I am currently a student at Moravian University studying nursing! I am the oldest child of 4! I grew up always looking after them, so babysitting is something I’ve naturally grown to love! I have been officially babysitting for 4 years now, ranging from newborns to early middle schoolers! I have many skills ranging from adaptability, patience, and time management. I believe in making babysitting more than a job, I view it as more of a relationship. I strive to connect with the children on a personal level. I do have a valid drivers license and vehicle.

I lived in Florida from 2015-2020 I am originally from PA and we returned back here in 2020; I graduated with three degrees all in a science related field back in 2015. I started babysitting mostly my sister starting when I was about twelve and she was five. Once I started college I worked in a childcare center for about a year, I worked with children aged 6 months to 12 years of age. I love working with children because they are always on the go and exploring the world around them, it is a joy watching them learn and grow. Once my husband and I moved to Florida I started to nanny for a family of 5 they had twin girls age 2 and a son age 8, whom I still babysit for on occasion, especially when they go out of town. Since I have been in Florida I have babysat for multiple families on multiple occasions. The number of children I have watched at any given time ranges from 1-4 with ages between 2-13 as well as several with autism and/or ADHD. I have adapted to each situation and the same few families request my help on a regular basis. Each and every child needs attention, patience, and kindness. I do arts and crafts and read with the children as well as play with them whether that be, outdoors, video games, Legos, or board games. I do have previous first aid and CPR experience as well as a clean driving record and background check.

Hi! My name is Leah Becker and I am looking to get back into babysitting. I currently work in the Rutters Kitchen (and have been for the past 3 years.) And I only work 1-2 days a week there so I have lots of time for babysitting. I have plenty of experience with kids and have had a year of paid babysitting. I love kids, I am great with pets, and I am always happy to help around the house with cleaning, dishes, etc. A little bit about me: I have an identical twin sister. I live on a farm and have horses, goats, and sheep. I love riding and showing livestock. I’m willing to travel up to 45 minutes away, possibly more depending on the circumstances. Thank you!

Hi there! I'm a caring and enthusiastic sitter with a genuine passion for working with children. I love engaging kids through fun activities, sparking their imaginations, and supporting their endless curiosity. Although I haven’t been a professional sitter, I bring 4 years of hands-on experience caring for children from 11 months to 10 years old. I am trained in First Aid and CPR, and I’m comfortable with cooking, cleaning, laundry, potty training, nap routines, homework help, and supporting children with special needs. I’m reliable, patient, and committed to creating a safe and positive environment for every child. Feel free to reach out for references or any questions!

Hi, I’m Alicia! I’m 20 years old and currently in my third year of earning my degree in English Secondary Education, with the goal of becoming a middle school teacher. I really enjoy working with kids and creating a safe, fun, and caring environment for them. My experience comes from babysitting my 7-year-old neighbor, where I helped with playtime, snacks, and keeping her on a routine. I’m responsible, reliable, and patient, and I’m happy to help with light tasks around the house as well. I’m mainly looking to babysit for occasional evening events, such as date nights, where you can feel at ease knowing your kids are in good hands. While I haven’t paid to add the background check to this website, I do have all of my clearances through my education program since I often observe in school districts. I’ll be happy to provide these documents upon request or once hired. I look forward to helping your family by keeping your children safe and entertained while you’re away!

im currently attending Lehigh Carbon Community College and in the year 2027 I will be graduating with my RN in the nursing program. i have always loved kids, being around them, being a role model to them, and just how much i love seeing their smiles. Kids have always been an easy connection for me as to why i considered being a teacher. as far as experience i haven’t had a job with an actual company but i have been watching my cousins kids since they were just born. she had 3 girls who were close in age and i still watch them until this day, the oldest being 13. i also have watched some family friends children and my family is always complementing how well i am with children. i have been through experiments such as, diapers, bedtime, sickness, feeding, and any other baby needs. i am CPR certified and currently work with a company for older aged people.
