Hi! My name is Kathleen and I am a kindergarten music teacher in the Norristown Area School District (as a PA certified teacher all clearances available upon request). I grew up in a large family of six kids and have always enjoyed working with children. During high school, I began camp counseling during the summers and professionally working with children. In college, I started babysitting for families with toddlers and elementary-aged children. When I graduated, I began teaching music, working with children grades 1-8. Now I currently work with kindergarten children aged 5-6. Outside of teaching music, I am a very active individual. I enjoy cooking, baking, reading, performing on voice and piano, exploring museums and new places, playing guitar, and sports. I recently received my black belt and have been training in martial arts for five years. I also enjoy playing volleyball and frisbee in recreational leagues with friends. As a sitter, I've always enjoyed providing the best experiences for families and their children. I am not the kind of sitter who is going to be content doing the bare minimum. I really genuinely love helping families and engaging and creating quality activities for children. Especially during the warmer months, I love taking children for time outside like walks to the park or playing soccer or tag in the yard. I've enjoyed building new lego creations, baking cookies, and drawing and painting. I also have no problem cleaning and doing house work, I actually enjoy it. However, I will always ask if it's okay though. I also have no problem making snacks and food for children. I've always treated each child and family as if they were my own and always make sure to deliver service with the utmost respect and care.

Hi! My name is Jordan, and I’m 26 years old. I’ve grown up around childcare my whole life, so it's fitting that it is becoming my career. I have my own vehicle, I can cook and bake pretty well, and arts and crafts is a happy hobby of mine. I’m an athlete, so I love going out and playing. Babysitting is awesome, and I want to leave every kid with a good moment, time, or even memory. Currently I have about four part time families I am working with, and I am looking to fill in the gaps. I can be here for a longer commitment, or a one day event. Either way, I would love to hear from you! Please reach out to connect!

We can’t say enough good things about Jordan. We came into town for a wedding and we were nervous about how our 4 year old son would respond to a new sitter. Jordan FaceTimed with us beforehand so our son would feel more comfortable, and met up with us the day before with stickers she knew our son would love. The day of the wedding not only was she incredibly flexible but she also came a treasure trove of toys, art supplies and games. She helped us feel comfortable and made our son feel safe. At the end of the night she even picked all our stuff and brought it from the venue to our hotel without us asking. Above and beyond in every way. Can’t recommend her enough.

Turquoise is wonderful. She’s worked with my family since my son was three months old. My son loves her and she’s been a great addition to my son’s life. I cannot say enough wonderful things about her and her professionalism.

Hey everyone. I have a ton of experience love animals and children of all ages I do prefer to begin with younger children(infants, preschoolers and s hool aged children) it's fun however, with my patience, humor and common sense I can handle anything. So ready to take care of your children I took some time off due to a position ending and now I want to return. I miss my daily routine, reading, being outdoors, learning activities, going for walks, tummy time (if infant), games, puzzles and interactive play. I love to laugh have fun and mix it up with learning activities. I am reliable, have a clean background on file and cpr first aid certified, tdap, flu and I'm vacinated for covid. Please reach out if this interests you. Thanks for reading! Also, I have a reliable car..

Hello, my name is Jenn and I'm a 52 year old mom with lots of childcare experience. I'm fun, caring, compassionate, easy going, responsible, and reliable. I absolutely adore children of all ages and have cared for newborns to school age children. I like to teach through playing and help kids reach their age appropriate milestones. I've worked with special needs in the past. And I've helped with speech delays. I know baby, children, and adult CPR although last certified in 2020. I'm extremely clean and always tidying up. I cook very well also! I'd prefer hours around 8am-4pm but I'm absolutely flexible. I'm with a wonderful family I've been with for a little over 2 years. I've been blessed with loving and caring for a 2.5 yr old and 10 month old, but mom has been blessed and leaving work to stay home with kiddos. So with a broken heart I'm available mid March.

Lauren is great to work with. She is sincere, communicative, trust worthy, and does the job with her whole heart. She took care my three months old for several months last year and is still actively caring for our now toddler. I greatly appreciate her and highly recommend her.
Abigail P.

Hello! My name is Abbey, and I recently relocated to the Philadelphia area after earning my Architecture degree. Before college, I spent five years as a professional childcare provider, starting as the lead teacher in an infant classroom and later moving up with my class into the toddler room (12–18 months). So, I have the most experience caring for children from 8 weeks to 3 years old. Childcare has always been a true passion of mine. I love getting to know each child's unique personality, supporting their development, and building meaningful relationships with both children and their parents. I truly believe there is nothing more rewarding than watching little ones reach new milestones, grow in confidence, and develop into their own unique selves. Leaving my childcare job to attend college was one of the hardest decisions I had to make, and I still make a point to visit my old daycare babies whenever I'm back home! Now that I've finished school and am settling into Philly, I'm looking for a wonderful family to build that same lasting connection with through a full-time nanny position. Outside of nannying, I'm a small scale lighting designer/maker, and creativity is a big part of who I am. I love bringing that creativity into everyday life through hands-on activities, crafts, imaginative play, reading, and encouraging curiosity and a love of learning. My goal is to create a home environment where children feel safe to explore, create, and grow while becoming a dependable, long-term part of your family's support system. I am happy to help with general household tasks, meal preparation, and pet care, and I have reliable transportation. I am also Better Beginnings certified and trained in infant CPR and First Aid, and I am dedicated to providing a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children can learn, play, and grow. I would love the opportunity to become a trusted part of your family and look forward to meeting you!

Abigail worked for our family for a couple of years. We loved her so much, and she was such a joy to work with. Anigail treated our kids with so much love and kindness. Our children still talk about Mrs. Abbey to this day. You will not find a better nanny for your children.
