A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Sarah, I'm 20 years old, and currently in nursing school with the goal of becoming a pediatric nurse. I also work part-time at the hospital as a patient care technician, where I’ve gained valuable hands-on experience in caregiving and medical support.

I have a deep love for working with children and have always felt a natural connection with them. Whether it’s helping with homework, playing games, or simply being a comforting and reliable presence, I take great joy in supporting a child’s growth and well-being.

My background in healthcare has strengthened my ability to stay calm under pressure, manage routines, and respond with care and professionalism in any situation. I’m CPR-certified, responsible, and always attentive to the needs of both children and parents.

I'm looking for a nanny position where I can bring my compassion, energy, and medical background into a supportive family environment.

A little bit about me

Dear Families,

My name is Herma and I’m 33 years old. I’ve been working with children for the past 8 years and it is something I truly enjoy doing.

My last nanny job was for a wonderful family who has 2 children ages 9 and 11. I was with them for 2 years. The mother decided to resign from her FT job to stay home with the children. I still keep in contact with them because I truly love the family. I’d be happy to provide reference upon request.

Children are amazing but can also be a challenge. I’ve always been able to connect with the children and their guardins/parents beacuase of my nurturing and loving personality.

I love to teach, read books, play, do arts and craft and also cook with the children.

I take my duty as a nanny very seriously. I’m reliable, punctual and flexible. I make every effort to accommodate families needs and their busy schedule.

Please feel free to contact me. I am looking forward to hear from you.

Sincerely,

Herma

A little bit about me

Hi my name is mellisa.. I finishing my degree in child psychology and public health at Montclair state. I’m super bubbly,outgoing, and energetic. I love a good joke or playful time and always strive to make kids laugh since I believe making them laugh is a crucial component of child care and bonding. I believe it's essential to relate to children on their terms. I therefore strongly support "floor play," which includes active games, outdoor play, crafts, and other activities. I had a big family while I was growing up, therefore kids were always around. This inspired my love of structured play, my fascination with the development of infants, and my willingness to pitch in around the house whenever I could.

"Her compassion and patience when it came to dealing with my 2 toddlers and my 9 month old brought me peace as I knew she was caring for them perfectly. Her love for children is apparent and enjoyable to observe. I knew she was the right nanny for me through the way my kids lit up when she walked through the door. She is great at what she does !"
