My name is Makayla and I am 18 years old! I love sports and anything outdoors! I fell in love with kids during my middle school years! My mom was a stay at home mom, but during my middle school years she started nannying a 3 month old boy! I absolutely fell in love with helping my mom watch him! I have about 8 years of experience helping out my mom along with babysitting friends kids or younger cousins. I do have experience in special needs, particularly Tourette’s syndrome, OCD, ADD, ADH, sensory disorders as well as autism. My brother has severe OCD, Tourette’s syndrome and sensory disorders, along with 3 of my cousins so I know how to handle those kinds of situation extremely well from growing up with my brother and babysitting cousins. I also have a few cousins with Autism and have learned how to respond and handle difficult situations.

Hi! My name is Kristen - I'm 31 and live in Camp Hill, PA. I have a full-time job in healthcare, but I wanted to offer babysitting and pet-sitting services on nights and weekends. My husband and I purchased our first home recently and are always saving for new projects! I have passed the following clearances due to the nature of my job: 1. PA State Police Criminal Record Report; 2. Pennsylvania Department of Human Services Child Abuse History Clearance; 3. FBI Department of Human Services Background Report; 4. Substance Abuse (Drug) Testing. I volunteer in the NICU once a week as well! I am the oldest of three and helped take care of my younger sisters growing up. I was a nanny in the summer between high school and college, and have been a date-night sitter for children from 3 months old up to middle school age. I love to read, express creativity through art, and try new restaurants. I have a variety of pets, from a dachshund to a cat, turtle, bearded dragon, and leopard geckos!
