Hello parents, my name is Jewel! I am 25 years old. I love working with kids!I’ve worked with children for many years. I’ve been a babysitter, nanny, camp counselor, and preschool teacher! I have a pretty flexible schedule and I’m very reliable. I would describe myself as a calm, patient, energetic, and kind human being who strives to make every day a good and safe one! I get along well with all ages! I’m very much into arts and crafts so I’ve bonded with most children that I’ve worked with by letting them be free to express themselves through their art.

Hi, I’m Alanah! I’m a dependable, caring caregiver based in Jersey City, NJ, and I genuinely love spending time with kids of all ages. Whether I’m keeping a toddler entertained, helping a school-age child with homework, or just being a steady, trusted presence for a teen, I bring patience and warmth to every family I work with. I have hands-on experience caring for children across all age groups, and my background in education and instructional design means I’m comfortable making learning fun when the moment calls for it. I’m also an animal lover with five pets of my own, so your little ones are in good hands whether they want to talk about their favorite animal or introduce me to the family dog. I believe kids thrive when they feel safe, heard, and genuinely cared for, and that’s exactly the environment I aim to create. I’m organized, communicative, and committed to giving parents real peace of mind while they’re away. I’d love to connect and find out how I can support your family!

My name is Emma, I am a passionate musical theatre student currently enrolled in college. But I have another passion for teaching young kids! I am an experienced babysitter, recently for a very energetic 3 year old, but also for my niece who I’ve been babysitting her whole life and she is now 8. So I would be able to help babies/kids of any age! Whether it be changing diapers or helping with homework. I love being able to help keep kids engaged by playing games with them, singing and dancing with them, arts and crafts or whatever they may enjoy! I also love helping kids with their development by reading, and teaching them new things they may not know. I will always be sure to talk through any big emotions your child may be having and make sure they know they are in a safe environment with me. I would be happy to answer any follow up questions!
