🌟 Responsible & Caring Teen Babysitter | 6+ Years Experience 🌟
Hi, my name is Felecia Brutus! I live in East Orange and I’m 16 (turning 17 in March). I’ve grown up helping at my mom’s daycare and tutoring younger kids, which gave me 6–7 years of experience caring for children of different ages. I’ve also completed babysitting training, water safety training, and I always carry a first aid kit to ensure kids are safe.
I’m patient, fun, and dependable, and I truly love working with children. Babysitting isn’t just a job for me—it’s something I’m passionate about, and I’d be so grateful for the opportunity to support your family.
I'm looking for Casual/temporary, Part-time employment.
I can travel to neighboring suburbs/towns of East Orange for work.

I have 6–7 years of experience working with children through my mom’s daycare and afterschool tutoring, where I gained skills in helping kids learn, play, and feel safe. I’ve also completed a babysitting course and have water safety training, plus I carry a first aid kit to always be prepared. I’m very comfortable with pets and have experience caring for them as well.
I enjoy cooking, helping with homework, and keeping children engaged in creative and fun activities. I take pride in being responsible, caring, and patient, and I truly love working with kids. This job would be a wonderful opportunity for me to grow and continue doing what I’m passionate about—helping children thrive in a safe and happy environment.

I want to make sure you feel comfortable while you’re away, so I’ll always follow your rules and keep you updated if you’d like. My goal is to make sure your kids feel safe, happy, and cared for while having a great time.

Hi! My name is Laura, I’m 30 years old and recently settled here for a year with my husband. I come from a big family, so I’ve always been surrounded by children and naturally developed a love for caring for them. Over the years, I’ve worked several times as both a nanny and an au pair in Spain and in Canada, gaining valuable experience with children of different ages and family routines.
I truly enjoy creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment where kids feel comfortable and parents feel at ease. My background has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to balance playtime with structure. I’m also adaptable to each family’s needs and happy to help with daily routines, homework, or simply keeping little ones entertained.
I’d love the opportunity to support your family while I’m here and make your children’s days a little brighter.
