Hi! My name is Carol and I would like to tell you a little bit about myself. I am a mother of three kids ages 23, 21 & 17. I love being a mom, I adore children and I pride myself on my integrity and honesty. I have plenty of experience just being a mom and I have watched babies and young children in the past. I love being a home-maker and being in an organized space.

I am 33 years old with 17 years experience working with children. I have cared for children as young as 3 weeks to 8 years old. I have an associates and a bachelors degree in Early Childhood Education, and I am currently pursuing a Masters degree in Elementary education. I absolutely love children and consider myself fair, fun and protective. I treat children as I would want my future children to be treated. I enjoy going out to the park, on walks, to the library, or having fun indoors on those rainy days. My master's degree is online, so it should not cause an issue as I am watching your child. I am CPR certified and fingerprinted with the DOE. I can't wait to meet you.

From my first babysitting job when I was a teenager- I have always loved working with kids, watching them grown up and being a part of helping with that growth. I have worked both in the home and in the classroom and use my skills to provide a balance of both play and work for your child. Also by using my artistic & design background I like to create new projects and experience with my kids to help them learn different skills through play and fun! I have mostly worked with children from infancy through kindergarten. However, I do have experience up to the average age of 12. I have a range from being a date-night babysitting to being a classroom aide to living with a family and helping take care of their children. I also have used creative learning through play a lot and have worked extensively with kids with special needs. I hope to find families that could be a great fit and benefit from my experience and bring some fun memories into their lives! ** PLEASE Look at my availability calendar to see the dates and times I am open- however, this can always change so feel free to message me and we can work something out** Thank you!

Hi, my name is Chrissi. As a mother of four fantastic kids, I have been through all of the ups and downs of childcare. I have a 25 year old daughter (just finished up her BA @ Howard University where she pitched for the Bison and won the MCAA. She as also completed her masters @ Kean University here in NJ) and now coaches for them. Next are our twin 24yr olds (Pitcher/Catcher @ Centenary University - Criminal Justice & Finance) presently work with my husband as electricians. That leaves my baby who is far from a baby brings up the rear @ 18. She currently attends Donovan where she plays softball and has gotten herself a full ride to Dartmouth. We raise a variety of animals here at home and do lots of crafts and outdoor visits. My Philosophy: Give Respect, You Get Respect I have provided childcare for numerous families in NJ and have experience with many animals/pets. I have reliable transportation as well as a clean drivers license. I am presently updating my first aid and cpr certifications. In my free time which isn’t much, (lol) I take care of my 82 yr old Mom, entertain family n friends & I love to cook! I’m also not afraid to get wet or dirty nor am I afraid of children that tend to try and rule the roost. Life is short and as such it’s best just to see a child smile 😊
