I am a responsible and caring college student with years of experience working with children of all ages, from family members to friends children. I have spent the past two years taking care of a close friend’s daughter, giving me hands-on experience in providing attentive and nurturing care. I am patient, reliable, and enthusiastic, with a natural ability to connect with kids and create a fun, safe, and engaging environment for them. I am also organized, trustworthy, and attentive to the unique needs of each child. While I am allergic to dogs, I manage it effectively with medication, ensuring a safe and comfortable experience for every family. My experience, compassion, and dedication make me a dependable babysitter who children enjoy spending time with.

Hi families! I am currently a commuting college student at Drexel living in Erdenheim and looking for more babysitting opportunities over the summer. I have in-person classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays until 2 pm so I am looking for work mainly on Mondays and Wednesdays as well as Fridays and occasional weekend hours. I have experience babysitting, working in a Spanish immersion preschool as an assistant teacher, and I recently completed an internship as a behavioral health technician working with kids with autism and other disabilities. I am currently studying psychology and my passion is making positive impacts in children's lives. I have experience with babies, toddlers, and school-age children. Please reach out if I seem like the right fit for your family! Looking forward to connecting!
