I’m one of ten children and I have twenty-two nieces and nephews so I’ve been watching children since I can remember. For the past eight years I have been watching three girls who I adore. But they're all in school now so looking for another family to help out!

Megan W., Babysitter in Gettysburg, PA 17325 with 6 years of paid experience

At the age of 14, my ADVENTURE of babysitting began. Living in a gated-community, I drove my bike 10 minutes away to a families home in which I would get their 7 year old off the bus and ‘play’ (I viewed babysitting as something fun to do) with him for a few hours. Since then, I have created many more adventures with numerous families and kiddos of all ages! From building Lego sets, finding arts & crafts ideas, helping parents and kiddos through the horrors of online schooling during COVID-19, going from reading picture books-to-chapter books, being able to see these young future leaders grow; all while I am growing and learning more myself! I completed my Associates Degree - Associates in Science at Harrisburg Community College in 2021. After completing over 70 early education credits, I then transferred to Shippensburg University. I am going into my final semester of my school career (well where I’m the one attending… for now!). In Fall of 2023, I will be starting my semester of student teaching, very exciting! I will be graduating from Shippensburg with a Bachelor’s degree in Early Education PreK-4. I then plan on becoming a full-time sub at a local school district to get even more experience and education in the real-world! I hope to teach either 2 or 3 grade for a few years and eventually resume my studies at Ship for my Masters Degree in Special Education!

Hridaya K., Babysitter in Gettysburg, PA 17325 with 2 years of paid experience

I’ve always had a natural connection with kids, which really grew during high school when I was part of a teaching program where I got hands on experience working with little children . That’s where I discovered how much I enjoy helping children learn, grow, and feel supported. Since then, I’ve babysat for neighbors, family friends. I’m the kind of sitter who gets down on the floor to build Legos, reads the same book three times if asked, and makes sure everyone feels safe and heard. I also have basic first aid training and a calm, patient approach when things get hectic. I love being someone families can count on and someone kids actually look forward to seeing!

I am a trustworthy babysitter with seven years of experience. I love children and always have! I am currently going to school for my degree in Elementary and Special Education. I will be involved in fun activities with your children, including reading, crafts, playing sports, or whatever your children love to do. I also like cooking and I am comfortable preparing healthy snacks and/or meals for your children. I enjoy light housework, such as doing dishes, vacuuming, etc. I love dogs and other pets, too. I have my own transportation, so I am able to take trips with your children to the library, park, or anywhere else we need or want to go. I have experience with caring for 4 children at a time. I have babysat for infants as well as middle schoolers and children with disabilities, such as Autism. I took child development in high school and taught in the preschool for three years. Also, I interned in a second grade classroom my senior year of high school, a first grade classroom in the fall of 2013, and another second grade classroom this past spring of 2014. Additionally, I teach Sunday School at my church and have taught Vacation Bible School for three years.

Jenna H., Babysitter in Gettysburg, PA 17325 with 12 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Jenna Hovet. I am 22 years old. I absolutely love babysitting. I have done both nannying and babysitting, plus I worked at a daycare in High school. Throughout Covid I helped tutor an elementary aged student. I have had weekly jobs, random date night jobs, and overnights! I want kids to feel loved, seen, and heard. I value the uniqueness in each child. I love to have fun and I am super creative. I am capable and I am a fast learner. I’m happy to cook, clean, do laundry, plan activities, and basically anything that involves watching kids. I’m happy to meet pets and love them too!! I have many references from babysitting and nannying. I’m happy to provide names and numbers! I just recently moved to Pennsylvania from Oregon. I can’t wait to make more babysitting connections. I have been trained in CPR and first aid and am going to get my certification renewed ASAP.

I have been babysitting a lot these last couple of months and it’s been a joy! I love getting to see children grow and develop, as well as strengthen my own skills as a future mother. I love seeing their personalities grow and doing what I can to help them. I’ve been babysitting a little girl with Down syndrome and have watched my toddler nieces and nephew before. I know a bit about first aid and cpr though I don’t have a lot of experience. I do have experience with stressful situations and can act accordingly.

I have been babysitting for multiple families for 2 years. I am experienced working with children ages 6 months- 5 years old. I have worked with parents who stay in the house while I watch the children (allowing them to work or do chores, etc.), and while parents are out (date nights, errands, etc.). I am comfortable with longer hours as well as bed-time shifts. My favorite things to do with my current families are reading books, playing games outside, and doing origami and crafts!
