Alexandra  D., Nanny in Fair Lawn, NJ 07410 with 9 years of paid experience

I love working with children because of their curiosity, energy, and the joy they bring to each day. My experience spans several years in various childcare settings, where I have developed a deep understanding of child development and a knack for creating engaging, nurturing environments that promote learning and growth. What sets me apart from others is my genuine passion for helping children reach their full potential, my patience, and my ability to connect with each child on a personal level. I am dedicated to fostering a safe, positive atmosphere where children feel valued and encouraged to explore their creativity and individuality.

Jennifer R., Nanny in Fair Lawn, NJ 07410 with 25 years of paid experience

My name is Jenny, and there are 2 things I love in this world the most - children and music! I am an opera singer, mom and music teacher, and have over 25 years of babysitting and nannying experience. I started babysitting when I was 13 years old for neighborhood families, and then supported myself through college and graduate school with part time nanny positions. I also teach young kids to sing and play the piano. I am very responsible, caring and encouraging. I've raised 3 babies of my own who are school age now, and I have more free time. I'd love to be a part of your family's life!

Jenny has been babysitting for my son for about a year. He is now 6 1/2 years old. We love Jenny! He is now also taking piano lessons from here. He is watching me type this and says "I love having piano lessons with her. We love her!" I highly recommend her. She also dog sits for us.

Angelica A., Nanny in Fair Lawn, NJ 07410 with 10 years of paid experience

I’m an experienced childcare professional who has babysat for many families over the years, caring for children from newborns and infants through school age. Because I’ve worked with so many different families and age groups, I’m comfortable stepping into a new household, learning a family’s routines and expectations, and building rapport with children quickly. I previously worked for a babysitting agency providing childcare for families both in their homes and at hotels. This gave me experience working with families I was often meeting for the first time and helped me become very adaptable and confident helping children feel comfortable with a new caregiver. I understand that parents may be leaving their child with someone new, so I make communication, safety, and helping both the child and parents feel at ease a priority. Many of my babysitting relationships have also developed naturally through my professional childcare positions. While working as an after-school educator and coach, several families whose children I worked with began hiring me privately for babysitting. The same happened while I worked at an infant center caring for babies ages 6 weeks to 15 months. I really value that families who saw how I interacted with and cared for their children trusted me to continue caring for them outside of those settings. My broader childcare experience includes working as a full-time nanny, infant teacher, baby nurse at a postpartum resort, ABA therapist, special needs camp counselor, and after-school educator and coach. This has given me experience with everything from feeding, bottles, diapering, soothing, naps, and bedtime routines to play, homework help, outings, and caring for multiple children. I am also EMT certified and previously served for six years as a medic in the U.S. Army. My medical background has provided extensive training in first aid, emergency response, and safety. I’m warm, patient, dependable, and very hands-on with children. One of my strengths is being able to build rapport quickly, which is especially important when babysitting children who may not know me yet. I want children to feel safe and comfortable with me while also having fun, whether we’re playing, reading, doing an activity, or simply following their normal evening routine.

Arlene B., Nanny in Fair Lawn, NJ 07410 with 14 years of paid experience

Hi everyone, I'm Arlene a capable , responsible , fun , caring, loving nanny and I'm also a trained new born care specialist, I'm certified with over 16 years experience as a nanny as well . I'm trained in circumcision care, umbilical cord care ,getting babies on schedule and helping new parents transition into this new adventure in their lives. As a nanny I've grown to understand that every family and situation is different so I pride myself in learning new ways to bring stability and joy to each family I work with . Growing up I was the eldest in our home and therefore was left at times to to care of my younger siblings . I'm fun to have around , your children will be happy to have me as their nanny.I love children and enjoy their company immensely and find nothing is more rewarding than taking care of them especially babies is rewarding but sometimes challenging. Over the years, I have developed special techniques that prove useful in calming young babies, including the most restless ones. I am in favor of a structured day as it gives children an opportunity to follow a schedule, I believe in creating a positive, happy environment for children, one in which they feel protected and can thrive. I have good organizational and communication skills, which I believe are among the most important skills for a nanny. All my employers have been happy with my work and have often complemented me on my expertise in taking care of young children.I'm certified in CPR and First Aid as well and l have since then kept my certifications up to date .I believe such knowledge is important for a nanny and can be a life saver in case of an injury or accident.l have references available upon request , likewise a background check. I know I can be an asset to your family if you decide to allow me to be a part of it .

