Rachel $25 per hour for 1 child

I am an experienced early childhood educator and caregiver with over 7 years of experience working with children ages 16 months to 6 years in both school settings and private homes. My background includes roles as a preschool and pre-kindergarten teacher, private preschool educator and nanny, and lead teacher at a nature school. My approach to childcare is holistic, nurturing, and developmentally focused. I love creating environments where children feel safe, curious, and excited to explore. I design activities that support social, emotional, physical, spiritual, and intellectual growth, including early learning skills, arts and crafts, music, storytelling, imaginative play, and hands-on experiences. I enjoy helping children develop independence, problem-solving skills, and confidence while encouraging creativity and curiosity every day. I am passionate about incorporating mindfulness, movement, and time outdoors. I have led yoga, breathing exercises, and meditation practices to build body awareness, focus, and confidence. Nature exploration is also central to my teaching, encouraging curiosity, compassion, and respect for the world around us. As a nanny and private preschool teacher, I’ve provided personalized learning at home, supporting daily routines while creating playful learning opportunities through art, puzzles, imaginative play, cooking, and life skills. I also founded a summer program called Synergy Adventure Days, guiding children on nature-based learning adventures to explore ecosystems, wildlife, and the beauty of natural parks. I love animals and have cared for dogs, cats, and birds. I am organized, reliable, and happy to help with household tasks, errands, and preparing meals or snacks for children and families. I have a naturally playful and childlike spirit, which helps me connect easily with children. I love being imaginative and fully present in their world; whether building forts, exploring outside, creating art, or diving into storytelling and games. Kids connect with me quickly, and I genuinely love the energy and wonder they bring. I strive to make every day fun, engaging, and full of learning, so children feel confident, joyful, and inspired. Families describe me as warm, nurturing, present, calm, and deeply attentive, with a joyful, engaging energy. My goal as a caregiver is to create a safe, loving, and inspiring environment where children feel supported, confident, and curious to explore and learn.

Booked by 1 family in Horsham, PA

Hello, my name is Jessica, but you can call me AJ! I work as a Special Education teacher for 3rd-5th grade, but have worked with children of all abilities ages 6-14 as a teacher and camp counselor. While I'm out of the classroom over the summer, I would love to help care for your family! Some of my favorite things are arts and crafts, nutritious snacks, playing outside, and developing learning skills through fun and engaging activities. I also speak Spanish, and would love to help your family practice skills bilingually.

I absolutely Jessica! I will definitely hire her again. My daughter Kynnedi absolutely loves you! Thank you so much for everything
