Hi! I am a college student becoming a child psychologist and advocate for abused and traumatized kids. I believe that children deserve the world, and adults owe it to them. I have been working with kiddos since I was 13, and I have loved every moment that I have shared with every child. Recently I have worked as a toddler and preschool teacher at a Canadian daycare company. I enjoy creating strong relationships with children while helping to strengthen and facilitate their relationships with their parents and family. I have experience developing lesson plans that uphold Pennsylvania's learning standards for childhood education, and finding ways to engage children in memorable ways that facilitate cognitive development! I can't wait to meet your child, and I hope to make a difference in your lives!

Hello my name is tamia. I am 24 years old and I love kids. I have a huge family myself. I have been working with kids and the elderly for going on 6 years now.

Hi there, my name is Andrew! I am a 3rd year nursing student at the University of Pittsburgh who hopes to work as a neonatal or pediatric nurse. My expertise is particularly focused towards caring for newborns and infants. Children bring so much joy into our lives and safety is my upmost priority. I have 2 years of previous work experience as a babysitter as well as 1 year of inpatient hospital experience in the postpartum unit and newborn nursery at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. I am comfortable with nightshift work, twins, and medically complex infants/kids. As part of my nursing education I am trained in adult and senior care as well. As a requirement for my work I have been cleared by the Pennsylvania Department of Human Services for work with children. The Pennsylvania State Police have attested that I do not have a criminal record. I am certified by the American Heart Association for infant, child, and adult CPR and other life support & first aid techniques. I would be happy to provide these documents upon request. In my free time I enjoy knitting, watching TV with my cat, drawing, and reading. I am very crafty, so if your kid(s) love art or science, we will likely get along great! I have always been drawn to cats and dogs, but am willing to branch out and meet other animals! I grew up with dogs, had a 10 gallon fish tank, and now have a cat named Buttermilk! On Mondays and Wednesdays between 11:30am and 4:30pm I am a teaching assistant and researcher at Pitt and will not be available those hours. I offer sliding scale rates for low income or single parent households. I understand how difficult it can be to find a caretaker who fits your needs and who you trust with your family, so I am available for zoom or in person interview. It is my goal to match with a family who are looking for a reliable babysitter for their kids long term! I appreciate your consideration and hope to be in contact with you soon!
