Joanna R., Nanny in Helmetta, NJ 08828 with 10 years of paid experience

I'm a certified teacher with a Master's degree and five years of classroom experience (grades 3-8), plus substitute teaching across grade levels and subjects. I'm currently a homeschooling mom to my 5-year-old and caring for my 21-month-old. I offer reliable evening, weekend, and occasional weekday morning care. I have extensive experience supporting children from newborns through high school and genuinely enjoy spending time with kids doing what they love - reading stories, building with blocks or Legos, exploring outside, making crafts, singing songs, dancing, or diving into imaginative play. I aim to create a calm, warm, and joyful environment where children feel seen, heard, and cared for. I also offer academic tutoring, including reading intervention, writing support, homework help, and enrichment for elementary and middle school students. I'm comfortable helping out with pets and have my own car. My references are happy to share their experiences!

Marietou B., Nanny in Helmetta, NJ 08828 with 6 years of paid experience

I am a 2023 graduate from Rutgers School of Engineering where I studied biomedical engineering. I was raised in an African home where kids were always running around and as the oldest it was my duty to take care of them, even from a young age. Working with kids has always come naturally to me and child development has always been an interest of mine. I am looking for a long term position with consistent hours (I am okay with a flexible schedule). I have been on Sitter City since 2020 and have worked in many different kinds of families. I have experience working with infants, toddlers, as well as children K-12 at a total of 5 long term positions. I have worked with children with learning disabilities and families with multiple children (up to 3). I have also worked as an art teacher at my local gallery for classes of up to 20 students ages 5-13. My services include the following: - Cooking (simple meal prep to full meals) - Cleaning (light clean up, organization, laundry) - Assisting with homework afterschool - Engaging in fun activities (arts & crafts, sports, music) - Driving (school pickup / driving to and from activities) - Early childhood development (reading, potty training, tummy time, etc) - Infant care (changing diapers, making/feeding bottle, burping, etc.) I am comfortable with pets (I have a 5 year old pomsky at home) and I have my own car ( a 2021 Nissan Sentra with full safety features). I am a non smoked, vaccinated & boosted for COVID-19, and I am CPR certified and trained in First Aid. I hope to be a good fit for you and your family and I hope to hear from you soon help your kids with homework, and even sing them lullabies. I am also comfortable with pets (I have a pomsky at home). I own my own car, am comfortable driving with children, am a nonsmoker, COVID 19 vaccinated (and boosted), as well as CPR certified. I look forward to meeting you and your family and hear back from you soon!

Howdy! My name is Lynn. I have 8+ years of childcare experience and currently work full-time as a Junior Account Executive with Elite Generations, supporting youth-focused nonprofit fundraising for Stand for the Silent. Outside of work, I love bringing creativity, patience, and joy into the spaces I’m in.

I approach every child as an individual and support them in a way that feels safe, encouraging, and uplifting. Some fun things about me: • I speak multiple languages: Spanish, Tagalog, illocano, and I’m working on becoming fluent in each! • I’m comfortable with pets. • I love music, reading, Disney movies, and spending time outdoors. • I’m dependable, organized, and very hands-on.

Zariah is very patient and was always engaged in learning activities with my child. She's personable and was great with decision making without me stepping in. She's hands-on and handled emotional tantrums with care and ease. My child looked forward to the days she would be at our home.

Natalie Denize-Scott cared for my three children from October 2013 to May 2026, including my twins since birth. She is dependable, nurturing, patient, and truly caring. Natalie helped with daily childcare, transportation, meal prep, bottle sterilizing, formula prep, and light housekeeping. My children loved her, and I always felt confident leaving them in her care. I highly recommend her to any family seeking a trustworthy and compassionate nanny or caregiver.
