$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Gladwyne, 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

Michael $15 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Michael. I've always enjoyed working with children and helping them learn and grow. I first started working with kids in high school, where I volunteered teaching Sunday school, and today I work as a substitute teacher, mainly providing support for students with special needs. My college coursework in psychology and neuroscience has given me a deeper understanding of child development and behavior, which I bring into my work. I'm patient, empathetic, and see the importance in creating a safe environment where children feel comfortable and supported. Whether it's helping with homework, playing games, keeping a routine, or just being a stable presence, I aim to meet each child's individual needs. I'm also a big animal lover and have recently owned two cats, so I'm happy to care for pets as well.

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
