Being around animals brings me joy, and having the opportunity to take care of your dog, cat or other pet is something that I truly love. I'll take care of your fur baby as if it's my own, and I'll do everything possible to make sure that their time with me is super enjoyable! I'm experienced with both puppies, kittens and senior cats and dogs. I've given pets their insulin injection, and I'm able to give even the most stubborn pet their oral medication. In my spare time I enjoy biking, swimming and strength training.

I am a proud mom of two beautiful daughters who are now 22 and 20 years old. Raising them gave me so much hands-on experience with children of all ages, and I absolutely loved every stage. I also have professional experience working in daycare settings, especially with infants and toddlers. I've cared for babies from a very young age, handling feeding, naps, diapering, and all the daily routines with patience and care. In addition, I've had the opportunity to support children with special needs through activities tailored to their abilities, and I really enjoy creating fun, engaging play-based activities that help kids learn and grow—whether it's sensory play, arts and crafts, music, outdoor time, or simple developmental games. I'm reliable, nurturing, and energetic, and I treat every child as if they were my own. I'd love to chat more about how I can support your family! Looking forward to hearing from you,

Tara was prompt, took directions well and very pleasant. My kids really liked and enjoyed her.

Hi families! I am currently a commuting college student at Drexel living in Erdenheim and looking for more babysitting opportunities over the summer. I have in-person classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays until 2 pm so I am looking for work mainly on Mondays and Wednesdays as well as Fridays and occasional weekend hours. I have experience babysitting, working in a Spanish immersion preschool as an assistant teacher, and I recently completed an internship as a behavioral health technician working with kids with autism and other disabilities. I am currently studying psychology and my passion is making positive impacts in children's lives. I have experience with babies, toddlers, and school-age children. Please reach out if I seem like the right fit for your family! Looking forward to connecting!

Hello! I'm Jada, I'm a recently licensed nurse with BLS certification and 1.5 years of experience working with children and seniors in the nursing school clinical setting. I enjoy this population because I consistently learn something new everytime I'm with them. I'm a great communicator, problem-solver, and critical thinker and have been known to construct solutions quickly. I'm a great caregiver because I want to do the best I can to meet the needs of my clients by being present, engaged, and having fun!
