Hi families! I am currently a commuting college student at Drexel living in Erdenheim and looking for more babysitting opportunities. 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!
Being around animals brings me joy, and having the opportunity to take care of your dog, cat or other pet is something that I truly love. I'll take care of your fur baby as if it's my own, and I'll do everything possible to make sure that their time with me is super enjoyable! I'm experienced with both puppies, kittens and senior cats and dogs. I've given pets their insulin injection, and I'm able to give even the most stubborn pet their oral medication. In my spare time I enjoy biking, swimming and strength training.
Hi! My name is Meg and I am an artist living in the Mount Airy area. I just graduated from the University of the Arts with a concentration in Printmaking and Textiles. I am here to offer childcare, pet care, and house care services. I have a lot of experience working with and taking care of children, including toddlers and infants. I have been babysitting since I was 15, but I am also an older sister, and an older cousin to some amazing kids! I am ALSO an art teacher to kids ages 7-12 years old! I love teaching kids about art, letting their mind explore and seeing their creations. It is so interesting and special! I have been a trusted dog walker and house sitter for the last 3 or so years as well. I love animals and am comfortable around dogs, cats, and other pets! Here is a list of some smaller but important things I have done and feel comfortable doing so! -driving the kiddos to and from school or to activities -making snacks/ cooking/ preparing meals -arts and crafts/ games! -homework help -bedtime/ bath time routines -walks/ playground trips! -housekeeping (laundry, cleaning, running errands, plant/ garden care) -over nights Hope to be in touch! :)
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!”
Greetings Families, My name is Nicola I am originally from the island of Jamaica. I am a certified teacher for over 20 years specializing in Reading and Writing instruction for Pre-K-8th grade. Being a teacher is often times also like being a second Mom or Aunty to the children I serve. It is humbling and a blessing. I love to travel, be in nature, music, art, cultures, literature and sports. I love to share my interests and experiences with children and learn from them as well. I enjoy being with children because they keep me youthful and enable me to continue to see thee world in new ways, and stay in touch with joy, hope, love and learning. You can rest assured that when your precious ones are in my care, "Every little thing is gonna be alright."
“Nicola was fantastic! She arrived on time and prepared with a couple fun activities for our toddler. Our daughter loved her right away. She was professional, enthusiastic, kind, calm, and upbeat. She handled dinner and bedtime with ease and grace. We feel so lucky to have found her!”

"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!"
