"Amina came and helped us out when our babysitter canceled last minute. She was great with our kids. Even our 11 month old son who has stranger anxiety warmed up to her."

Hi families! I am currently a commuting college student at Drexel living in Erdenheim and looking for more babysitting opportunities over the summer. I have in-person classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays until 2 pm so I am looking for work mainly on Mondays and Wednesdays as well as Fridays and occasional weekend hours. 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!

I am a responsible and caring college student with years of experience working with children of all ages, from family members to friends children. I have spent the past two years taking care of a close friend’s daughter, giving me hands-on experience in providing attentive and nurturing care. I am patient, reliable, and enthusiastic, with a natural ability to connect with kids and create a fun, safe, and engaging environment for them. I am also organized, trustworthy, and attentive to the unique needs of each child. While I am allergic to dogs, I manage it effectively with medication, ensuring a safe and comfortable experience for every family. My experience, compassion, and dedication make me a dependable babysitter who children enjoy spending time with.

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.
