Hello All, we are moving from Jersey City to suburbs last week of December and I would highly recommend our nanny Miriam Caceres to anyone who is looking for a full time nanny. She has been with us for 31/2 years, a second mother to my 6-8 years old , extremely dependable, super patient and loving. I and our kids dote on her. She is super efficient around the house, keeps the place clean everyday, does kids laundry and cooks food for kids whenever requested. She has kept us sane, especially with my work schedule. She is very familiar with Jersey city , takes our kids to classes, helps them with homework ( with 6 year old daughter) and above all she is honest, and is genuinely like an extended member of our family. She has a great family, both she and her husband have helped us many times with shopping , offered to take care of kids for few hours on the weekends. Above all she does not gossip, something I have noticed with other nannies and have personally experienced it. We have been are extremely fortunate to have her and hoping she can find a loving family she deserves. While ideally we would wish for her to find an employment starting Jan, however I also do not wish for her to lose an opportunity should there be one earlier in mid Dec. Please contact me if you are interested .I can be reached at 917-583-7165 . Monica Sadhu

Thanks for posting this- will pass it along!

I’m a producer with NBC News national network here in NYC.

I’m reaching out with a request in finding a family who is struggling with childcare costs. Looking to highlight a family where both parents have to work or one must stay home because childcare costs are too high. Or perhaps a single mom trying to work and pay for childcare.

They would have to be willing to share their story on camera and be open about their financial struggle to pay for childcare.

Looking to do the interview this week, Monday Dec. 11 or Tuesday Dec. 12.

Thanks for any help or leads.

Kindest regards,
Elizabeth

Nice! Thanks!

Hoboken hospital and their maternity ward should be SHUT DOWN. The experience described was no where near what I had. I learned about the pampered pregnancy program and spoke with the representatives at various baby fairs in the area and believe me it was not at all pampered. I felt like I was a prisoner in a third world country. In general, the nurses were not very supportive, pushed me for a C-section (after I was told that the head nurse wanted to make it for a BBQ lunch they were having on that day), left me on an uncomfortable and painful gurney approximately 5 hours, did not allow me to see my baby for about 6.5 hours, refused to give me medication, and when questioned, indicated I would have to remember to ask for my medication. They made it an ordeal to take me to breastfeed my baby and were all around unprofessional. I was told that I should have been left on the gurney to make it easier to be wheeled to the NICU due to difficulty accessing the unit and then asked if I could use the wheelchair hours after a forced unnecessary C-section. I was bullied by hospital staff and surrounded by a entire team who could not provide me a reason for C-section with the exception that it had been over 6 hours since my admission and that was what hospital policy allows. In addition, when I asked to lower the amount of epidural because I felt numb on one side, the anesthesiologist seemed annoyed and said, “I’m not doing this again” if I needed the levels to be changed again. I could not wait to leave there! No gourmet meals, robes, or candles. The hospital has less than a 10% breastfeeding rate and the nurses I had the pleasure of dealing with did not understand English, therefore there was a language barrier as well. If that’s not enough, I refused to get a vaccine for my baby, stating I would have my pediatrician do it, and was told they did it anyway and to sign the form. The pediatrician who cleared my baby appeared so inept that he couldn’t put a diaper on and handed my baby back to me without a diaper on. I’ve heard the hospital is in bad shape and the staff they hire is at most subpar and had significant issues with their maternity ward. They are trying to re-introduce themselves as baby-friendly and a “great” place to birth by allowing midwives privileges, however they lack the necessary training and have not changed their hospital policies to provide women the choices they are entitled to when it comes to birth. This place is unsupportive, unprofessional, and the most traumatic experience ever. Furthermore, while I was there the maternity ward was a like a ghost-town. Their were only three other women in the entire ward. Please, if you don’t want to face such trauma, do your research and DO NOT GO TO THIS HOSPITAL!!! I’ve birthed before and this is the worst place possible. Oh and the hospital bill….WOW! They got more from my insurance company than places in the city billed!

Should i have received an email confirmation if i signed up for competition?

Are you aware that kids are being turned away from their local public school in JC and put on a bus to another part of the city due to overcrowding downtown? PS16 is sending kids to a school in Greenville next to a gun shop. Not family friendly!

What is the process and fee to be a vender at this event. My 8 year old has a slime business and wants to participate.

I just wanted to ask, how do i volunteer?

Hello!

We recently ran across your website and wanted to reach out. We’re currently casting a docu-series for a major cable network where we are seeking kids with psychic abilities (ages 10-16) and their families. The goal of this series is to help families navigate through this and give them the tools to thrive.

If you happen to know anyone who would be interested in meeting with us, we’d love to hear from them. Please have interested parties reach out to us at [email protected]

Thank you and Happy New Year!
Beth & Christine

Hello, can new mothers still receive a sample/swag bag?

How do I become a vendor. Looking to sell crafts and candles. Please help.

Looking forward to coming with my grandson Hardin can’t wait.

I paid for the event and I haven’t received the link. Can you please send me the link?

We are hoping to find a new family for our amazing nanny, Melissa, who lives in Jersey Coty. Melissa has been with us for almost two years, since shortly after the birth of our second child. Our kids absolutely love her, and she them. She is warm, loving and kind, and is a joy to have in our home. She really takes time to get to know the kids and engage with them around their interests, and also support their development, for example, teaching our little one colors, counting, and letters. In addition to caring and cooking for our children, Melissa also regularly cleans our apartment and does the whole family’s laundry. She has truly been a godsend for us! Since the stay-at-home orders began, she has been especially helpful to us as we both try to work from home, keeping the kids out of our hair, helping with distance learning, and saving us from drowning under piles of dishes and laundry.

We had hoped to keep her on through the summer and then part-time once both boys are (hopefully!) in school in the fall, but due to a change in our circumstances, we are unable to keep her on past June. Melissa lives in Jersey City, NJ. She has been practicing strict social distancing in her own life, and is diligent in making sure our children are doing the same when she takes them outside. She even made masks for our kids!

Please let me know ([email protected]) if you might be interested or know of anyone who might and we will happily connect you with her!

Please check the info before posting. Sitting here at newport green at 4pm and their sprinkler, playground and sand area are all closed!! We came here after seeing this update.

Is this blog written before COVID-19? I wanted to make sure that these Restaurants are now open.
By the way thanks for this list. It really helps!

Lol, do you have to wear masks while your photo is being taken? 😛

We were very disappointed with this school and took our child out. They used to have trouble retaining students at the middle school level due to other choices but are now having trouble retaining lower grade students as well. We know MANY other families who also pulled their kids out. Be sure to do your research before choosing this school! (and don’t just go by online reviews that are often probably planted).

You’re missing West Side. The neighborhoods mentions are obvious.

Now I hope they revitatje Greenville section. Make it beautiful like the Downtown areas mentioned.

Everychild waits for summer activities to enroll. Nice article for keeping interest. Thanks!

I plan to attend next Monday (9/20)

Will this event require proof of vaccination for those applicable?

Hello!
