Melissa G., Nanny in Avenel, NJ 07001 with 13 years of paid experience

Hi, I’m Mel! 👋🏼 I’m currently looking for long-term nanny or babysitting positions within 8 miles of Linden (excluding Staten Island). I’m seeking a consistent schedule that totals at least $400/week. If you’re interested, please reach out at least ONE month in advance so my current family has time to find a new caregiver. 😊 ABOUT ME: • 28 years old • Certified in Adult, Child, and Infant CPR + First Aid + AED through New Life CPR • Fluent in Portuguese, conversational in Spanish • Reliable, punctual, creative, and communicative • Passionate about creating enriching, memorable experiences for kids • Big fan of arts & crafts, science experiments, and puppet shows! 🧸 Experience: • Mostly with ages 2–7, some experience with infants and as a mom helper • Experience with 3 sets of twins • Over 7 years of driving children to/from school, events, and errands • Currently caring for twin 5-year-olds for 4.5 years 💰 RATES: 💡 Minimum commitment: At least $400/week (applies to part-time hours). Hourly rates below apply based on location and duties. 🍼 Babysitting (monitoring, engaging, prepping easy meals, bedtime, walks) • Within 4 miles of Linden: $25/hr (up to 2 kids) • 5 to 8 miles from Linden: $27/hr (up to 2 kids) • + $2/hr for each additional child 🧼 Nannying (includes tasks like laundry, fresh/cooked meals, bathing, schoolwork, planning activities, potty training) • Within 4 miles of Linden: $30/hr (up to 2 kids) • 5 to 8 miles from Linden: $35/hr (up to 2 kids) • + $2/hr for each additional child 🚗💨 If I’m driving your children using my car, gas compensation is required. 📎 NOTES: • References are available upon serious inquiry. Since I’m currently employed, I ask that families reach out only if they are genuinely interested and considering moving forward. I kindly request at least one month’s notice before leaving my current family so they have time to find a new caregiver. • If you’d like to run a background or vehicle check, that’s totally fine! However, please note that the cost is the responsibility of the family. These checks are only valid for a limited time, and as a caregiver, I can’t be expected to purchase a new one every few months for each potential job.
