I am a 22 year old female and I am always at home. I have an 1 year old daughter that I take very good care of and I know I will be able to take care of another child just the same. Since I have this much time on my hands I am willing to help another mother or father with their child for at least $19 hour. We can look into this price if need be. My records are very clean and I will provide any proof that you need. Talk to you soon
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.

I have worked at a child daycare for the past 3 years as well as postpartum interning. I help children love to learn, lessen their frustrations with school, and begin to enjoy learning! I have done every sport under the sun and love to be active. I have CPR certification for adults, children, and infants. I also have a Basic Life Support credential.
I’ve been babysitting on and off for most of my life, whether it’s been for family or close friends, so being around and caring for kids feels pretty natural to me. I genuinely enjoy spending time with children, getting to know their personalities, and helping them have fun, feel comfortable, and find their own little joys in life. I’m looking forward to meeting new families and creating a safe and positive environment for their little ones!
