Hi! My name is Bona. I moved to Philly from Portland and come from a large family so I’m very used to being around children. I have previously worked as an after school teacher, a tutor and nannied for a variety of families from all backgrounds. When babysitting I usually enjoy doing arts and crafts, playing games such as hide and seek or sardines and going on adventures if the weather permits. I enjoy reading, finding new shows and very terribly baking/ trying out new recipes. Looking forward to meeting you!
“Bona was a great communicator, reliable, friendly, and fun and sweet with our son. She made us feel comfortable and safe. Thank you!”
My name is Kate, and I am a 34-year-old elementary school teacher living in South Philly. I have my bachelor's and master's degrees in education, and I have been teaching for 12 years. I have worked with numerous grade levels (K, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 & 7th) in Pennsylvania and South Florida. I currently teach 2nd grade in South Philly. Beyond that, I was previously a babysitter for years while in college, a swim instructor and life guard, and I still hold my CPR/AED certification. I also have up-to-date PA Child Abuse clearances and FBI clearances due to working for the School District. My schedule has me home by 3:00 p.m. every day, and I would love to fill some time helping out some families in the area with any pet, house, or babysitting needs! I am also available to tutor, in addition to these services. In my "spare" time, I love to work out, spend time with my fur babies, and read, read, read! If you feel like I would be a good fit for your needs, I would love to schedule a time to meet up and see if we can work something out. I look forward to hearing from you!
“Kathryn was great! Very communicative and flexible. Our daughter had a blast and will definitely rehire! A+”

I have experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to teenagers, including those with ADHD and autism.

I'm bilingual in French and happy to incorporate it into activities or conversations! I can also assist with cooking, running errands, and light housekeeping. I look forward to meeting you and your family!
