Hi! My name is Jordan, and I’m 26 years old. I’ve grown up around childcare my whole life, so it's fitting that it is becoming my career. I have my own vehicle, I can cook and bake pretty well, and arts and crafts is a happy hobby of mine. I’m an athlete, so I love going out and playing. Babysitting is awesome, and I want to leave every kid with a good moment, time, or even memory. Currently I have about four part time families I am working with, and I am looking to fill in the gaps. I can be here for a longer commitment, or a one day event. Either way, I would love to hear from you! Please reach out to connect!

Introducing In Karen's Kare: Since I started babysitting at thirteen years-old, I quickly realized the gift I have with caregiving. I have experience working with toddlers, school aged children, as well as, autistic children in my everyday work as a Behavioral Health Technician. Not only am I able to provide a warm and nurturing environment, I am able to do provide transportation, arts and crafts, tutoring/homework help, and household chores. Since I’m currently a full-time graduate student, I am looking for a flexible family that will need occasional help during the early mornings, Friday night dates, and/or on the weekends. I look forward to chatting with you about your needs and wants in your ideal babysitter!

I am currently working as a Child Outpatient Therapist, looking for a part-time nannying job and weekend babysitting. I have all necessary clearances available, and vaccines (COVID and Flu). For two years (September 2020-August 2022) I was a full-time, live-in nanny for two children ages 1-5 in Washington, DC. I had a great relationship with the family and loved working with the children. I have been babysitting/nannying since the age of 14 and have experience with children of all ages (infant-adolescent). I'm primarily working after school hours (afternoons and nights), so am looking for a part-time position in the mornings (available 7am-11am). I live in the Fishtown area and I have a car for transportation, but I am preferably looking for a position in the city. I absolutely love working with children and am a very flexible person. Looking to find the perfect fit! Looking for occasional weeknight and weekend-night babysitting jobs in the Philadelphia area! Please reach out with any questions or interest :)

Hi! My Name is Marie. I have over twenty years childcare experience, and am thirty nine years old. I love taking care of children of all ages and interacting with them, assisting them with using manners, and also love helping school-age children with homework. In addition I truly love caring for infants, as it is amazing to watch how their personalities expand on a daily basis! I have extensive training in the recognition, as well as treatment of life threatening injuries and illnesses in infants, children, and adults. I have wonderful references to give during an interview. I do not post my references on the internet because I would prefer to not have them receiving many phone calls before I even meet a family as a courtesy to them as it became problematic before. I am able to bring all certifications with me during an interview, and will also provide my references' contact information. I also have current clear background checks from the FBI (with fingerprints) and the state of Pennsylvania, and have passed the requirements of Pennsylvania to obtain a child abuse history clearance in order to be approved to work around children in a school setting. As far as discipline in a caregiver capacity goes I believe in time-outs, or time-outs for toys. I also strongly believe in positive reinforcement (sticker chart with prize at end of week, pick of dinner or activity etc) I like to try and mimic the parents' way of doing things as best as possible to keep structure in childrens lives, and also try and cater to the activities the specific child likes most (after any room-cleaning/homework if any they’re required to do is done). I am a former critical care medic so have extensive CPR and first aide training and experience. I have a 13 year old son in 8th grade, a 7 year old daughter in second grade and am a stay at home mom. I am highly involved in my kids schools as a teacher aide as needed. I am currently looking for occasional daytime or date night positions **ineligibility for SC enhanced background badge was due to a non-moving traffic citation. I have all other clear federal and state background checks I can provide**

Hi, my name is Amber Fuller. I just recently finished my bachelors this spring and obtained a degree in Criminal Justice and I also finished my paralegal certificate in 2022. I became a babysitter because I realized how much I love children! I was ten years old when I obtained my first big girl job which was a mother’s helper! I learned how to take care of little children and that is where I learned how to change a diaper! My second and third job was being a camp counselor and a referee! My next job was working at an amusement park called Sesame Place where I was a ride hostess! I learned how to control the rides and had to take children's height measurement! My recent job was Denny’s. I was a hostess and a server! I have my First Aid and CPR certificate! Please feel free to ask me any questions you might have! Thank you! My phone number is (215) 630-1229.

Hi, I'm Alyssa! To get to know a little about me I am located in Yardley PA, and I am currently a part-time student. Some things I love are spending time outdoors, being with family, and I am a huge animal lover! I am an aunt of four amazing and adorable toddlers, ages 12 months to 5 years, and I absolutely love spending my time with them; They make my life complete! I have plenty of experience babysitting them on their parents' date nights, or early busy mornings, either way we always have a blast! Truly, I have always looked forward to being a mother myself but for now, being the best aunt as possible is my goal! I have a lot of extra love and joy to give when I am not with my niece or nephews, and would love to help out anyone who is in need of a babysitter for children, or a sitter for pets! Feel free to send me a message anytime with any questions regarding my availability or any concerns at all! I look forward to hearing from you!

I am an experienced, and passionate nanny with a flair for arts and crafts. I love facilitating a passion for the arts with children. As a nanny and babysitter I excel in the general care of the children by maintaining a safe and healthy environment. I strive to create a positive childcare environment by preparing arts and crafts activities, playing games, singing songs, avoiding conflict situations and nurturing self-esteem to help children discover what they are passionate about. I enjoy spending time outdoors and nurturing a compassion in children for nature and all living creatures. My last nanny position, which spanned 2 years, I provided exceptional care for two children beginning at the ages of 3 and 6. During my time with them I successfully scheduled and managed the children’s activities (including pick-ups and drop-offs to school, after-school activities, play-dates, etc.), prepared healthy meals and snacks, assisted in homework and encouraged learning and creativity outside of classroom through crafting, creating, music-making and playing games. I also worked as a camp counselor at a Philadelphia neighborhood Arts Enrichment Camp, where I developed art lessons and activities for groups of children ages 4-7. The single most important thing I learned during this summer was that while teaching art and fostering art appreciation was important to me, I realized that striving to build character, self-esteem and self-worth in the campers was even more important and gratifying. I just returned to Philadelphia from a 7-month trip exploring beautiful areas of the West coast and I feel endlessly inspired. I love adventure, new experiences and will creatively find the best way to introduce, support and guide your children to discover their own love of learning, exploring, creativity, imagination and life.

Hello! My name is Rahimah, I am a dedicated and experienced babysitter.

I have 7 years of childcare experience 3 of which is in infant care. I look forward to meeting your family and providing exceptional care for your little ones!
