I can also send my references and letters of recommendation if needed. ‼️Disclaimers: •I am a local babysitter in my area and I don’t drive therefore, anything over 3 miles from the Overbrook Area will be a $30 transportation fee per every 3mi ! :) •My babysitting hour minimum is 5 hours • I can babysit overnight (please contact me to discuss rates, schedules, etc) Please check out my reach-out if interested!

Hi my Name is Siena and I am college student. I have always babysat or hung out with little kids. Being that I grew up around a lot of little ones, it is something that I love to do. I am interested in a job for after classes during the week, something which I enjoy and hopefully the kids will too!
Hello! I'm Jada, I'm a recently licensed nurse with BLS certification and 1.5 years of experience working with children and seniors in the nursing school clinical setting. I enjoy this population because I consistently learn something new everytime I'm with them. I'm a great communicator, problem-solver, and critical thinker and have been known to construct solutions quickly. I'm a great caregiver because I want to do the best I can to meet the needs of my clients by being present, engaged, and having fun!
Hey! Nice to meet you :) My name is Ronell. I am from The Netherlands and I speak Dutch, English is my second language. After 2 years of being an au pair I will be moving back to my boyfriend in Philadelphia in march. Therefore I am looking for a part- time job. I come from a big family, where I would babysit my nephews occasionally. In America I have been living with 2 lovely families in Philadelphia and San Francisco. With kids aged between 7 months old to 7 years old. I consider my self active, creative, patient, observant and caring. A master in building forts, the best in hide and seek and I love doing arts and crafts. All while we listen to The Eagles and Bob Marley. I hope to meet you soon :)
Hello! I have worked with families with newborns to preteens and as an educator with students from 2nd grade to 12th grade over the past 9 years. I’ve created steam and art programs for all ages, from toddlers to teenagers, that engage a diversity of learners. I’m especially interested in organizing non-screen related activities. Currently I am an artist with flexible hours. I'm available for household services, as well. I love cooking, art and the outdoors! Note: any shift over 8 hours will have an additional overtime fee (multi-day commitments excluded)
