Booked by 26 families in Marlton, NJ

Hello parents, families and those seeking help in the NJ area! I’m a New Jersey–based sitter available up to 4 hours a day, 2–3 days a week. I offer gentle, attentive care for infants through age 3, light pet care for pets that don’t need a lot of physical activity, and limited senior support like rides to doctor appointments or quick drop-in visits for medication reminders and light mobility exercises. I focus on calm, low-stress care so I can show up fully and reliably. If this sounds like a good fit, I’d love to connect!

Booked by 7 families in Marlton, NJ

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+”

Skylah $19 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Skylah, and I’m a 22 year old sitter with a patient, optimistic, friendly, and reliable personality. I offer babysitting, pet sitting, and house sitting services, and I truly enjoy helping people feel comfortable and supported while they’re away from home. When it comes to childcare, I have experience working with kids ages 1 to 13, including children with special needs. I love creating a fun and calm environment, and some of my favorite activities with kids include doing crafts, working on puzzles, going to the park, and listening to music together. I’m also happy to help with light household tasks if needed to keep things running smoothly. In addition to childcare, I also provide pet care services. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and rabbits, and I’m comfortable with large animals and pets that shed. Whether it’s feeding, walking, cleaning up, or simply spending time playing with them, I always aim to give pets the same love and attention they’d get from their owners. If you’re looking for someone responsible, kind, and genuinely passionate about caring for others whether it’s your children, pets, or home, I’d love to connect and see how I can help!
