Hi! My name is Lia, and I’m a caring, dependable, and experienced babysitter based in Philadelphia. I’m fully CPR certified and hold all Pennsylvania Department of Education clearances required to work in schools. For the past five years, I’ve worked as a teacher aide, supporting children of different ages and learning styles — including those with special needs. This background has given me strong skills in patience, communication, and creating structured yet nurturing environments where kids can thrive. I love helping children feel safe and comfortable, whether it’s during bedtime routines, quiet play, or overnight care. Families appreciate that I bring the calm, reliability, and professionalism of a classroom setting into their home.

Hi families! I am currently a commuting college student at Drexel living in Erdenheim and looking for more babysitting opportunities. 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!
