Meet Riley

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

Hi there! My name is Riley and I'm a musician and artist in Philadelphia studying Music Therapy! I have babysat kids in my neighborhood for about 4 years including kids from ages 3-8. In addition, I taught music in schools for grades K-3. Teaching in schools gave me incredible classroom management skills that lends itself to babysitting for multiple kids. I also have experience with children with disabilities and have taken developmental psychology courses. When I care for kids I love being as active as possible. I frame the day based off of the interests of the child and try to keep them as engaged as possible.
