Hi! I’m Allie! I'm a caring, responsible, and energetic babysitter who truly loves working with kids. I enjoy being a sitter because I love building connections with children, helping them learn, and making their days a little brighter. I’m patient, creative, and always bring a positive attitude to every family I work with. I have several years of experience babysitting children of all ages, from infants to school-aged kids. I’ve also worked in fast-paced, people-focused roles like serving and childcare volunteering, which taught me how to stay calm under pressure, multitask, and communicate clearly. I make sure every child feels safe, supported, and engaged. Whether we’re doing crafts, playing outside, or winding down for bedtime. In terms of skills, I’m reliable, organized, and attentive. I’m trained in basic first aid, comfortable following routines, preparing simple meals, helping with homework, and managing multiple children at once. I’m also great with pets and flexible when families need extra help. Above all, I treat every child with kindness, respect, and care, just like I would want someone to treat my own family. I’d love to support your family and give you peace of mind knowing your kids are in good hands!

Hi families! My name is Ruthza (Rue), and I’m a 4th-year Psychology major at Penn State. I’ve always loved working with kids, and I bring both experience and enthusiasm to every babysitting job. I first started caring for little ones by volunteering for three years in my church’s nursery with children ages 1–5. Since then, I’ve had the opportunity to work with two wonderful families back home over the past two summers, as well as helping out family and friends whenever needed. I’ve consistently been the “go-to” babysitter and have received great feedback for being dependable, caring, and attentive. In addition to keeping kids engaged and safe, I can also help with homework, light housekeeping, meal prep, and organizing daily routines. Whether it’s planning fun activities, helping with schoolwork, or just being a reliable extra set of hands, I enjoy supporting families and making things easier at home. Babysitting is more than just a job for me—it’s something I truly love. Every child has their own personality, curiosity, and way of seeing the world, and I enjoy being part of their growth and development. I find joy in creating a safe, positive, and fun environment where kids can learn, play, and thrive. Feel free to contact me with any questions. I look forward to meeting your family and being someone you can count on!
