Reliable and Caring Babysitter with Real Experience
Hi! My name is Ayishat, and I’m an 18-year-old babysitter based in New Jersey. I’ve gained hands-on experience caring for my sister’s twin daughters since they were little, which taught me how to multitask, stay patient, and create fun, safe routines for kids. I genuinely enjoy spending time with children—whether that means helping with homework, playing games, or keeping them entertained while parents are busy.
I’m responsible, respectful, and easy to communicate with. I take pride in being on time and making sure kids feel comfortable and cared for. I’m currently looking for part-time or occasional babysitting jobs and am available on evenings and weekends.
Feel free to reach out if you’d like to know more about meI’d be happy to chat or meet for an interview!

I’m currently a college student pursuing my degree while gaining experience working with children. I’ve spent several years helping care for my nieces, including infant twins, which has taught me patience, multitasking, and how to keep children engaged in fun, safe activities. I’m responsible, dependable, and comfortable handling basic childcare routines such as feeding, playtime, and bedtime. Although I’m not yet certified, I’m eager to continue learning and can complete CPR or first aid training if needed.
Remember that feeling when you were a kid, and everything was an adventure? I still feel that way every time I babysit! From building epic Lego castles to reading bedtime stories with silly voices, I love being around kids. There's just something so awesome about helping little ones explore the world and seeing their eyes light up with joy. Babysitting isn't just a job for me; it's a chance to make a difference, one giggle at a time.
I can travel to neighboring suburbs/towns of Newark for work.
