Hello, my name is Teresa and I’m excited to have the opportunity to work with you and your family. I live in Oakland (Montclair) but I’m open to commuting to work. I’m a mother, grandmother and I’m bilingual Spanish. I work as a school bus driver for 18 years and over 20 years of experience working with infants, toddlers and young children. I’m highly skilled in newborn care, time management and multi-tasking. My areas of expertise are infant sleep training (help infants to adjust to a consistent sleep schedule), potty training and preparing healthy age- appropriate meals. I strive to create an atmosphere where your child is safe, happy and well- nourished. I’m patient, reliable, committed, and trained in First Aid/ CPR. Resume and references available upon request, and I’m available to travel domestically and internationally.

JUSTIN C.
I have two younger children ages 4 and 6 and she has been fantastic. She has a lot of life experience with children and brings a very calm and confident approach to handling the children. With very little direction she quickly jumped into the flow of our morning routine and helps get the children up, fed, dress and drives them to school. She does multiple drop offs and I am very grateful that she is a very experienced driver. It was always a concern of mine that I would need to work with someone who could handle longer drives to multiple schools. I enjoy chatting with Teresa and am very thankful to be working with her.

We have known Liliana for quite some time. We first met her when our son was three years old, and he is now 15 years old. She served as a babysitter for us for quite some time, including driving our son around the city for a different Sports practices. We have good things to say about Liliana. Now we are using her more for tasks around the house, as our son does not need a babysitter any longer. We, recommend Liliana without reservation. She’s very communicative and trustworthy. We can rely on her to house sitting while we’re gone as well. She’s definitely great with kids and very creatively entertaining them as well. Highly recommend her.

I’m a warm, grounded caregiver who focuses on helping children feel truly seen, safe, and understood. My approach is rooted in mindful communication, emotional awareness, and creating a calm, consistent environment where children can explore, express themselves, and build confidence. I support early communication and independence through tools like baby sign language, offering choices, and guiding children through big feelings with patience and empathy. I value play-based learning, outdoor time, creativity, and simple daily routines that help children feel secure and engaged. As a mother, I bring a deeply attuned and intuitive presence to my work. I understand how important trust, consistency, and emotional safety are in a child’s development, and I approach each family with care and respect for their unique rhythm. I have experience caring for children from infancy through school age, including supporting siblings, managing routines, and creating engaging, screen-free days filled with play, learning, and connection. I aim to be a steady, positive presence that feels like an extension of the home. I offer a flexible rate range depending on the level of support needed and am always open to a thoughtful conversation about what feels aligned for both the family and myself.

I have over seven years of babysitting experience working with children of all ages—from infants to pre-teens—and absolutely love helping kids learn, play, and grow in a safe and positive environment.

Sage was very friendly, responsive and on time. My child reported that she was not very engaging with her, claiming allergies made her tired. My child is very easy to play with, so this was surprising.

Veronica is patient, creative and skilled in working with little ones. She's been watching my 3 year old since he was about 6 months old and he loves playing with her. He is high everyday and she keeps up with him and his active needs. She makes meals and does light baby-related clean up like organizing toys and activities for him. She does pick ups and works with our busy schedule. She ya always on time and reliable. I'd highly recommend her. She has also watched and picked up my older daughter (13) on occasion and can work well with children at any age finding age-appropriate activities and a flexible structure for sitting. My kids both love her. I give her my highest recommendation!

Hello my name is Brenda and I am a Latina female. When it comes to being a sitter I love every part of it. Especially having the opportunity to see the personality of the child, and the amazing person they become while providing a safe, fun and caring environment where they feel safe to be themselves. All while helping them have an environment to grow while fulfilling your family’s needs. A little about me: I speak fluent English and Spanish and I am currently learning ASL (American Sign Language) and am studying to major in nursing. I previously have taken care of kids ages 4 months - 10 years old, and I am Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED certified.
