Hi, my name is Precious I provide child care and household support services. I’m currently pursuing my Bachelor’s degree in Political Science at Arkansas State University (remote). Alongside my studies, I have several years of experience babysitting and working as an Assistant Teacher with toddlers and young children. In these roles, I’ve supported daily routines, encouraged learning and play and created a safe, positive environment. I also can help with light household tasks such as cleaning and organizing. My background in customer service and administrative support has made me dependable, organized and great at multitasking and I look forward to helping out where I’m needed most.
I am an experienced educator who has worked with children of all ages, teaching arts programs for kids and teens and serving as Director of several arts schools in the Philadelphia area. I hold two master’s degrees from the University of Pennsylvania, maintain current Pennsylvania clearances, and can support your child with reading, homework, educational projects, and creative activities. I am also a lifelong animal lover. I’ve fostered many cats and rabbits, currently care for a dog and two cats, and have experience with turtles and fish. I’m comfortable providing attentive, compassionate care for a wide range of pets. In addition, I’m happy to offer caregiving and companionship for a senior parent or relative. My summer schedule has flexibility, so if you need a different time range than what I have posted, please feel free to reach out. I look forward to meeting your family and becoming a dependable, supportive, and fun part of your summer schedule.
Hello, my name is Samantha. I am a proud mother of three boys and currently work with children in a school setting. I have previous experience supporting children with special needs in a clinical environment, as well as working in childcare settings. Additionally, I have provided in-home care for elderly individuals. I have a strong passion for working with both children and the elderly, and I value the meaningful experiences and lessons I have gained through these roles.
I am a newly retired pediatric nurse who recently moved to the Philadelphia area to be closer to my children after many years at the Jersey Shore. I'm now seeking part-time work as a nanny. I bring extensive experience working with children of all ages, including those with special needs, through my work with CHOP, Children’s Seashore House, The Yale School, and Bayada Nurses. I’m passionate about supporting families, creating a safe and nurturing environment, and building strong, trusting relationships. I’m also a dog lover, having just lost my beloved 17 year old Bichon and frequently looking after my 2 grandpups while my daughter and her husband are traveling. I am happy to help with your pets!

"UrbanSitter is my go-to for quality sitters! I can book weeks ahead of time or easily find a same-day sitter when in a bind. I even hired a part-time nanny during a daycare transition. Customer service is helpful and babysitters respond in a timely manner."
