Why I Love Being a Sitter I’ve always loved caring for children—it comes naturally to me. As a mom of two and a former teacher, I know how important it is to create a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where kids feel seen and supported. I genuinely enjoy helping children grow, learn, and explore their unique personalities. Whether we’re reading stories, doing crafts, or just sharing a laugh, I find so much joy in building those special bonds. ⸻ My Experience My childcare journey started early—babysitting as a teen, then working summers as a camp counselor and certified lifeguard. I went on to earn a Master’s in Elementary Education and spent years teaching kindergarten, 2nd grade, and 6th grade. I also led the tennis program at Deer Mountain Day Camp, working with kids of all ages and skill levels. I’ve supported children in all stages of development and feel confident handling routines, schoolwork, playtime, and everything in between. ⸻ My Skills & Training • Master’s Degree in Elementary Education • Certified Lifeguard (past) • CPR & First Aid knowledge • Strong classroom management and communication skills • Experience with children from infants to pre-teens I’m patient, attentive, and calm under pressure—qualities that help children feel secure and help parents feel at ease. I’m currently looking for a part-time position that could grow into something more consistent or full-time down the line. I bring warmth, structure, and years of hands-on experience, and I’d love to find a family I can build a lasting relationship with.

Lisa has been a big help with my toddler while I work remotely. She is always readily available and arrives with a big smile. You can tell she truly enjoys teaching through play and caring for children. I know my child is safe and happy when they play together, and that makes me feel great.

Hellen was God-sent to me with my twin daughters. She started with us since they were 6 months old and was such a kind and caring babysitter. She is reliable and consistent and communicates very well. She also takes feedback well. The girls loved her and still mention her name. Anyone would be lucky to have her.

For the past 10 years I have served as a baby sitter working with children ages, two weeks to 15 years old including children with down syndrome, autism, bi-polar, and mild special needs cases. Since 2005, I have been employed by the Board of Education working with children preK- grade5. In addition, I have training in CPR, EpiPen, and first aid certification. I try to be as flexible as possible when I am working with my kids, by doing things they enjoy doing, as well as, parent preferences. I enjoy playing with the children outside, reading, playing board and computer games, swimming, playing with dolls, legos, trains, painting, watching appropriate television shows and/or movies, and of course homework when necessary. Presently I am looking for weekend work, but after June 23rd, the school year will come to a close and I will be available throughout the summer months, and into the school year. I have a number of references that are available for your review, upon request.

Jenine is a wonderful sitter and a lovely person. She is prompt, polite and very kind. Our daughter is very sensitive but it did not take long for her to warm up to Jenine. She knows how to assess the temperment and mood of a child and make them feel at ease. We feel secure when our 3 year old is in her care.

We would definitely recommend Suzanne. We had her help out primarily with a one-year-old, while the parents were around but enjoying a big 40th birthday celebration. Suzanne kept the baby safe when he wanted to explore the pool and keeping him entertained so his parents could enjoy the weekend. She was patient and attentive, and really everything we needed. Thanks, Suzanne!

We feel so lucky to have Laila caring for our little one full-time. Being a mom of four herself, her experience shines through in every interaction, but she’s also wonderfully respectful of how we want to raise our child and follows our routines effortlessly. She is incredibly attentive, kind, and always manages to get big smiles out of our baby. Any family would be lucky to have her!

Hi I’m Molly! I’m a comic book artist, looking for extra work! I absolutely adore children, and believe there’s nothing more fulfilling than helping families. I have previous nannying experience in college. I nannied for a 2-year-old boy and 5-year-girl. I also have my very own 5-year-old sister, so I’ve seen every meltdown, every smelly diaper, and every crazy situation you can imagine! I have additional mental healthy training from my experience as a peer mentor at Montclair State University (however, those were very big kids!!) As an artist, I have a very active imagination so we can definitely play pretend, make cookies (not to brag, but my fiancé thinks I make the best chocolate chip cookies), or do whatever the kiddos want—within reason of course, haha!

Caring, Reliable and Attentive Nanny & House Manager Hi I'm Nittaya, I’m a calm, caring, and dependable nanny who genuinely enjoys supporting children and helping make family life a little easier. I’m naturally attentive and patient, and I take the time to understand each child’s personality, emotions, routines, and individual needs. I enjoy keeping children engaged through reading, music, dancing, educational activities, trips to the playground or park, and age-appropriate activities that encourage them to learn, explore, and have fun. I’m also very observant and pay attention to changes in a child’s mood, appetite, energy, or behaviour so I can give them extra care and attention when they need it. Alongside 8 years of childcare experience, I bring more than 25 years of hands-on experience managing a home and raising my own two (now fully grown) children. Being a long-time homemaker taught me how to manage busy routines, stay organised, plan ahead, maintain a comfortable home, and notice the little things that need to be done before they become another task for the family. I also have 5 years of companion caregiving experience, supporting an older adult from age 83 to 88. This strengthened my ability to stay calm in unexpected situations, follow instructions carefully, adapt quickly, and care for others with patience and respect. I understand that every family has its own routines, preferences, and way of doing things. I’m a good listener, respectful of boundaries, and happy to learn how your household works rather than assuming one approach fits every family. Whether I’m caring for the children, helping around the home, or doing a little of both, my goal is to be someone the family can genuinely rely on. A little about me: - Bachelor’s degree - 8 years of childcare experience - 5 years of companion caregiving experience - 25+ years of household management experience - Calm, dependable, organised, and attentive - References available upon request Availability: - Full-time Nanny, House Manager, or Mother’s Helper positions. - Weekday and weekend schedules are flexible and can be discussed.

Nittaya has been with our family for over six months, and we’ve had a wonderful experience with her. She is caring, patient, dependable, and truly attentive to our child’s needs. Over the past several months, we’ve seen great progress, especially in working independently on different tasks and in socializing and interacting with other children. Nittaya has been very supportive in helping build these skills and confidence. We really appreciate the care and attention she provides and feel very fortunate to have her as part of our family. I would highly recommend Nittaya to any family looking for a kind, responsible, and dedicated nanny.
