Ava $16 per hour for 1 child

My name is Ava, and I am an 18-year-old caregiver with experience in babysitting, pet sitting, and house sitting. I have approximately four years of hands-on experience caring for children and over eight years of experience working with animals. I am reliable, responsible, and dedicated to creating a safe, clean, and positive environment for families and pets. I have three to four years of experience caring for toddlers and grade-school children. While my experience with infants is limited, I am eager and willing to learn. I am comfortable assisting with daily routines such as getting children ready for school or bed, preparing basic meals, helping with homework, and maintaining schedules. I enjoy engaging children through activities like coloring, watching shows, playing games, and taking them to parks or fun outings. I also have my own car, allowing me to safely transport children to and from school or activities when needed. Additionally, I am certified in CPR, First Aid, and AED. In terms of pet care, I have experience with a wide range of animals, including dogs of all sizes and breeds—from Cane Corsos to Yorkies—as well as reptiles and small animals. My services include feeding, walking, playing, basic training, cage cleaning, and general care. I have no allergies and am comfortable caring for long-haired animals and pets of any size. For household support, I offer cleaning, tidying, laundry, organizing, plant care, cooking basic meals, and running errands. I can also provide my own cleaning supplies if required. I take pride in being dependable, adaptable, and attentive to the unique needs of each household.

Booked by 1 family in Merion Station, PA

Hi, my name is Sarah and I'm a first year graduate student at Penn studying public health. I am offering child care for all ages and household services. I have babysat for infants and children ages 3-6 since I was 20 and have also gained experience with a wide age range of children through opportunities with my church as a Sunday school teacher, nursery volunteer, and elementary school volunteer. I've also had paid experience caring for groups of 5-10 children with another sitter (also through church). I'm also CPR certified and have received several trainings on basic first aid, Heimlich, and CPR. I don't have a car in Philly but do have a driver's license and am also comfortable taking transit or walking with kids as needed. I've also been responsible in the past for leading games, crafts, and giving homework help. I also love getting active with kids and spending time outdoors. I'm also more than happy to provide help with household tasks and can cook, clean, do laundry, and run errands. I'm also comfortable with any pets and have experience caring for both cats and dogs.

Hallie $22 per hour for 1 child

I have ten years of experience working as a childcare provider and educator. I have worked as a preschool teacher at a montessori school, full time nanny, special needs caretaker, dance teacher, personal assistant, dog sitter, camp counselor, and tutor. I have experience working with infants through adults. My approach as a nanny is to nurture each child’s personal development, foster creativity and learning, and most importantly to ensure health and safety. I genuinely love working with children and I do my best to meet each family’s individual needs.
