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!

Juliet $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Juliet, I am a 31 year old residing in Bella Vista, and I have over a decade of experience caring for children ranging from toddlers to teens. I currently nanny for a 2.5-year-old and previously cared for two school-aged children, as well as worked as an after-school teacher with students from Pre-K through 6th grade. I became an aunt when I was 12 and took a very active role in the care of my niece and nephew, so childcare is near and dear to my heart! I love supporting children’s growth through play, creativity, and consistency. With a background in psychology, I bring a trauma-informed and developmentally focused approach to childcare, making sure each child feels safe, supported, and celebrated. I’m also happy to assist with household tasks, meal prep, and transportation to keep family routines running smoothly. Families describe me as reliable, nurturing, and engaged. I would be honored to bring my experience, patience, and enthusiasm to your family and help your children thrive.
