Hi! My name is Carolina 👋 Here's a little about me : I have more than 5 years of experience working with children of different ages. Since high school, I’ve been helping elementary school children with their homework and taking care of my neighbors’ kids. Later, I moved to the United States in 2022, and now I have experience caring for newborns up to children aged 12. I consider myself patient, kind and respectful. I enjoy doing crafts and practicing sports. I love creating a safe, fun, and structured environment where children can be happy and feel loved.
I’m a thoughtful, empathetic person with a deep appreciation for nurturing and care. Outside of my professional career, I’ve always had a natural fondness for children and families. I believe that caring for someone’s home or loved ones isn’t just a “job”; it’s a responsibility rooted in respect, trust, and understanding.
“Nadia is such an amazing and calm person. My children love her and always look forward to seeing her. She involves the children in different play activities with minimal to no screen time at all. We trust her with the kids and know that they’re in good hands. We are glad to have met her!”
Hi! My name is Saira. I have been a babysitter since I was 15 years old, so taking care of children has always been a big part of my life. I have experience caring for children from 3 months to 10 years old. I love creating fun and creative activities where children can learn, explore, and be themselves. I enjoy supporting them as they discover new things, encouraging their creativity and curiosity, while also helping them with their daily routines. Most importantly, I want every child to feel heard, valued, and confident as they grow. I am a patient, responsible, caring, and honest person. I am very organized and value clear and open communication. I also deeply respect each family’s parenting style and routines, and I am always happy to work together with parents to make sure their children feel safe, loved, and supported.
“Saira was on time and our 6-month-old and 3-year-old seemed immediately comfortable when she arrived and she jumped right into playing with them. She got our baby to sleep for the night and got our toddler ready for bed and read books with him before bed. At the end of the night our toddler went over to give her a big hug and told us he wanted to play with her again! ”

Hi, I’m Kamora! I’m a rising junior at Lincoln University of Pennsylvania with experience working with children as a gymnastics coach at The Little Gym. I’m patient, energetic, and reliable, and I love helping kids learn, play, and feel safe. I have experience working with children ages 3–12, and I’m comfortable managing routines, keeping kids engaged with fun and age appropriate activities, and creating a positive, structured environment. Safety is always my top priority, and I take pride in being dependable and attentive. I also enjoy active play, games, and helping kids stay engaged in a fun and supportive way. I’m available throughout the summer and open to both occasional babysitting and more consistent weekly schedules. I can also assist with light housekeeping, simple meal preparation, and maintaining a clean and organized space.
