meg $20 per hour for 1 child

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! :)

Booked by 1 family in Berlin, NJ

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”

My first babysitting job was when I was 13 years old. Now I care for my own 2 children, a boy and girl so I can play ball and dress up! I work as a Payroll Specialist FT. As a former school district employee, children's safety and education are important to me. I'm an active volunteer for back to school and related events.
