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. In addition to my babysitting experience, I also have a bachelor’s degree. A little more about me: I am a very responsible, fun, enthusiastic, and loving caregiver who can provide excellent care for your child/children. 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!

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!

Hi Families! My name is Jo, and I have over 15 years of experience in childcare for all ages.

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.

Miss Stephanie has been wonderful with our kids! Our oldest has been with her since age 2, and our youngest since around 6 months. They are almost 5 and 3 now. The love and care Miss Steff has shown have far exceeded our expectations, and both children have flourished because of it. Miss Steff provides a thoughtful, personal, well-rounded experience for our kids. She carefully selects educational activities for them which have helped to develop their language and math skills, and has also helped strengthen their activities of daily living. Miss Steff is flexible and understanding to the max. She never appears flustered or frustrated, instead approaching each situation with a steady sense of calm and reassurance that helps the kids maintain the same. We couldn’t be more pleased with our kids’ experience in her care!

Jilitia was a godsend! Jilitia worked with me and my five month old for a month. She always showed up a few minutes before her shift and was super communicative. She also helped nap train my son. Jilitia is bubbly, really enjoys children, and is easy going. I would 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.

🌿 About Me I am originally from the beautiful island of St. Lucia and love returning whenever I can. Being outdoors is one of my greatest joys—I enjoy gardening, planting, and making the most of fresh air. 👩‍👧 Family & Background I’m a proud parent of two children who graduated from Rutgers University (New Brunswick). My passion for creativity inspired me to pursue studies in Child Development at Penn Foster, though I had to defer my certification for personal reasons. 🎨 Childcare Approach As a childcare provider, I enjoy sharing my love of nature, creativity, and art with children. I believe in creating a fun, enriching environment where kids can learn, explore, and grow. 🍼 Experience Since 2021, I have worked as a nanny for three families, caring for children ranging in age from 5 months to 5 years old. Most recently, in 2025, I cared for a 5‑month‑old, providing attentive supervision, preparing light snacks, and assisting with light housekeeping. These experiences have strengthened my ability to adapt to different family needs while ensuring children feel safe, loved, and engaged. I look forward to meeting your family and providing reliable, caring support for your little ones!
