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!”
Francesca $18 per hour for 1 child
I am a student at the University of Pennsylvania and I love working with children and pets! I have about 2 years of babysitting experience, working with children (infants - 10 years old). My responsibilities have included preparing food, reading to kids, putting them to sleep, cleaning, etc. I am fluent in Spanish and English. I am also conversational in German, Mandarin Chinese, and French. I am CPR certified. I have also volunteered in pet shelters for about 2 years. I hope to share my experience and passion with others!
Olivia $16 per hour for 1 child
Hi! My name is Olivia and I would absolutely love to babysit for your family! I have nine nieces and nephews I've helped my sisters care for since I was 10, so I have lots of experience and love kids more than anything. For example, I spent the first part of the COVID pandemic with my sister helping her raise her two newborn twins (while also caring for two older boys!) I received my undergraduate degree in Applied Exercise Science at the University of Michigan in 2023. I am currently earning my master's and teaching certification from IUP to become a K-12 health and PE teacher here in Philly! Multiple families have rehired me for years and I've had the privilege of watching their kids grow from newborns to kindergartners and beyond! I dogsit as well and am CPR/First Aid certified and fully vaccinated. If you're curious, I have a five-star rating on the babysitting app Bambino with 24 reviews. I love caring for children and look forward to doing so here in Philly!
