I can’t say enough wonderful things about Sandy! She has been with our family for the past two years and has been an incredible caregiver to our boys. She is kind, loving, dependable, and truly cares about them. She keeps them active, engaged, and always on the go—whether it’s trips to the park, sports, music classes, playdates, or other fun adventures. She drives them wherever they need to go and is always keeping us updated throughout the day with pictures and videos, which gives us so much peace of mind especially for two working parents! Sandy has had such a positive impact on our youngest, who is now 2½. Thanks to her, he speaks and understands so much Spanish! More than anything, she has built such a genuine, loving relationship with both of our boys and treats them as if they were her own. They adore her! Any family would be lucky to have her!

Ayesha watched our 1-yr old daughter in our hotel room while we were traveling from out-of-town for a wedding. She was very easy to communicate and coordinate with - which really helped boost our confidence in booking a babysitter in another town. She even brought extra toys with her to entertain our daughter - which was very much appreciated! We certainly recommend Ayesha!

Hi, I’m Mel! Looking to work 1-2 days a week alongside my current part time which runs from 3-6pm tues, thurs, fri. Will clear out any one of my work days to work for you if the job is a fit. Open to positions within 5 miles of Linden. **Alternatively looking for a LIVE-IN job within NJ or NY.** I’m 29, CPR/First Aid certified, and have over 13 years of growing experience in babysitting and nannying for infants, multiples, twins, and neurodivergent children. An important aspect of childcare I value greatly is the connection and understanding I’m able to build with children to meet their needs— allowing everyone’s day to flow as smoothly as possible. I’m work with all sorts of energy levels and personalities and enjoy creating fun, enriching environments through activities like arts and crafts, reading, and creative play. 🚗 Must have a car I can use if the position requires driving. Mine is currently for my commute only. My rate starts at $24/hour and increases by $1 for each additional child (paid trial days included). References available upon request. I’m available for video, phone, and in-person interviews. Looking forward to connecting!

Hi everyone! My name is Esmina! I have over 7 years of experience in professional care plus a little over 5 years of my own as I have a beautiful daughter who just turn 5 in April. Before having my daughter, I was a mother’s helper to an awesome family in Long Island, NY. My position was a mix of everything! I picked up the kids from school, drove them to doctors appointments, play dates and extracurricular activities. I ran errands such as pharmacy trips and grocery shopping. I took the kids from the time they got home from school until bedtime as we had a solid bedtime routine. Laundry was done, folded and put away at least 2x per week as well. I love to cook so I made the family dinner every night and the kids loved it when I cooked! They also became interested and wanted to help me 😊. I enjoy what I do and love being around children… when you’re a parent they become your whole world. The mama bear instincts are there and I would care for yours as if they were mine! Look forward to meeting you!
