Christine $25 per hour for 1 child

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!

Olivia $16 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Olivia and I would absolutely love to babysit for your family! I have nine nieces and nephews I've helped my sisters care for since I was 10, so I have lots of experience and love kids more than anything. For example, I spent the first part of the COVID pandemic with my sister helping her raise her two newborn twins (while also caring for two older boys!) I received my undergraduate degree in Applied Exercise Science at the University of Michigan in 2023. I am currently earning my master's and teaching certification from IUP to become a K-12 health and PE teacher here in Philly! Multiple families have rehired me for years and I've had the privilege of watching their kids grow from newborns to kindergartners and beyond! I dogsit as well and am CPR/First Aid certified and fully vaccinated. If you're curious, I have a five-star rating on the babysitting app Bambino with 24 reviews. I love caring for children and look forward to doing so here in Philly!

Booked by 1 family in Hatboro, PA

Hi Everyone! I am Abigail, 20 year old Au Pair from South Africa. I spent almost 2 years teaching at a daycare centre as well as tutoring and babysitting occasionally. I love spending time with kids and can do anything from cooking to helping with homework, etc. I am currently an Au Pair for a lovely family with three little boys from ages 2 years to 8 years old. I am also comfortable petsitting cats and dogs and house sitting.

“Abigail is currently our superstar Au Pair and has been living with us for the last few months. She predominantly cares for our 2 year old son, but also helps with our older two boys when they return from school (ages 5 and 8). She is wonderful with the boys and she has built an incredible relationship with all 3 of them. She's also very patient and her teaching experience really helps them with their learning and homework needs. She creates a warm, welcoming and enriching environment that ensures the kids have an optimal opportunity to thrive. She's highly reliable and always goes above and beyond our needs. She has a lot of free time in the evenings and over weekends, so I'll highly recommend her as a babysitter for any family.”
