Gretta B., Nanny in Highlands, NJ 07732 with 6 years of paid experience

Hello! For the past 6 years, I’ve had the pleasure of working as a nanny, a role I am genuinely passionate about. With years of hands-on experience caring for children from a variety of backgrounds, I’ve developed a deep understanding of how to adapt to all types of family dynamics. Building genuine connections with both parents and children has been one of the most rewarding aspects of my job, and I've gained valuable insight and wisdom along the way. As your nanny, I recognize that I’m stepping into a very personal part of your life. That’s why I prioritize honesty, open communication, and mutual respect—so we can work together to create a nurturing, comfortable, and consistent environment. Children are like sponges—they absorb the energy and behavior around them. It’s important to lead by example, and address any obstacles with compassion, positivity, and patience. Every kid deserves a warm, enthusiastic, and attentive caregiver to guide them through life’s important moments. I’ve worked with infants, toddlers, and elementary-aged children. I’m also confident managing multiple children at once. Pets in the home? Always a bonus! Additionally, I am happy to assist with light housework, cooking, and transportation to and from extracurricular activities. I’ve also traveled to/with the family when they needed an extra pair of hands on vacation or a work trip. Your family’s routines and preferences are important to me—you can trust that I will always respect your parenting style and household rules. If there are any concerns, boundaries, or preferences, I’m here to listen and adapt accordingly. I have several references from the wonderful families I’ve had the pleasure of working with through Sittercity, and I’m happy to provide their contact information upon request. I also have a detailed resume available if you’d like to learn more about my experience. Currently, I’m looking for a part-time or (preferably) full-time live-out position. I’m based in Brooklyn, but am open to commuting if we’re a great match! Feel free to message me if you have any questions, and I look forward to hearing from you soon! 💕

Hi everyone! My name is Amira. I am currently in college, but before that I went to Red Bank Regional High School where I received an Early Childhood Education certificate. I am looking to renew my CPR certification as well as a certification in First Aid Training. I have babysat children of all ages since I began officially babysitting at the age of 10/11. I started by taking care of my younger brother, but now I care for other children because of my love for children. Thank you for reading my bio! Hopefully I can babysit for you soon!

Kate M., Nanny in Highlands, NJ 07732 with 2 years of paid experience

Hi! I am looking to get back into babysitting to help support myself through Physician Assistant School at Hofstra University. While studying Molecular Biology at Colgate University for undergrad, I also led a club offering after school care/activities for 4th and 5th graders at the local school. After graduating in 2022, I began working as a medical assistant at pediatric office, where I gained experience treating children for the last year. My favorite part of my job was interacting with kids of all ages, so I am really excited about getting back into baby sitting! Making the kids comfortable in the office and helping them feel better has been so rewarding, so I am looking forward to giving the same care to your children. In my free time I love being with my family and friends, going to the beach, and exercising. Please reach out if you’d like to know more about me, I would love to chat!

Stephanie V., Nanny in Highlands, NJ 07732 with 10 years of paid experience

I have been working with children for almost 10 years. I’ve cared for little ones as young as 3 months and as old as 12 years, and I hold a degree in Early Childhood Education. My top priorities are safety, communication, dependability, and always being warm and nurturing. I understand that trusting someone to care for your child is one of the toughest decisions a parent can make, and I don’t take that trust lightly. Your child’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priorities. Throughout my years of teaching, I’ve worked as a head preschool teacher (ages 3–4), taught STEM to children ages 5–10, and have taught at gymnastics to preschoolers. Where I helped develop a preschool readiness program designed to help build academic, emotional and social skills. Working with children comes naturally to me and brings me so much joy. I love creating fun, hands-on activities. From sensory play and crafts to outdoor adventures and story time that help kids learn and express themselves. I believe how we treat our children today shapes who they become as adults, and respect is the foundation of every healthy relationship. I always strive to create a positive, safe, and nurturing environment where kids feel confident, happy, and loved.
