Hi families! 😊 My name is [Your Name], I’m 28 years old, a proud mom, and a passionate childcare provider based in Harrison, NJ. I recently moved to Hudson County and am excited to connect with wonderful families in the area! Working with children has always been something I genuinely love. As a mom myself, I understand how important it is to find someone who makes your little ones feel safe, loved, and comfortable while giving parents peace of mind. In addition to childcare, I’m also a basketball coach and currently coach soccer with the New York Red Bulls. Being a coach has allowed me to develop patience, leadership, creativity, and the ability to connect with children of different ages and personalities. I love keeping kids active, encouraging them to learn new things, and creating fun, meaningful experiences through play. What I love most about working with children is getting Read more to see their personalities shine, watching them reach new milestones, and being someone they can look forward to spending time with. I pride myself on being nurturing, attentive, dependable, and communicative. I understand that inviting someone into your home and trusting them with your children is a big decision, and I never take that responsibility lightly. Whether we’re doing arts and crafts, playing outside, reading stories, or simply enjoying a fun day together, my goal is always to create a positive and loving environment where your children feel comfortable being themselves. I look forward to meeting your family and hopefully becoming someone you can count on! ❤️

Karina agreed to be our babysitter for our two kids for a few hours while we were in New Jersey for one night to attend a party. We had many email and text exchanges right up to the morning of the day she was going to take care of our kids. When we arrived at the place we were supposed to meet, she wasn't there. We tried to call her but she never picked up and never called. She simply ignored our calls and in the end we had no one to look after our kids. Since then, she has never communicated to explain what happened. I've never come across such callous unprofessionalism. I hope no one else is unlucky enough to rely on Karina. We deeply regret not selecting one of the other seven babysitters that had expressed an interest in looking after our kids.

She wasn't always on time and she quit on us a Sunday night after only 5 weeks. Was disappointed in our experience.
