Shea O., Babysitter in Effort, PA 18330 with 8 years of paid experience

Hello my name is Shea. I am currently working full time as an occupational therapist (7-3:30; M-F). I worked at a child care center called The Cuddle Zone Learning Center located in Allentown for a little over 4 years where I was an assistant teacher for the school age program for 2 years and lead teacher for the infant room for 2 years. In Pittsburgh, where I attended undergrad, I worked at another child care center called the Children's Center of Pittsburgh. At this center I worked with children aged from 3 months to 2 years. I also supervised children at a local church in Pittsburgh while their parents attended the service. I have my clearances, FBI fingerprints, CPR, first aid, and completed trainings in mandated reporting, supervision, etc.

Shea is wonderful to work with. Our kids (6, 3, and 1) light up when she walks through the door. She plays, cooks, and listens. I highly recommend her as a sitter.

Isabella B., Babysitter in Effort, PA 18330 with 8 years of paid experience

I love being a sitter because I have always had a genuine passion for children. Bonding and connecting with kids of all ages gives me a sense of fulfillment. I have over 7 years of paid babysitting experience with children ranging from infant to pre-teens. I also worked as a teachers assistant in a daycare and in a karate school, helping with kids’ classes. Currently, I’m studying psychology in hopes of becoming a counselor deepening my understanding of child development. I am CPR and First Aid certified, so I always prioritize safety while ensuring kids have fun and feel cared for.

Hi! I’m a 19-year-old second-year accounting student with a strong passion for childcare and helping others. I have 3 years of experience working as a lifeguard, where I developed responsibility, attentiveness, and strong safety skills. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, so your child’s safety is always my top priority. I’m very involved in my community and love staying active—I’m also a cheerleader, so I bring a fun, energetic, and positive attitude to everything I do. I truly enjoy working with children, especially babies, and I’m patient, caring, and attentive to each child’s individual needs. I also have my own car for reliable transportation and am happy to help with light tasks, playtime, and creating a safe, engaging environment. I’d love the opportunity to support your family!

Jaelynn really has such skills in taking care of children. She has great intuition with infants-regularly changing them, feeding them, and providing attention to their needs. She is very patient with my little guy and she shows so much initiative. She does more than what I ask and her kindness just blows me away. I trust her with my little guy and know that he is in safe hands with her. If we could have 1,000 Jaelynn’s as babysitters, that would be a perfect world! Hiring Jaelynn is a non-negotiable for me! She is my go-to sitter always!

Jade S., Babysitter in Effort, PA 18330 with 2 years of paid experience

I am a rising senior at the University of Scranton majoring in Physiology/Philosophy. I have a passion in pursing healthcare and am currently applying to PA school. I have 2 years of experience babysitting a 8 and 12 year old, as well as extensive experience caring for children of all ages within my own family. While I currently work part-time in the ER as a medical scribe, I have much availability throughout my summer break to babysit as I am needed, and am more than willing to help out once school starts, particularly in the early mornings/evenings within the week and the weekends. As a French tutor at my university, as well as a current mentor for a science internship, I am very skilled with helping children with homework. I am CPR/First-Aid trained and I do have a car. Please contact me if you have any questions/concerns. I look forward to hearing back from you soon.
