Josephine M., Nanny in Rockaway, NJ 07866 with 17 years of paid experience

Hi Families! My name is Jo, and I have over 15 years of experience in childcare for all ages. My past experiences have been with wonderful families who have welcomed me as an addition to their family. I took excellent care of the children and completed all the duties the position required on time. I consider myself a very reliable, trustworthy, honest, patient, and punctual person who puts a hundred percent into whatever the job requirements are. My strong references from my previous employers will prove that I would be a great fit for your family. I have a very energetic personality and multitasking is not an issue for me. I enjoy keeping your child happy at all times as that is an important factor to me as well as safety and wellbeing which I prioritize. Being an addition to your family is not just a job for me, it is my passion in childcare.

Hi! My name is Courtney. I have over 10 years of childcare experience, ranging in caring for children from 5 months to 14 years old.

I love outdoor activities, games, arts & crafts, sports, reading, being creative, and encouraging kids to learn. I am a very positive and upbeat person, and truly realize the impact I have on the children I care for. I am also very respectful & will follow any schedule or rules that you have set. I am an animal lover and am comfortable around any pets you may have. Please contact me for your childcare needs. Thank you!

We are from out of town and needed a sitter while we attended a wedding. Courtney was awesome-our kiddos really enjoyed her, she was communicative and flexible when our schedule didn’t go to plan. We would highly recommend her!

We are so lucky to have Laila care for our 3-month-old baby girl! She is very warm and kind. She was able to quickly soothe my baby and help her fall asleep for a nap. Our baby felt so safe and comfortable sleeping in her arms. It's obvious that Laila is highly experienced with infants. She is truly an amazing nanny, and I highly recommend her!

I can’t recommend Jennifer’s childcare service enough. From the time my daughter was a newborn through 6 months old, she has been in the most caring and capable hands. Jennifer is incredibly helpful, always going above and beyond to make sure both baby and parents feel comfortable and supported. She is consistently communicative, keeping me updated throughout the day and always making herself available for questions or check-ins. Most importantly, she is someone I completely trust, something that is priceless when it comes to your child. Knowing my baby is safe, happy, and well cared for has given me such peace of mind. I’m so grateful for the love and attention she provides every single day.

Brooke C., Nanny in Rockaway, NJ 07866 with 10 years of paid experience

With over 7 years of hands-on experience working with children of all ages, I bring both knowledge and genuine passion to every family I work with. I spent 4 years as an infant caregiver, where I built a strong foundation in nurturing care, safety, and supporting early developmental milestones. I currently work as a preschool teacher in Mt. Lakes, creating a warm, engaging environment that encourages children’s social, emotional, and academic growth. I hold an Associate’s Degree in Child and Family Studies and will be continuing my education at Rutgers University this fall in Childhood Studies. I am deeply committed to providing reliable, thoughtful, and developmentally informed care that helps children feel safe, supported, and confident. I especially enjoy working with infants and young children and value building strong, trusting relationships with both children and parents. I am currently available after 2 PM and am happy to drive locally for the right fit. Whether I’m comforting a baby, planning engaging activities, or helping a child navigate new experiences, I approach every moment with patience, care, and heart.

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!
