Booked by 7 families in Gradyville, PA

Hi! My name is Kir, I recently moved to the area after graduating college with a bachelors in mathematics. I'm excited to help out with babysitting and household care. I have experience with kids anywhere in the 0-12 age range, and am happy to help out with getting homework and chores done. I enjoy spending screen-free time with kids, play and do developmentally appropriate activities to help them grow.I have been cooking for my family, including younger siblings, for a long time, and know well how to feed picky eaters. I do not drive, but can assist with getting to local extracurriculars and activities. I love dogs and cats, and can make sure all their needs are taken care of. I am also First Aid/CPR certified.

“Kir did a wonderful job. Recommended!”

Samantha $18 per hour for 1 child

Hello! Thank you for looking at my profile! As a child I was always the unpaid babysitter for my siblings and cousins. I was able to change diapers before I was even 10 so it comes naturally to take care and look after small kids. I’m very attentive and kind. I enjoy creative and fun activities! I currently take care of a family member as a caregiver for 3 years so that definitely emphasizes to my abilities to care, delegate and support others.

Brit $35 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Brit, an energetic, creative, and experienced caregiver with over 10 years of experience working with children of all ages, from newborns to teenagers! My love for working with kids started early, tutoring younger students in reading and math and babysitting throughout high school. In college, I worked as a Direct Support Professional for children with disabilities, and later spent several years nannying for families in Chicago. I'm outgoing, patient, playful, and a little silly! I love encouraging curiosity, creativity, learning, and adventure while creating a safe, supportive, and positive environment where kids can thrive. I'm also a great tutor, an excellent housekeeper, and happy to help keep busy households running smoothly. Beyond childcare, I have extensive experience pet sitting and house sitting around the world. I'm responsible, adaptable, dependable, and genuinely enjoy caring for people, pets, and homes. I bring lots of energy, warmth, and enthusiasm to everything I do—and I can't wait to meet you!

"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!"
