Narrative:
We were climbing out on the teb 8 departure from runway 24. We were supposed to level at 1;500 until 4.5 DME from teb. I was the pilot not flying. We had briefed the departure and I had the text on my knee board. I called out 500 ft for 1;500 ft. While I was contacting approach the pilot flying started the turn to a 280 heading but did not level off. By the time I could take control we had already reached 1;800 ft. The altitude alerter was set at 1;500 ft. For some reason the pilot flying thought she could continue the climb to 2;000 ft once we started the turn. The approach controller did not acknowledge the deviation and asked us to climb to 4;000 ft. It was just a mental error on the pilot flying because we had discussed in detail that I would let her know when we passed 4.5 DME and I would change the alerter to 2;000 ft and we could continue the climb.
