Hello my name is Kristine and I’m 52 years old.. I currently work for an elementary school during the day from Sept-June as an aide. When school gets out I try to find a summer sitting job to fill some of the weeks and help out a working family. I have a newer mid size SUV and can drive the children to sports or activities. I love pets that’s never a problem, I can prepare the children’s lunch and start dinner if needed. I also am available for weekend date nights or even an overnight if thats what you need occasionally. So if you need a sitter for the summer while your working please consider me, I’m very outgoing and helpful. I have been fingerprinted and background checked by the district I work for.. Thank you for taking the time to consider me and I hope we can meet or speak on the phone for an interview. Please send me a message on here and I will give you my cell so we can set up a meet or chat. Kristine

I have been in New Jersey for four years now, and moved near the Ridgewood area 2 years ago. I'm employed full-time as a Brand Manager as my 9-5, but love to add in babysitting outside of working hours. I am very passionate about child development, and love having fun with all ages of kiddos! I can provide additional references and work history!

Hi! I’m a caring and reliable nanny with over 14 years of experience working with children of all ages—from infants to teenagers—including special needs children. I love creating a safe, nurturing environment where kids can grow, learn, and feel supported. I also help with light housekeeping and household routines. I have my own car and a clean driving record, so transportation is never an issue. I’d love to connect with families who are looking for a dedicated, trustworthy caregiver—please feel free to reach out!

Hi! I'm a TV News Producer and mom to two princess-loving toddlers. I stepped away from the TV industry last year to focus on raising my girls (and to finally ditch that Manhattan commute)! I’m a mom so I know how important it is to find the right person you can trust and rely on to care for your children. I take that responsibility seriously and will always make thoughtful, smart, and quick decisions to ensure your little ones are safe, happy, and thriving. I am also an extension of you... so my style of childcare will mirror the way you choose you raise your little ones and I am here for support and to provide a helping hand... that all of us mamas need from time to time. About me: I grew up in Fair Lawn and now live in Hawthorne with my husband and daughters, where we love being a part of the Hawthorne community. My nurturing nature and desire to help other families has carried with me through more than 20 years of consistent childcare experience. Overnight infant care is my specialty. Running a newsroom also helped my organizational and management skills shine… and I can plan a birthday party or major event in my sleep!! Since I’m not working in the industry right now, my availability is wide open to help families in need of a helping hand. I have certifications in newborn and infant childcare and I do have all background checks completed on here. The background checks expire every 90 days so let me know if you’d like a copy and I will gladly provide along with wonderful references and my professional resume!! I also made my Instagram (@carasayssmile) public so PLEASE feel free to dig deeper into my life beyond these four paragraphs!

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.

Hi! My name is Jennifer Casey. I have a Bachelors and a Masters degree in education and have been teaching for 9 years. I have had the opportunity to babysit for families from birth until the children were old enough to drive. I have recently been able to witness my first kid (now grown up) get married this past July! I look forward to hearing from you and working with your child/ren. When babysitting, I enjoy being interactive with the children whether that’s taking them outside in the backyard or to a nearby park, making arts and crafts for an upcoming holiday or simply just reading.
