Nehemias 1 review
$20 per hour for 1 child

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.

“Nehemias has been helping with his little brother since he was a baby — feeding, playing, putting him to sleep, all that. He even teached him how to read. He’s really good with kids and super responsible. I never gotta worry when he’s watching them. Kids just feel safe around him. Honestly, he’s been such a help to me and any family would be lucky to have him.”

Tess $24 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Tess. I was born and raised in the Bay Area and have been babysitting for the past ten years. During the pandemic, I worked as a nanny for a pod of four children between the ages of four and eight. I enjoyed programming different crafts and games for the kids to keep busy! I have recently returned home after college, and I am excited to start babysitting again. Please reach out! I have a lot of availability in my schedule. Best, Tess

Ameerah $15 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Morton, PA

Hi! I'm a teen college student studying nursing with a strong passion for caregiving and working with children. I have experience working in a daycare where I helped supervise children, supported daily routines, and created a safe, positive environment. I also completed a nursing program at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP), where I gained hands-on exposure to patient care and learned professionalism, teamwork, and the importance of compassionate care. I am CPR certified, Stop the Bleed certified, and ServSafe certified, which has trained me in emergency response, safety, and maintaining clean environments. I will be in the Philadelphia and Upper Darby area from May-August and am also looking for jobs during my winter break. I will be in the East Stroudsburg area during the college academic year. I am responsible, reliable, and passionate about working in care-focused environments where I can support others and continue building my experience.

Mary $15 per hour for 1 child

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.
