We feel so lucky to have Laila caring for our little one full-time. Being a mom of four herself, her experience shines through in every interaction, but she’s also wonderfully respectful of how we want to raise our child and follows our routines effortlessly. She is incredibly attentive, kind, and always manages to get big smiles out of our baby. Any family would be lucky to have her!

Hello! My name is Josefina, and I am a dedicated, compassionate, and highly experienced professional nanny with over 15 years of providing exceptional childcare to families of all ages. Caring for children has always been more than a career for me—it’s my passion. I take pride in creating a safe, nurturing, and loving environment where children can grow, learn, and thrive. Throughout my career, I have cared for newborns, infants, toddlers, school-aged children, and multiples. I understand that every child is unique, and I tailor my approach to support each child’s developmental, emotional, and educational needs Whether it’s establishing routines, preparing healthy meals, organizing engaging activities, helping with homework, or encouraging social and emotional development, I strive to provide dependable, attentive care every day. I have experience working with busy professional families and understand the importance of being reliable, organized, flexible, and maintaining complete confidentiality I enjoy planning age\-appropriate educational activities, reading, arts and crafts, outdoor play, and helping children build confidence, independence, and positive manners. I hold professional childcare certifications, including CPR and First Aid certification, and I remain committed to following the highest safety standards. My goal is always to give parents peace of mind, knowing their children are safe, happy, and well cared for while they are away. Families describe me as warm, trustworthy, patient, dependable, and nurturing\. I value open communication and work closely with parents to ensure consistency in routines, expectations, and childcare goals. I look forward to becoming a trusted part of a family’s support system and creating meaningful, lasting relationships while helping children reach their fullest potential.

Molly M., Nanny in Rockaway, NJ 07866 with 1 year of paid experience

Hi I’m Molly! I’m a comic book artist, looking for extra work! I absolutely adore children, and believe there’s nothing more fulfilling than helping families. I have previous nannying experience in college. I nannied for a 2-year-old boy and 5-year-girl. I also have my very own 5-year-old sister, so I’ve seen every meltdown, every smelly diaper, and every crazy situation you can imagine! I have additional mental healthy training from my experience as a peer mentor at Montclair State University (however, those were very big kids!!) As an artist, I have a very active imagination so we can definitely play pretend, make cookies (not to brag, but my fiancé thinks I make the best chocolate chip cookies), or do whatever the kiddos want—within reason of course, haha!

Kelly has been and is currently our sitter of choice for the past 9 years! She started with us when my younger son was an infant and my oldest was a toddler. My kids loved her from the start. She was very engaging with them and kept them occupied by playing games or reading stories etc. She always made them feel safe and cared for. As a parent what I loved most, was at the end of the evening, we would get a full report of the nights event from Kelly. We could tell she really knew our kids. Kelly is hands down the most reliable, responsible and hard working babysitter I know! She never hesitated to reach out if there was a question or concern, but also was mature enough to handle situations on her own and totally appropriately. My husband and I trust her completely with our two sons and our dog which she pets sits for while we are away. We never worry when Kelly is with our kids or taking care of our dog and home. We feel truly blessed to have met Kelly many years ago and welcomed her into our lives. We really can't rave enough about the quality individual she is!
