My name is Jill Patel and I would love to be your next helper! I am a rising junior at the university of pittsburgh where I am majoring in neuroscience and child development. A little bit about me is that I love all kinds of animals, I can speak 4 languages fluently (English, Gujarati, Hindi, French), and I love the outdoors. I has lots of experience with kids since I was a nanny for a 2 year old and an 8 month old, and I have been a tennis coach for 4 years. I adore kids of all ages and love to connect with each of them. They bring a fresh perspective to everything and can brighten up any sad day. Working as a tennis coach with children as young as 3 and adults as old as 60, I have picked up a lot of tips and tricks when it comes to working and engaging with children. I believe that my job has really given me an insight on what goes on their little minds and how I can form a relationship with them. So I’ve encountered any and all situations with kids from ad young as infants and up to high schoolers. I like to approach with a more hands-on approach regarding activities, with limited screen time. I always have lots of games, stories, educative learning, and imagery play ready to go!

Jill is phenomenal. She is very attentive to my rambunctious kindergartner, respectful and above all follows through on what she says she will do, even if it’s not super convenient for her. She is kind, intelligent and personable. I definitely recommend her and plan on keeping her on speed dial.

Hi! My name is Michelle. I come from a very large and involved family and have been caring for both children and seniors for most of my life. I enjoy caring for others and believe in a strong support system at home. I prefer to get out and allow kids to learn and experience life first hand through adventures and activities rather than through a screen all of the time. I am college educated, CPR /First Aid Certified and look forward to getting to know you, your family, and how I can make life simpler for you. Please feel free to contact me with any questions. Thank you for your time and have a great day!!

Michelle was a great help to our family! She was extremely kind and truly loved my kids. She was very good at sending updates during the day especially when she had to pick up/drop off the kids. I knew they were safe in her care :)

Hello, I’m Linda and I'm 50 years old & a cancer survivor. I have worked as a nanny for over 25 years also including babysitting from my teens and on. I enjoy crafts, rolling around in the grass, looking for bugs, chalking on the sidewalks along w/ trips to parks, museums, swim & music classes, and Library trips for story time. I have also been in the financial industry for twenty nine years but have never lost the love of caring for children. At this time in my life my husband has convinced me to follow what I love. This would be working with children full time. I serve at my church in the infant & two year old room as a lead teacher. I also have worked at Kinder-care & Just Plane Kids. Since I was young I gravitated towards children and my love to be around them as well as caring for them has never changed. I've worked in the financial Industry for 29 years and helped clients with opening accounts to planning their retirement plans. I've opened up 529 Plans for their children and seen them grow up to use these accounts. So in my years of helping families I still benefited helping children. When dealing with clients with children and helping them during tantrums or keeping them busy as their parents review documents. Raising my niece along with working at KinderCare and Just plane Kids for a total of five years. In those years I rotated between the infant room and two year old room. I have experience hands on in facilities but over 20 years of raising and loving other families children. I would love to have the opportunity to meet you and speak to you openly about my experiences and how much I would love to help you care for your children. Thank you for your time, Linda M Arnold Velarde

I have been in the field of Child Care and Early Childhood Education for over 15 years. After graduating from Northern Illinois University with a Bachelor's Degree in Child Development, I began my career as an Early Childhood Educator. Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to work with children ranging in age from 3 months to 12 years. Working with children brings me so much joy. I’m passionate about early childhood education and truly believe the early years are the most important for sparking a lifelong love of learning, creativity, exploration, and play. I am also a proud mom of two wonderful children, ages 7 and 4. I’m currently seeking a position with a family who would welcome my 4-year-old to accompany me. She is a playful, kind, and sociable little girl who loves being around other children. With my professional experience as an educator and my personal experience as a mother, I offer a nurturing, dependable, and engaging environment for the children in my care. I strive to ensure your child always feels safe, respected, and loved while supporting their growth and development every step of the way. If you feel I could be a good fit for your family, I would love the opportunity to speak with you further. I am seeking a part time position, with full day availability Tuesdays/Thursdays.

With over 25 years of childcare experience, I truly love helping children learn, grow, and thrive. I have cared for children from newborns through teenagers and have experience supporting every stage of development. I am dependable, caring, patient, and looking to build a long-term relationship with a family. My most recent childcare position lasted 14 years, which reflects the commitment and trust I bring to the families I work with. I have my own reliable vehicle and can help with school and activity drop-offs and pickups. I’m also happy to assist with child-related household tasks such as children’s laundry, lunch preparation, organizing, and tidying up, as well as occasional family errands. I especially enjoy helping little ones reach important milestones, including potty training, self-feeding, establishing nap routines, and developing communication skills. I believe children thrive when they have a balance of structure, learning, play, and fun. I enjoy taking children to age-appropriate activities such as libraries, museums, parks, and other local outings to keep their days active and engaging. I’m looking for a family where I can become a trusted and dependable part of their support system. I am available to start immediately and would love the opportunity to get to know your family.

We were so lucky to have Rasa care for our children. She became someone we trusted completely. She was dependable, caring, and always willing to help wherever she was needed. She didn't just watch our kids—she really got to know them. She took them to activities, parks, libraries, and museums, and made sure they were engaged and having fun. Having someone care for your children is a huge decision, and we always had complete peace of mind knowing they were with her. She was incredibly reliable and I would highly recommend her to anyone.

I’m a reliable, nurturing, and dedicated nanny with over 10 years of hands-on childcare experience. I’ve worked with children of all ages, including infants, and truly love creating a safe, engaging, and loving environment where kids can grow and feel understood. I take pride in making everyday moments special—whether that’s planning fun outdoor activities, crafts, or simply being present and attentive to each child’s unique needs. My current long-term position is coming to an end as the youngest child is starting kindergarten, and I’m now looking for a full-time summer role with the hope of continuing into a long-term position with the right family. I value strong communication, mutual respect, and becoming a supportive, dependable part of a family’s daily life. I love being outside, staying active, and encouraging creativity and curiosity in children. I can also provide strong references from families I’ve worked closely with over the years. I’m reliable, nurturing, and genuinely love being around kids. Whether it’s arts and crafts, outdoor adventures, or playdates, I try to make the most out of each experience. I’m also comfortable with light housekeeping related to the kids, and managing routines/activities. If you’re looking for someone dependable and experienced to jump in a few days a week this summer, I’d love to connect!!! ☺️☀️
