Hi everyone! My name is Hanna, I’m 18, and I’m new to the area. My fiancé travels for work, so my schedule is pretty flexible, and I’m hoping to connect with a family who needs a babysitter on an as-needed basis while I’m in town. I’ve worked with kids since I was younger, and I spent over 3 years at Idlewild & SoakZone in Ligonier, PA as Daniel Tiger characters and more — most of the time out of costume, helping children and families have the best experience possible. I truly love working with kids and creating a fun, safe, and welcoming environment. We’re also working on settling in and moving into a home here in the next few months, so any opportunities are truly appreciated. I’d love to help out however I can! 😊
My name is Josh and I offer pet care services. I have cared for many different breeds of dogs. I have a reliable vehicle and I am flexible to your pet needs from walking, care while you are at work or care when you are away!
Hello! My name is Nancy and I am 27 years old. I am originally from Pittsburgh, PA. I graduated from Slippery Rock University in 2020 with a bachelor's in Early Childhood/Special Education with a minor in Leadership. With over 10 years of experience in early child care, I believe I am a valuable asset to the sitter community. I have worked at summer camps, schools, daycares, and so much more! I am so passionate about working with young kiddos and can assure that your little one will be in good hands. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out.
Hello, families! 😊 I’m Layiah, a 21-year-old high school graduate who plans to attend college in the future. I have 1–2 years of experience caring for infants, toddlers, and school-age children. My top priority is making sure every child feels safe, loved, and well cared for. 🩷 I treat every child with patience, kindness, and attention, and I’d love the opportunity to help your family! 👶✨
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 ”
