I currently work as a preschool and PRE-K teacher and am up-to-date with my CPR, First-aid and fire safety. I have Multiple early childhood education trainings and am in college for an early childhood degree. I enjoy teaching a lot and love watching the next generation of kids grow!
Hi! I’m Valeria, I’m 26 years old. I’ve been living in Philadelphia for over 5 years, with a majority of that time being spent as a house mate for families with school age children. I now live independently, but continue to provide care on for those who request my help. Most of my childcare experience has been through family references, so this is my first time promoting myself online. In addition to living with families, I’ve also worked with children going through transitional periods in their family dynamic. I have an excellent understanding of providing not only the routine care and maintenance necessary to a child’s structural development, but also providing emotional support when it’s most needed. My skills include conducting consistent morning routines— getting kids up, making sure they’re dressed nicely for school/programs, making breakfast, and getting them out of the house on time. Evening and night routines have always followed the same structure. As someone who comes from a family of caretakers (my mom has been a nanny for almost 20 years, same as my aunt), I value the importance of a child’s wellbeing starting at the foundation of their care, and creating a stable environment where the family knows what to expect is the best way to ensure of that.
I’m a caring, patient, and responsible person who enjoys spending time with children. I love doing fun activities like drawing, crafts, and playing games. I’m dependable, friendly, and always focused on making children feel safe, happy, and comfortable.
Hello, my name is Samantha. I am a proud mother of three boys and currently work with children in a school setting. I have previous experience supporting children with special needs in a clinical environment, as well as working in childcare settings. Additionally, I have provided in-home care for elderly individuals. I have a strong passion for working with both children and the elderly, and I value the meaningful experiences and lessons I have gained through these roles.
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.

"Caitlin was awesome and jumped right in to chaperone four girls (10, 9, 8 and 6) at a family wedding (they were bridesmaids) and she was very helpful with the event as well as taking them home and putting them to bed."

"McKenna was great with our 3 year old son! She came prepared with a box of fun activities and handled playing, dinner, and bedtime seamlessly... and it was all at our hotel while we were in town for a wedding. Thank you McKenna!"
