Booked by 1 family in Morton, PA

Greetings Families, My name is Nicola I am originally from the island of Jamaica. I am a certified teacher for over 20 years specializing in Reading and Writing instruction for Pre-K-8th grade. Being a teacher is often times also like being a second Mom or Aunty to the children I serve. It is humbling and a blessing. I love to travel, be in nature, music, art, cultures, literature and sports. I love to share my interests and experiences with children and learn from them as well. I enjoy being with children because they keep me youthful and enable me to continue to see thee world in new ways, and stay in touch with joy, hope, love and learning. You can rest assured that when your precious ones are in my care, "Every little thing is gonna be alright."

“Nicola was fantastic! She arrived on time and prepared with a couple fun activities for our toddler. Our daughter loved her right away. She was professional, enthusiastic, kind, calm, and upbeat. She handled dinner and bedtime with ease and grace. We feel so lucky to have found her!”

Shona $35 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Shona and I am a musician and nanny both of which I have been doing professionally for 20 years. I was a full time, live in nanny for all of 2020 and 2021, and have worked with many families the past 4 years ages 7 months-5 years. I have been working with, caring for and teaching kids of all ages since I was 13 years old. I have been a babysitter, a swim teacher, music teacher, full time nanny, not to mention auntie to all my friend's babies. I am more than happy to send references and answer any questions you might have for me. I'm open to part time work as well as occasional babysitting for date nights, and would prefer to be relatively close to Germantown where I live. I love animals, cooking and cleaning, playing games, reading and singing silly songs. I am a creative and energetic person who has always naturally understood children and how to communicate with them in a kind way while also maintaining respect on both ends. I think kids deserve respect just as much as we do and part of my calling is to help model that with the kids I care for. I greatly look forward to hearing from you!!

Please reach out if I seem like the right fit for your family! Looking forward to connecting!

Rivkah $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Rivkah, and I work as an assistant teacher at CTA. I am currently studying forensic psychology and am deeply passionate about the field of psychology. I take pride in my skills, which I believe will enable me to understand and effectively work with children. I am certified in BLS and have received training in adult, child, and infant emergency care. I work with students aged 3-4, but I have been involved in childcare for various ages since I was 12. I love and am great with all animals, although I am best when it comes to dogs. I am currently on summer break and available to assist with any needs you may have. While I am comfortable with a wide range of services, I excel particularly with younger kids. As a teacher, one of my main responsibilities is to create projects that help children develop their skills and learn to express themselves. My work has provided me with extensive experience in meeting the unique needs of each child and finding what works best for them. I hope I can be of assistance! :)
