Margaret L., Child Care in Suffern, NY 10901 with 14 years of paid experience

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!

She was absolutely wonderful with our little one. It was our first time leaving him with a babysitter outside of the family so we were a little nervous, but Margie put our worries at ease by sending us some text updates during the night (at our request). Our son was in a great mood when we got home and asked about her for a few days after. I would highly recommend her.

Cynthia was our nanny for 1.5 years. She developed an instant bond with our baby. She was attentive, organized playdates, and became a great friend to our whole family. We trusted her completely, and we never hesitated leaving our baby with Cynthia. We miss her so much and wish we still lived nearby. Any family is lucky to have Cynthia as their nanny.

Londyn G., Child Care in Suffern, NY 10901 with 20 years of paid experience

Hello Families, My name is Londyn and I am full time nanny (during the weekdays) and a student studying Pediatric Nuclear Medicine. I have been in childcare for 20+ years and am well versed in behavioral, mental, and physical milestones. I have experience with all ages, including newborns, and am first aid and CPR certified. I am a caring and nurturing person, and children have always felt comfortable near me. I have worked with children with behavioral issues, slower developmental development, as well as children with Autism and Downs Syndrome. For the family I currently work with, I do meal prep for the parents for the week, laundry, run errands, and all tasks involving the children (cooking their dinners, preparing their lunches, homework help, driving them around, etc.). I truly love being a nanny/sitter and working with children of all ages.

I am highly recommend Sandra R. to anyone needing childcare based on her time working with our family as an after-school caregiver and driver for our son. Sandra was responsible for picking up our 5-year-old son from preschool each weekday and safely transporting him home. From the very beginning, she demonstrated professionalism, reliability, and genuine care for our child. Before accepting the position, Sandra requested to meet our family in person, which immediately showed her commitment to ensuring a good fit and establishing trust with both parents and child. Throughout the time she worked with us, Sandra was exceptionally dependable. She was always punctual and, most importantly, she never canceled on us. As working parents, knowing we could count on her every day provided tremendous peace of mind. On the rare occasions when our plans changed unexpectedly, Sandra was flexible and accommodating, making every effort to help us adjust on short notice. Sandra has a natural ability to connect with children. She consistently engaged our son in conversation, making the daily pickup and ride home an enjoyable experience rather than just a transportation service. He looked forward to seeing her each day and was always comfortable in her care. It was clear that she genuinely cared about his well-being and happiness. In addition to being reliable and caring, Sandra frequently went above and beyond what was expected. On several occasions, she thoughtfully brought homemade food for our family, a gesture that reflected her kindness and generosity. Her warmth and dedication were evident in everything she did. Sandra was always professional, trustworthy, and safety-conscious. Her background in education and extensive childcare experience were apparent in the way she interacted with our child and handled her responsibilities. We always felt confident that our son was in safe and capable hands. I wholeheartedly recommend Sandra to any family seeking a dependable, caring, and experienced caregiver. She has been a wonderful support to our family, and I am confident she will be an asset to any household fortunate enough to work with her. Sincerely, Craig Pearl River, NY

Jayden R., Child Care in Suffern, NY 10901 with 4 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Jayden, and I’m a dedicated childcare professional graduating this spring with my Bachelors of Science in Psychology at Mercy University. I will be attending Seton Hall University for my Masters of Arts in School Counseling, this Fall. I’ve always been passionate about child development, and my academic background in Social & Behavioral Sciences, along with hands-on experience across a range of educational and therapeutic settings, allows me to support children’s unique needs in a nurturing, engaging, and safe environment. Over the years, I’ve worked with children of all ages—from Pre-K through middle school—in a variety of roles. I currently serve as a Teacher’s Aide for children in grades 3-5 in the Scarsdale School District, specifically in a special education ABA setting within a public elementary school, and I also have worked part-time as an ABA Behavioral Technician, where I support children on the autism spectrum with individualized behavior and communication plans. My previous experience includes roles in special education classrooms, after-school childcare programs, day camps, and mental health internship settings. I’m certified in Autism Education, Nonviolent Crisis Intervention, and Pediatric CPR/First Aid through Heartsaver. Whether I’m leading an arts and crafts activity, supporting emotional regulation, or helping with homework and daily routines, I approach every interaction with patience, empathy, and positivity. I’m particularly experienced in working with children who have IEPs or behavior intervention plans, and I believe in building trust with both kids and parents to ensure the best care possible. I bring structure, creativity, and a deep respect for each child’s individuality. If you’re looking for someone reliable, experienced, and genuinely passionate about kids, I’d love to meet your family!

What a pleasure it was meeting Jayden and working with him! He was super communicative/responsive/generous throughout the hiring process, even when I requested an interview and references! He was very responsible (arrived 45 minutes early and stayed an hour late!). We were coming in from out of town for a wedding, and Jayden jumped right into the fray with my infant (5 week old), 2.5 year old and almost four year old. He was there with my parents; sometimes caregivers in this situation do not know how to be helpful and just sit around waiting to be told what to do- not Jayden! He was warm, friendly, took initiative, took suggestions well, and stepped up effortlessly when my kiddos were having trouble following directions. He changed diapers, played well, and helped with meal prep/clean up. We look forward to working with him again soon!

Hi and welcome!! My name is Mia and I am graduate of American University with a BS in Public Health. I not only love, but have ample experience in working with children from various age groups. Most of my experience lies with toddlers as a nanny for high profile clientele, and during my time at Woodlin Child Development Center as a child care aide. Additionally, I've also tutored elementary/middle school age children as a fellow with Teach for America for several years. I am also comfortable with driving, with pets and food and tailored lesson plan preparation if need be. For a long time, I have wanted to pursue pediatrics so I have a great interest and passion for working with children and truly love every experience I get when it comes to educating and spending time with young ones. As for my availability at the moment, I am currently very flexible as I prepare to return to school. Please do reach out if you feel we are a fit! My best contact email is afomiafelleke@gmail.com or text/call at 301-793-7133.
