Samantha $18 per hour for 1 child

Hello! Thank you for looking at my profile! As a child I was always the unpaid babysitter for my siblings and cousins. I was able to change diapers before I was even 10 so it comes naturally to take care and look after small kids. I’m very attentive and kind. I enjoy creative and fun activities! I currently take care of a family member as a caregiver for 3 years so that definitely emphasizes to my abilities to care, delegate and support others.

Brit $35 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Brit, an energetic, creative, and experienced caregiver with over 10 years of experience working with children of all ages, from newborns to teenagers! My love for working with kids started early, tutoring younger students in reading and math and babysitting throughout high school. In college, I worked as a Direct Support Professional for children with disabilities, and later spent several years nannying for families in Chicago. I'm outgoing, patient, playful, and a little silly! I love encouraging curiosity, creativity, learning, and adventure while creating a safe, supportive, and positive environment where kids can thrive. I'm also a great tutor, an excellent housekeeper, and happy to help keep busy households running smoothly. Beyond childcare, I have extensive experience pet sitting and house sitting around the world. I'm responsible, adaptable, dependable, and genuinely enjoy caring for people, pets, and homes. I bring lots of energy, warmth, and enthusiasm to everything I do—and I can't wait to meet you!

Samantha $20 per hour for 1 child

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.

Valeria $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Valeria, I’m 26 years old. I’ve been living in Philadelphia for over 5 years, with a majority of that time being spent as a house mate for families with school age children. I now live independently, but continue to provide care on for those who request my help. Most of my childcare experience has been through family references, so this is my first time promoting myself online. In addition to living with families, I’ve also worked with children going through transitional periods in their family dynamic. I have an excellent understanding of providing not only the routine care and maintenance necessary to a child’s structural development, but also providing emotional support when it’s most needed. My skills include conducting consistent morning routines— getting kids up, making sure they’re dressed nicely for school/programs, making breakfast, and getting them out of the house on time. Evening and night routines have always followed the same structure. As someone who comes from a family of caretakers (my mom has been a nanny for almost 20 years, same as my aunt), I value the importance of a child’s wellbeing starting at the foundation of their care, and creating a stable environment where the family knows what to expect is the best way to ensure of that.
