Hi! My name is Isabella and I am a freshman honors student at the University of Pittsburgh on the Pre-Med track! I was born in DC and raised in Pittsburgh for half of my life. I absolutely adore kids of all ages! I have two cousins that I have looked after, and I am a very patient, caring, and responsible person. In addition, I am First on the Scene certified, which means I have emergency response training and know how to stay calm under pressure.

Andrew 1 review
$16 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Homestead, PA

Hi there, my name is Andrew! I am a 3rd year nursing student at the University of Pittsburgh who hopes to work as a neonatal or pediatric nurse. My expertise is particularly focused towards caring for newborns and infants. Children bring so much joy into our lives and safety is my upmost priority. I have 2 years of previous work experience as a babysitter as well as 1 year of inpatient hospital experience in the postpartum unit and newborn nursery at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. I am comfortable with nightshift work, twins, and medically complex infants/kids. As part of my nursing education I am trained in adult and senior care as well. As a requirement for my work I have been cleared by the Pennsylvania Department of Human Services for work with children. The Pennsylvania State Police have attested that I do not have a criminal record. I am certified by the American Heart Association for infant, child, and adult CPR and other life support & first aid techniques. I would be happy to provide these documents upon request. In my free time I enjoy knitting, watching TV with my cat, drawing, and reading. I am very crafty, so if your kid(s) love art or science, we will likely get along great! I have always been drawn to cats and dogs, but am willing to branch out and meet other animals! I grew up with dogs, had a 10 gallon fish tank, and now have a cat named Buttermilk! On Mondays and Wednesdays between 11:30am and 4:30pm I am a teaching assistant and researcher at Pitt and will not be available those hours. I offer sliding scale rates for low income or single parent households. I understand how difficult it can be to find a caretaker who fits your needs and who you trust with your family, so I am available for zoom or in person interview. It is my goal to match with a family who are looking for a reliable babysitter for their kids long term! I appreciate your consideration and hope to be in contact with you soon!

“We love Andrew! He is wonderful with our wild 3.5 yo girl. Always on time communicative and amazing at joining her in her world. Highly rec ”

$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 10 families in Homestead, PA

Hi Everyone, My name is Lisa and I have been a professional nanny in Pittsburgh for over 20 years. I have experience with children of all ages and diverse personalities. I am a professional, mature, responsible, reliable and trustworthy and compassionate, loving caregiver. My number 1 priority is the safety of your child or children. It is imperative to me for your children and or your child to feel happy and comfortable and respected when in my care. It is important to always keep the lines of communication between sitter and parents open, because it helps to keep everything running smoothly. I believe when I do my job you can do yours and give parents peace of mind, which is priceless. I work hard to have a joyful, healthy, efficient home environment all with a sense of humor. Last but definitely not least I adapt to each family's individuality, rules and way of life.

“We were in town for a weekend and Lisa watched our 6 and 9 year old. She was flexible with her schedule, and very accommodating for us. The kids loved her. I’m handing off it off to my 9 year old to finish the review: I think that she was very nice and l would recommend her. She gave out snacks and I thought it was really nice. Was so much funner than my brother”
