Hi! I’m Nehemias. I’ve been caring for children since I was 13, starting with my younger brother since he was a baby—who’s now 7—and helping out with younger cousins and family friends as well. I’m now 20 and a rising junior at the University of Pennsylvania, where I work in education and tutoring. I genuinely love caring for kids and being someone they can feel safe, supported, and comfortable with. I’m open to homework help in all subjects, with a strong focus on math, which I’ve taught and tutored at many levels. I currently TA at a local middle school, lead small-group instruction, and mentor students in both academic and personal development. I’ve also supported high school students through college applications, coordinated summer education programs, and worked with younger children in one-on-one and group settings. I have CPR training and have experience staying calm and focused in emergency situations. In addition to helping save my two-year-old cousin using CPR, I’ve also helped another young child access emergency care and ER services after experiencing a life-threatening accident, making sure to communicate across language barriers and coordinate between adults and medical staff to ensure immediate support. I’m comfortable taking charge when needed and know how to communicate clearly across different teams and situations. I also speak Spanish fluently, and I’ve passed extensive background checks through my work in schools and mentorship programs. Whether it’s reading together, helping with homework, or providing a nurturing, structured environment, I aim to bring patience, responsibility, and care to every family I work with.

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 worked as a Child and Youth Program Assistant at Ramstein Air Force Base for a year, where I provided care, supervision, and developmental support for children of various ages. My responsibilities included leading activities tailored to different age groups, ensuring a safe and engaging environment, and maintaining positive communication with parents. Beyond my professional experience, I have a natural ability to connect with others, especially in caregiving roles. I’m patient, attentive, and adaptable, which allows me to meet the unique needs of children, seniors, or pets. My background in child development, combined with strong organizational skills and a nurturing personality, makes me a great caregiver. Additionally, I have experience caring for my own dog, ensuring she gets proper attention, exercise, and care. My time in the military also taught me discipline, responsibility, and crisis management—skills that translate well into caregiving roles.
