We traveled into the area for a family wedding, and Anastasia was an amazing babysitter for our group of 5 kids from multiple families. She brought fun activities for them to do in the hotel, played games outside, took them swimming in the hotel pool, and ordered & fed them dinner. Our kids had a blast and raved about Anastasia . She was a great communicator during the hiring process and throughout our event. We highly recommend her to others!

I am a married mother of two daughters who are grown and out of the house. I am interested in helping you with your babysitting needs. I am available evenings and weekends. I babysit either in your home or my home. I have done overnights in my house and in the family's home as well. Although I am not available during the day, I would ask that you consider me for evenings and weekends for date nights etc. I am off on Fridays and babysit as needed during the day. I have my Child Abuse Clearances as well as a Criminal Background Check. I live in the Shiloh/West York area. I work full time at Wellspan Health during the day. I am babysitting for several families on an as needed basis for extra income. I love children. I am very hands on and like to spend quality time with the children I babysit for. I am a very loving nurturing person. It is my desire to babysit for so parents have the reassurance that their children are in the hands of a mature trustworthy person I have over 10 plus years caring for multiples - twins and triplets. In the past I have cared for 3 plus families of twins and 4 families of triplets. I’m also very experienced with infants As I mentioned these are not on a regular weekly basis, but as needed. I am definitely available for evenings and weekends for occasional date nights. Please consider me for your babysitting needs. Lisa Bowman

We have really enjoyed working with Veronica. After engaging her services, she was proactive about setting up a visit before her first job with us to get to meet my family; this really helped put my mind at ease. She was very prompt. Without being asked, She clearly documented the activities she went through with our then 3 month old infant throughout the day. I appreciated that she read a lot of books to him and kept him engaged and calm while I worked. Veronica has a gentle, kind manner and she is very easy to communicate with. I will highly recommend Veronica.

Julia B., Child Care in Columbia, PA 17512 with 6 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Julia Bradley, and I’m 21 years old with over 6 years of childcare experience working with children of all ages. I’ve spent the past 4 years working in and out of two different daycare centers, where I gained hands-on experience in creating a safe, fun, and structured environment for kids. I’ve also worked as a summer camp counselor, which helped me build strong skills in keeping children engaged, active, and entertained. I’m currently a junior in college studying early education, so working with children is not just a job for me—it’s something I’m passionate about and planning to pursue as a career. I also play Division II lacrosse, so I’m very active, energetic, and able to keep up with kids of all energy levels! I have my own car, am very reliable, and take pride in being responsible, patient, and caring. I love helping kids learn, grow, and have fun in a safe environment. I’d love the opportunity to work with your family!
