I am an energetic and caring Mom of 2 boys in kindergarten and preschool that loves the joy and hustle that children bring! I have been a SAHM/working part time more for almost 6 years as well as having over 15 years worth of babysitting experience. Prior to my own children I held a full time position as a police officer and still work part time. I am looking to help with care for someone who may be in the same predicament that I have been in the past where you need someone responsible and trustworthy!

About Me & My Experience I’ve been working as a nanny and childcare provider for the past 4+ years, caring for children of all ages — from newborns to teens. My experience includes: • Babies & Toddlers – 2 years caring for infants in Colombia, plus 1 year caring for a 4-month-old here in the U.S. (including specialized care during health complications, regular doctor’s appointments, and developmental support). • Preschool & School-Age Kids – Full-time nanny/house manager for a family with twins (ages 3–6) and their older brother (9–12), handling everything from school prep and activity drop-offs to organizing the home and keeping routines running smoothly. • Children with Autism – 3 years as the primary caregiver for two children with autism (ages 3–6 and 9–12). I learned how to adapt routines, create sensory-friendly activities, and support emotional regulation with patience and compassion. • Older Kids & Teens – Comfortable supporting homework, sports, and extracurricular schedules, as well as fostering independence and responsibility. Along the way, I’ve gained strong skills in emotional intelligence, behavioral management, and keeping kids engaged through fun, educational activities. I have my own reliable transportation, and can provide excellent references from all the families I’ve worked with.

Hi, my name is Olivia and I am currently a senior at Bishop Canevin high school. I will be attending W&J in the upcoming fall as a freshman. As a childcare provider with four years of experience, I'm passionate about making a positive impact on children's lives. My calm and creative nature allows me to connect with children easily, providing a nurturing and engaging environment. I believe in open communication with parents and follow their preferred methods to discuss their child's day or any concerns. I'm comfortable enforcing household rules and enjoy a variety of games, from outdoor sports to board games. With First Aid and CPR training, I prioritize safety and well-being. I'm happy to assist with cooking, carpooling, and light housekeeping. I'm comfortable caring for children ranging from infants to preteens. As someone who grew up a younger sibling and nieces and nephews, I have experience caring for different age groups. I look forward to getting to know your family and providing reliable, high-quality care for your children.

Hello- My name is Connie and I’m a single mother of two adult children. I am a non-smoker and I love pets! I have my bachelor’s degree in psychology and a master’s degree in education. I did four years of nanny work when I resided in North Carolina from 2017-2021. Currently I work full time, with flexible hours, as an admissions advisor for a university therefore I’m looking only for part time work. Aside from the few years I lived in North Carolina, I have resided in Westmoreland County all my life but recently moved into West Allegheny school district. I have always enjoyed children and feel my life experiences in raising my own along with being a nanny for two doctor families will assure your children are provided with utmost care.
