Hi! I'm Jocelyn, I have been caring for kids for about six years, I'm 20 years old and currently in my second semester of nursing school. I would love to continue with a family that would have a flexible schedule. I love to do crafts with the kiddos, and hopefully, they enjoy them too! I live in Kennedy Township, right next to Robinson Township, and go to CCAC on different days each semester. I do light housework and am also willing to drive kids to activities. I have a clean driving record, and a background check. I have all of my clearences and I am CPR/ BLS and First Aid certified by the Red Cross. Hope to hear from you soon!

Jocelyn was great. She even had a craft for the kids and played pretend well with them. I’ll hire her again!

Hi! My name is Grace and I’m a 23 year old Pitt graduate. I currently work full time as a marketing and events coordinator, but have a lot of free time to care for your family! I’ve been babysitting since I was 13 and have experience with kids of all ages. My sister has four kids that I watch frequently when I’m back home in Jersey. She has a 7 year old, 5 year old, 2 year old, and 5 month old. So I can change a diaper one second and be playing trucks the next. I also have experience tutoring if the kiddos need some help with homework! I’ve been living in the city for 6 years now, so I’m very comfortable driving if needed. As far as senior care, I frequently took care of my grandpa as he had Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s. He always told me I should work in a nursing home…but unfortunately that wasn’t really my first calling. I am an animal lover so happy to take care of pets and am also able to run any errands or do housework if needed. Some facts about me! I am originally from New Jersey but loved Pittsburgh so much that I decided to stay. I’m a huge Pitt fan and am very excited to cheer them on this year. I love crafting, playing tennis, and cooking! I look forward to working with you!

Grace showed up promptly, was very warm and friendly, and took excellent care of our kids. We will be working with her again.

$20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Olivia, a pediatric occupational therapist with years of experience supporting children with a wide range of medical complexities and special needs. I understand how hard it can be to find the right caregiver — someone who truly understands your child’s unique needs and can provide both fun and support. I offer babysitting services that are more than just supervision. I bring a calm, compassionate approach, and create a safe, engaging, and developmentally appropriate environment tailored to your child. My current work schedule allows for flexibility during some weekday afternoons, as well as evenings and occasional weekends. I’d love to work with your family to find a time that fits your needs.
