time, she has happily helped us with projects around our house - e.g., folding laundry and lining shelves.

As a mother of four children and certified elementary school teacher, I have tons of experience! Rest assured, I have had criminal background checks because I am a teacher and have been vetted through the state of New Jersey. I've completed multiple trainings as well. 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.