Arlene is knowledgable, reliable, trustworthy and above all, a nurturing caregiver to our son. She has provided us and our four month old with quality care and is deserving of a five star review! In addition to her knowledge and experience she has a very kind disposition and a strong work ethic. Arlene arrives at work on time and has accommodated us on several occasions by changing her schedule to help us. Arlene is extremely attentive and has a wonderful way with children. Arlene communicates well with us and sends updates and pictures during the day to keep us informed. We have made the right choice by inviting Arlene into our home and our family.

Edit I am an upbeat, interactive, articulate, attentive, fun, and very nurturing woman who has over 10 years experience working as a nanny. I have also been employed as a Hatha Yoga instructor to 1st, 2nd, 4th and 5th graders as part of an experimental remedial reading/writing art program. I genuinely enjoy engaging a child in safe, fun and creative play and learning via reading, singing and dancing, athletics, visiting libraries and museums, running around parks and playgrounds, crafts, stimulating games and puzzles that encourage mental & physical development, teaching baby sign language or fostering verbal skills through imaginary play & dress-up, yoga, and just lots of sweet, affectionate and cuddly time spent together. Sharing time and energy in the delightful and stimulating company of a child, as I create a supportive , positive, healthy and happy environment in which to laugh & learn, is my idea of a workday well spent! In many of the letters of recommendation included with my resume, are parents' descriptions of me as a very attentive, patient, athletic, articulate, affectionate and very positive influence in a child's life. Having cared for numerous challenging children with special needs, I am quite able to be firm, yet loving as boundaries are set and maintained in a fun, happy and respectful manner. While working as a Hatha Yoga instructor to NYC's P. S. 124 & 126's 1st, 2nd, 4th & 5th graders as part of an experimental remedial reading/writing art program, I developed my natural skills of being not only creative and firm, but patient, attentive, sensitive, athletic, articulate and very health/safety-conscious when it comes to the excellent and special care I enjoy giving to children. Their delightful and stimulating company, no matter what age, has always been an education and enlightenment for me over the 10 yr. nanny career I've worked in NYC. What a way to make a living! Engaging and exchanging time and energies with little ones {my experience is with 6 weeks. - 11 yrs. old } is so rewarding as I get to have my own life enriched and enhanced by their extraordinary curiosities, affections and rapid growth as I teach and model for them a strong, positive, cultured, healthy, self-confident, well-spoken, kind, engaged, artistic and creatively-adventurous woman. I have cared for children from Harlem to the Hamptons, and loved it all! 3-4 full days is my preference, but other schedules definitely considered

Adama B., Nanny in Fair Lawn, NJ 07410 with 3 years of paid experience

Hi, I’m Adama! I’m a full-time finance student and CPR & First Aid certified, currently seeking part-time or occasional babysitting (evenings, weekends, date nights, or short shifts). I have 3–4 years of childcare experience, including caring for children in both home and program settings. I previously worked as a youth mentor with So Shell Butterflies (HANAC) and provided care for a family with three children ages 3–12. I’m calm, reliable, and attentive, and I enjoy keeping children engaged through play, homework help, and outdoor activities. I adapt easily to each family’s routines and prioritize creating a safe, supportive, and positive environment where kids feel comfortable and cared for. I’m best suited for families looking for a responsible, dependable sitter rather than full-time childcare. I look forward to supporting families who need flexible, quality care.
