I have fewer personal experiences. I have two little brothers one whom is 13 yrs old and the other whom is 18 yrs old now. I also have a 7 yr old nephew who lives with me. I have been watching over them when needed by my parents. I’m very familiar with infants, toddlers and big kids due to the fact that I’ve seen my brothers grow, I’ve changed their diapers, I’ve fed them, watched over them, entertained them, helped them when needed throughout the years. I also have work experience at Little Learners in Hackensack working with children from infants to 5 years old. I currently work as a nurse at st Clare’s hospital . I am also a student pursuing my bachelor’s in nursing. I look forward to meeting you and your family.

Hello! My name is Lily and I would love to introduce myself as a babysitter. I hold a degree in Inclusive Education and have experience working with children of different ages. I enjoy supporting children in their growth with patience, creativity, and care, always making sure they feel safe and happy. Thanks to my background, I know how to adapt activities to the individual needs of each child, helping them learn and have fun at their own pace. I truly enjoy organizing educational activities, reading stories, doing crafts, going for walks, or simply playing, while also supporting daily routines such as meals, hygiene, and rest. I consider myself a responsible, trustworthy person with a genuine vocation for childcare. I also have an intermediate level of English. Even though I am still learning, I make a strong effort every day to communicate as clearly as possible, which also allows me to interact with children in English and continue improving. I would be happy to talk with you and share more about how I can support your family and help with your children’s care and daily routines.

My name is Yasmin. Responsibility and kindness are my most defining qualities. I come from a large family and helped raise many of my nieces and nephews from their birth. I can understand, with you as the parent, the need to feel safe and secure with your children's baby sitter. So you can thoroughly enjoy your night out. I'm not afraid to get my hands dirty, even if that means having to clean a dirty diaper or two. When I'm together with your children, firstly, I will follow your instructions to the letter and, if I have any questions, we will use our pre-arranged contact plan. I am happy to keep your children's playtime active; toys, coloring, games, story-telling, television (if they are allowed to watch), listening to music, and, most importantly, letting them guide our activities. Seeing a child go to bed with a smile on their face really warms my heart. I have knowledge about development milestones. Also, I am available to give Spanish lessons in person or virtual. Thank you for considering me as your next babysitter.
