I think i have great potential to be a babysitter. I babysit my younger siblings all the time during the week and weekends. I also babysit for my aunts they have young kids and whenever they need a babysitter they're always picking up the phone and calling me! :) I know how to take care of kids well and put them to bed when needed.

We believe that children at these ages are in the most critical learning stage of the human life cycle.

I am a mom of 3 watching a few children out of our home in Orangeburg. I have openings for summer and fall 2018 ages 6 weeks to 5 years. I am also available for before school care for Franklin Ave elementary, the bus can be taken from my house with my own 2 girls. I have been watching children for the past 3 years and can provide excellent references. I love kids and am currently going back to school for my Master's in special education. Every morning, we do circle time. We learn the days of the week, the months of the year, and talk about the weather. Then we usually read a book and do an art project. After circle time, we go outside, weather permitting. I am big on kids having fresh air and outdoor play. As long as it's not raining or heavy snow, I bundle them up and get them out at least for a little while. If we can't get outside, I try to at least have them get some exercise by doing things like dance parties or kids yoga. I love reading to them, doing arts and crafts projects, playing games and singing songs. I am a big believer in play-based learning so I try to give the kids free time to use their imaginations and learn how to interact with each other socially but I also do structured activities like art projects and circle time. If you are interested, send me a message. We can meet, talk more and see if this is the right fit!

FAQs for finding drop-in daycares near you in River Edge, NJ

Drop-in daycare near you in River Edge, NJ can be a flexible and convenient solution for busy parents who need child care on an as-needed basis. This type of child care gives families the flexibility to drop their children off for just a few hours or for an entire day, depending on their individual needs.

Typically, drop-in daycares cater to children between the ages of 6 weeks and 5 years old, but daycares will vary depending on their facilities and requirements. When reaching out to drop-in daycares in River Edge, NJ, be sure to mention the age of your child or children and confirm they accept children in that range.

While drop-in daycares in River Edge, NJ may require a short registration process and forms to be filled out, it is usually not necessary to make a reservation ahead of time for each visit.
